I don't buy that our players increase their intensity for Felix's starts. How many games have we seen in recent years with virtually no run support for a great Felix outing, ending in a loss or ND? Carlton won nearly half of the Phillies' games in 1972, and pitched about a quarter of their innings, 346! The Phillies were the worst team in the league. Were their hitters any better/worse than ours? I expect more from Felix, the my bar for him this year starts at 20 Wins. With the acquisitions this off-season, I don't want to hear any excuses. I expect leadership from him that makes players better around him.
