Naa...not liberally at all. He is a stud. I rank him no. 9 closer going into the season. I project him to be top 5-6 closer this year. In his first year, he had 8.9 k/9 and 18 walks in 55 innings. In minor league, his stats were: 12.88 K/9 and just 1.66 BB/9 in 108.1 innings. That's studly any way you look at it.
I had him last year in both WZ leagues and he was pretty darn good for me. I did pick him up as a FA but overall was quite pleased with him.
Yea, he is pretty impressive. Regardless of stats - if you watched him close, he's pretty dominating when he is on. Strikeout machine! I love his potential over any closer left on the board.
