Rincon

Minor league deal aside, have you seen his stats from 2004? No exaggeration, he should have received AL MVP votes.  11.7 K per 9 IP rate, 3 - 1 K to BB rate, 80+ IPs, 1.02 WHIP.  Guy was dominant. 

Yes, I realize that was 5 years ago and Juan is now a 4.5 K per 9 IP, 2 - 1 K to BB, 50+ IPs and 1.5 WHIP pitcher.  Not to mention that every single statistic has become progressively worse every season since '04.  He literally projects as 40 IP, 1.7 WHIP, 6.00 ERA and 1-1 K to BB.  Ugly - he'll fit right in!

oh yeah - I should add that he spent some time on the steriod mend

right about the time his stats fell off a cliff. Makes sense how he can be sandy koufax in 2004 and denny bautista in 2008
