He's on a nice run over his last 10 games, with good strikeout numbers and a low ERA. WHIP is a little high (1.35 range).
If he can continue to get that type of pop out of his fastball, Lamb can be a useful MLB starter. He's got a good feeling for pitching, his changeup is good (and plays off of 92-93-94 much better than 87) and has a decent-enough changeup.
