“Kuroda should continue to improve his Yankee campaign. 16+ Wins. ERA at 3.32 and 167 Ks is only the start to Hiroki who should now be more than comfortable with the most pressuring job in baseball. Do not let him slip, those numbers will get better.”

“Dempster in Boston is a good situation. Last season was very fluky with his all of sudden zero K rate. Look for him to bounce back to 180 Ks, with an ERA beneath 4.00, and the potential to win 15+ Games. He was amazing with the Cubs, but never got the run support. Texas he did not adjust quickly.”
