00:04This season, that four combination, Pomerantz, Thielbar, Keller, Flexen.
00:09122 ERA.
00:1188 and two-thirds innings pitched.
00:14Opponent 461 OPS.
00:18Zero home runs.
00:21Dang.
00:21I feel like you just jinxed it on the home run stat just because it's a zero.
00:24That one's coming off the books in the next week or so.
00:26Oh, I wasn't the only one who pointed that stat out.
00:28Oh, no, no.
00:29I agree with that.
00:30The thing that's interesting about those four guys is those are guys you made decisions on.

00:57ERA last year.
00:585.32.

01:01ERA this year?
01:021.85.
01:04That's very different.
01:05So you get this feeling that everything is coming up.
01:09Craig Council and everything is coming up.
01:11Jed Hoyer.
01:12Not only in going and getting these guys, but also in the usage of them as they've been key
01:17and why the Cubs are having such a great season, why they are in first place.
01:21Why they are in first place.
