Yeah, looking at his stats for 2007, he was very good for sure, it just seemed like he was always getting out of jambs with that funky delivery. I don't recall the 'inherited runners' thing being an issue until after 2007...
I always liked him as well, for some reason. Just seemed like he did a lot with really not much stuff or velocity.

I remember fantastic stats except for one important one. Inherited runners scoring. I still liked him, but damn he always let other guys’ baserunners in, if my memory serves me. And I don’t remember him as being instrumental in the play-offs. For some reason, I still like the guy even though I don’t think he was that great, ever.

I mean, he was pretty much lights out in 2007 and really good in 2008, and so-so since then.
