Great article. I think the extended storyline is that Max and Justin Verlander both have a chance to crack top 10 in all-time strikeouts this year. The countdown for Max is 103 to pass Walter Johnson, while Verlander needs 94.
Would be great to see him do that this year in a Jays uniform. The other milestone is Max needs 122 innings to hit career 3,000 innings pitched .
if he gets to 122 innings, career stats say he should be close to 103 strikeouts. If he hits those, I also think that the Jays are having a great season!
