Well.. you dont think going from a 20 game winner and dominating ERA to an almost .500 record with an ERA near 4 isnt a huge drop off? I think it is.. Unless he goes 13-0 with an ERA in the 1's the second half he isnt coming close to what he was last season.. and you gotta look at what he has done before last year.. 12 wins was the high, and i know he was a reliever for a while but still.. Now that he was a full time starter last year maybe he snuck up on some people, but this year he has been FAR from the same.. K's still there though
We basically agree that he isn't as good as he was last year. We disagree on how much worse he is. Thats fine. All I know is that I still don't like seeing him on the mound when we're playing Minnesota.
