    Overview

  • Experts rank this player at 23rd among SP's. Based on his stats from the past 60 days, he is currently ranked 160th.
  • The current leader among SP's is Mason Miller
  • Can't be doing much worse than he is right now. Failing to live up to expectations is one thing, but playing this bad is another.

  • Currently ranked 124th in ERA with 4.88

  • At this point in the season his numbers compared to last years: W: -12, L: -12, WHIP: +0.244, ERA: -1.447, K's: -195, Walks: -54
  • The season is still young, expect things to change quite a bit.
Breakdown J.C. Mejia

    Overview

  • I couldn't find any stats of this player even playing a game in the past 60 days. This is most likely due to an injury or time in the minors.
