Las Vegas - Everyone talks about Tyler Glasnow, Yoshi Yamamoto and Walker Buehler, but lemme shine the light on James Paxton. The 'Big Maple' came over to the Dodgers from Boston after recording a 7-5 record with a 4.50 ERA last season. But his start with Los Angeles has been PERFECTO. Paxton is 5-0 and pitching to a 2.58 ERA and his last two starts looked fantastic (12 innings, 1 earned run). Frankie Montas also switched teams in the offseason, going from the Yankees to the Reds. Montas looked like a stud the first two times out, winning both, but since that point, he HAS NOT WON a game. And his last two outings on the road have been a disaster, getting BOMBED for 10 hits and 9 earned runs in ONLY 6 innings of work. Staying in La La Land for another W.
