His ERA seems to be trending up every season and I wouldn't be surprised to see it go above 4 this year. I hope I'm wrong.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I disagree. His era was in the low 3.00s and even well below it until late August/September. When he started having injury issues, he started battling himself and his season got away from him. <b>If he's healthy for a full year</b>, I expect him to be solid.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
That's another concern I have.

He's made 30+ starts 7 years in a row though. He's a horse. I mean any pitcher can get hurt, but I'm not worried about Z more than your usual pitcher.
