Here is the gobbledy-gook that we have come to expect from GM Neal. In speaking about newly acquired Dana Eveland, GM Neal tells us that Eveland "has shown the ability to be an effective major-league starting pitcher. He has an interesting four-pitch mix, and we feel this acquisition is a potential upgrade for our current rotation with the upside of years of control and improved production."
A "couple if years of control" means that Eveland will come cheap.
Don't you just love it?
No word on whether or not Eveland's xFIP stats show him to be just a "couple of feet of ground balls" away from being as good a pitcher as Roy Halladay or Walter Johnson.
