Danks said the mechanical adjustments, which actually went into effect during the final month of last season, have improved his command and added some sink to his fastball, in addition to resulting in more ground balls being hit.

Heis worth monitoring and should be considered in the later rounds of drafts for AL-only and deep mixed leagues.
