1. JRVJ Posted: July 26, 2011 at 03:50 PM (#3885717)Don't let Keith Law read this.
Considering his HR/9 is 1.3, that may still be apt. I do recall reading that a disproportionate number of his homers were solo shots, though.
Yeah, Steven Goldman hung that on him when he pitched for the Yankees.
We can send him up against Shelley Duncan in the ex-Yankee Ugly Off ...
Please, Tyler Clippard walked away with that award a long time ago.
Dear god, I never want to think about that 2007 pitching staff again.
On the other hand, I'd rather have Karstens in the rotation than Clippard...
As far as I can tell he hasn't really changed his pitch selection, but his peripherals are better than they've ever been (FIP of 4.42/xFIP of 3.89 compared to 4.85/4.73 career), particularly his walk rate.
Maybe he's developed into a decent mid-rotation starter, but I'd guess he'll be closer to a 4+ ERA going forward. Nothing wrong with that.
