He's expected to gradually increase his pitch counts in subsequent starts before being re-evaluated by the Cubs and activated from the DL if everything checks out fine.","date":"Wed May 1"},"fullName":"Matt Garza","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"Garza was on quite a two-year run for the Cubs before a stress reaction in his elbow ended his 2012 prematurely. His 293 strikeouts from the beginning of 2011 through July 21, 2012 (his final start), ranked ninth best among National League starters. Increased reliance upon his slider contributed to the K's -- and perhaps also the elbow issues -- as he threw the pitch 23 percent of the time in 2011 and 26 percent in 2012, with 51 percent of his K's in those two seasons coming on that pitch. Winter reports on his health were good and all signs pointed to him being ready for spring training, though perhaps with him a couple days behind the Cubs' other starters. If Garza is indeed healthy, he'll be one of the sneakier, albeit riskier, middle-round options, great on a rate/per-game basis in points leagues, and the Cubs likely will be pleased because they've had a desire to trade him for some time. A trade might do him some good: On any other team, his skills might spawn a greater win total for the right-hander.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Wed Feb 20"}}
