In response to "no, i don't think so. i think they are thinking he is for sure gone after this year though, because they won't be the top bidder." by TFox

  - Me saw him first. RAR! -- nm - CC Sabathia Dec 16, 17:27
I think he'll be fine, but he had an off year last year. less Ks and more BBs. Kind of seemed he lost a mph or 2 on his fastball -- nm - CQ draped in tinsel Dec 16, 16:52 9
- actually,he's had the same K numbers the past 3 years. His ERA just jumped -- nm - CQ draped in tinsel Dec 16, 16:55 8
  - yeah, I saw the k's were consistant, the walks were rising - groiny Dec 16, 16:56 7
    - ERA is such a weird stat. He has almost identical numbers the last 2 years. '09 era 1.85 '10 era 3.85 -- nm - CQ draped in tinsel Dec 16, 16:58 4
      - for my purposes ERA is useless. I need WHIP and slugging against. nm -- nm - groiny Dec 16, 17:00 3
        
        That's a little scary though, with the escalating walk rate and HR rate. -- nm - TFox Dec 16, 17:01 2
        
        HR rate is less a concern than his loss of command. - groiny Dec 16, 17:02 1
        
        the thing is, i wouldn't call it bad control. its nibbling. he's always close, but juuuuust misses. - TFox Dec 16, 17:03
    - also worth noting that he had a great July and August, but collapsed in Sep/Oct along with the rest of the team. - TFox Dec 16, 16:58 1
      - exactly. and his numbers last year are very similar to Bard's except for ERA -- nm - CQ draped in tinsel Dec 16, 16:59
His walk rate was up some from 09, which was up from 08, but not catastrophically. -- (link) - TFox Dec 16, 16:51 3
- I have been offered him in a strat o matic keeper league for a great price. - groiny Dec 16, 16:58 1
  - It would seem he's guaranteed saves for at least 2 to 2.5 seasons more. - TFox Dec 16, 17:00
- thanks to you both. nm -- nm - groiny Dec 16, 16:55
