He's got command and HR issues, but so long as he doesn't go the full Maurer on us, he's OK.

No, he’s not ok. He’s basically a zero war pitcher for his career, which was negative war last year. And his velo has dropped from 94.1 to 91.8 since 2014. Studies show velo never returns and drops in velo absolutely correlate to poorer results

A zero war pitcher is pretty good for that price.

Probably so

Pitches well early in the season, trade at the deadline or when someone has a bullpen meltdown. Get back prospect. Wash rinse repeat
