It's pretty impossible to be awful and K 41 in 25 innings. The guy is missing bats big time, he's just had control issues and has made some bad pitches. He's also been aboslutely bombed 3 times, which inflated that ERA.
I'm not expecting Degrom to walk out tonight disguised as Quintana, but my 1982 VisiCalc database says he will pitch a lot better than you're expecting.
