The thing cease did provide and he’s well on his way again is consistent innings. Amazing given the number of pitches he throws each inning but he has figured out a way to stay healthy. He’ll probably be near 175+ IP this year, his 4th straight above 150.
He did an amazing job on his health.
So he’s often a #3 pitcher but has shown his upside as a #1. Still extremely valuable when paired with his durability.
As a GM I’d probably still pay more for Garrett’s upside.
