No, not at all. He's a throwback guy - a pitch mix pitcher who can throw a lot of shit at you to get outs.

But he scrapped the breakers in the 4th inning or so tonight. I'd guess Molina didnt like what he saw from them so they went almost exclusively fastball/changeup (really almost exclusively fastball fastball). That's the value a veteran like Yadi gives you.

It got him through 7 but it also meant he had no chance for 9. Ultimately I'd say his stuff is solid 5th starter type. Mike Leake-esque. That seems underwhelming but when Mike Leake costs $80 million, he can be damn valuable.
