It was going to be the best season of his career and he was shaping up to be a hellaciously great 8th inning guy before the injury sapped his skills. If he bounces back, he’ll be a hellaciously great closer again instead.

Through August 2, he had a .73 WHIP, a 33% K pct (10.8K/9IP), 10:1 K:BB ratio, a .462 OPS against, and a 1.70 ERA. He was doing amazingly well, but no one seemed to notice. (I didn’t.) The fact that he took his “demotion” so gracefully, after doing so well, speaks volumes about his character.
