The Austin Davis hype train has started gathering steam. It’s mostly thanks to his performance the other night in the Phillies’ 16 inning marathon win against the Dodgers. Davis came on in the 14th inning and threw two effective innings, getting three strikeouts in the process. From there, the appreciation tweets started rolling in.
How about Austin Davis? He has to be trusted over Morgan in high leverage spots, right?
