Lester is so amazing.

It’s wonderful to watch him pound the strike zone with all of his pitches. He’s really come a long way from the days of loading the bases every two innings (it seemed) and completely losing command for innings at a time. I used to hate watching him pitch – now seeing a Lester start is a thing of beauty. /Gushing
