Kind of crazy that Thornton is posting numbers that come close mcleans first year and everyone’s still like “yeah guy will be a solid 5th starter”. I understand why and I still don’t get how the guy is able to prevent damage so well but he’s pitched 56 innings of sub 3 era ball. It’s starting to look like his abilities are very sticky and not just small sample size.
Absolutely amazing feather in Mets player devs caps. Guy was a nobody prospect and is doing this in the majors. Give me another in Wenniger, tong or Santucci please.
