“Teixeira is simply not the .300 hitter he once was. That said, he's still got major power and lots of runners to bat in with the Yankees.”

“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.”

“Tex Mex was never himself last season. He had a terrible cold throughout the start of the year, he was banged up and missed nearly 40 games. Despite all this, he still managed 24 HR and 83 RBI, and there is no reason to think he will not get 30/100 in that ballpark as long as he remains healthy.”

“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.”

 

“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”
