August 11, 201411 yr QUOTE (Andy the Clown @ Aug 11, 2014 -> 03:55 PM) He may have had a couple decent years, but his walk rate and velocity did not bode well for the long term. At the time of contract extension? Really? Someone would have to get out fangraphs and look at his fastball velocity from 2008-2011, but I'm 95% sure it would show him consistently at 89-92 and sometimes touching 93. A lot of us questioned it, because it happened right after they extended Santos and then traded him for some no-name Blue Jays prospect and nobody really understood what direction the team was going. It SEEMED contradictory at the time.
