I'll be watching. I really enjoy watching him pitch. Especially when he brings his A game.

MLB.com is calling this a spot start but with the state of their rotation, he could stay a long time with a good start tonight.

I thought Godley pitched ok last night. Blue jays crazy hot team, particularly Donaldson. Hung a curve ball to him and he made them pay with a 3 run homer. Godley struck out 6, gave up 4 runs, 3 earned (caused by his error trying to pick off runner at 1st). Sounds like he will get at least 1 more start.

Yea, it wasn't near as bad of an outting as it sounds. He started out great. Got outs from 8 of the first nine batters. Then he hung a few. Other than the 3 run HR, it was solid. Lineups like the Blue Jays have will make you pay for a mistake.

@Dbacks: Zack Godley is looking to become the 1st player in #Dbacks history to win 7+ games in his first 10 career starts.

Which he was able to do.
