Can Hunter Brown Take His Resurgence Even Further?

No matter how you slice it or dice it, Hunter Brown’s start to the 2024 season was awfully concerning. A 9.78 ERA and 5.73 FIP in his first six starts placed him in demotion territory, with only a lack of serviceable starters on the roster likely keeping him on the active roster. Considering how his 2023 season unfolded, well, it wasn’t a great spot at that time for Brown. We all know by now how a sinker he implemented into his arsenal during his May 5 start against the Mariners set the tone for the remainder of the season.
