This wasn't the happiest of endings for Correia, whose season
This wasn't the happiest of endings for Correia, whose season had otherwise been one of the most surprising fantasy stories of 2009. A fringe-y pitcher with the Giants early in his career, the 29-year-old joined the Padres on a Minor League deal in Spring Training and promptly set about pitching his way into mixed-league viability. His 12 wins were by far the most of his career, while his 142 strikeouts in 198 innings and 3.91 ERA and 1.30 WHIP were solid enough to earn him some back-of-the-rotation run even in competitive mixed leagues. Most encouragingly, Correia improved as the season wore on, running up a 3-0 record and 1.25 ERA in five September starts and winning five of his last eight decisions.
