Are the OMA RP really > than the KCR RP.....?
A. First off, apologies for the clickbait-style title — bad habits picked up from too much internet.
B. Standard SSS (small sample size) disclaimer applies — this isn’t meant to be a deep dive like some of the incredible analysis many of you are known for.
That said — has anything like this ever happened in the history of the KCR franchise? Or any franchise, really?
The first five pitchers called up from OMA have combined for... wait for it... 23 innings, 0 earned runs. That's 2 wins, 0 losses. Just incredible.

What does this tell you all?
-
Do we have some legit arms stepping up right now?
-
Is this a key (if underappreciated) factor in the current win streak?
-
Is it time to question why Stratton (6.75 ERA) is still on the roster?
-
Maybe nothing at all, but quite possibly a feat that's never been done before in KCR history, and therefore worthy in it self of being highlighted, if for nothing else, its a fun fact during a fun period.
