Mike Mussina is in better shape this year and his fastball is hitting 88-90, which is enough for him to put up 180 innings or so of about an average ERA.
That is what I said back in March.
Mike Mussina
13-6 (and it'd be better if the WOE hadn't been disguising as the NY Yankees during a few of his starts)
121.1 IP
3.26 ERA (126 ERA+)
1.212 WHIP
81 K/16 BB
Fluke? I think not...
3.57 xFIP
That stat is key right there. Showing he's not getting lucky and that he truly is pitching well.
And in his last 10 starts:
68 IP
2.25 ERA
1.09 WHIP
52 K/7 BB
With the luck the Yankees had trotting out Cracked Ribs and Bad Pitch Selection, Mike Mussina has practically made up for losing one of them.
God among men. I just hope he can continue this.
