2010 Fantasy Baseball Projections

W	SV	IP	H	ER	BB	K	ERA	WHIP
9	0	178	197	91	60	119	4.60	1.44

The sinkerballer's GB/FB has been declining for three straight years. Derek Lowe's control (2.91 BB/9) tanked; 2008 BB/9 hid negative trend there. Some bad luck bit him, too, but bottoming out of dominance raises red flag. He found some mechanical flaws this offseason that might have been contributed to his down year. His cost shouldn't be high, but his return likely isn't, either.
