Agreed. Funny thing is, Tommy Hunter was thought of as a quick-to-the-Majors prospect out of Alabama, it was really only out of necessity that the Rangers wanted/needed him as a starter. I remember a lot of scouts figured his rapid ascension through the Minors would be as a bullpen arm.
Glad he's doing well. Perhaps he's found his niche.

While it stings to see him throwing 98-100(!), I'm happy for Hunter.
