Your 2009 Chicago Cubs

[Coldneck]

Last year, in 30 games started, RJ had 184 IP, 173 K, 44 BB, 3.91 ERA and a 1.24 WHIP. ERA+ was 117. His post all-star numbers were 86 IP, 78K, 2.41 ERA, 1.05 WHIP, .232 BAA. He also threw 2 complete games, which was more than any other Cubs starter.

His career post season record is 7-9, in 121 IP, 132 K, 32 BB, 3.50 ERA.

For a 1 year deal, I see no down side in signing him. After this year we'll have a new owner and should be able to sign a FA to replace him.
