Watching him try and nibble at the corners with his shitty fastball was just awful

That seems like another very smart SP signing similar to the Minor/Lynn ones where they got under market price for the production by focusing on the predictive stats instead of the results. 10 milly a year is nothing.
Minor/Lynn/Gibson this year for $29.3mm combined is awesome.
His BABIP has been .330 three times in the past four years, seems like a him problem. His HR/FB % is one of the highest in baseball over the past 4 years. He walks too many guys, gives up a lot of hits, he is a turd
