Gavin Floyd

I noticed a lot of people picking up Gavin Floyd in my leagues lately, which makes me happy. His 2.93 ERA and 1.08 WHIP have duped people into thinking he's a good pitcher. Yes, he has good stuff and could be a good pitcher at some point, but right now he's walking more batters (27) than he's striking out (25). That ERA and WHIP are going up, my friends. Beware.

UPDATE: Well, Floyd went and proved me wrong today (kind of). As a regular reader of this blog, he was annoyed to see me picking on his K/BB rate, so he posted 7 K with o BB today in six innings against the Indians. However, his ERA and WHIP did increase, so I was right, but for the wrong reasons.
