“May be an anchor for your team's average, but output in other categories should more then make up for it”

 

“There are not many more automatic 30/30 players left in Baseball. B.J. Upton is one of those guys, and although playing in a new league could take some time for B.J. to adjust. He will always be able to steal bases like Juan Pierre in his prime.”

“You already know with Cain you are getting an ELITE pitcher with 200 K potential. 15+ Wins and an ERA under 3.00. Grab him with confidence.”

 

“Cain should be good for 220 innings of 2.90 ERA and 15 wins. He might have the best Home splits in all of baseball.”

 

“K/9 increase was due to a conscious change; increased K/9 vs. LHB last year by a wide margin; threw Slider 14% MORE often against LHB with 2-strikes. His strikeout looking percentage increased by 13% - a very similar set of increases”

 

“Premier workhorse dinged for lower K/9 upside than those SPs above”
