The Victors

I would have traded him last year. I acknowledge he is an absolutely elite prospect according to almost everyone. I understand his pitch velocity and spin measures are near off the charts. I just think he has been more hittable at advanced levels (consistently) than you would expect given the underlying numbers. And I really just think it is his short arm delivery makes every pitch easier to see for MLB hitters.

Maybe I am wrong, but I would have sold on him a long time ago. I hope I am wrong and he becomes a dominant starter for the Tigers. I'm just not holding my breath.
