He resumed throwing in January, putting him on track, but he'll need to be monitored closely during spring training before being much more than a speculative AL-only end-gamer. Remember, Braden is a command specialist, not an overpowering type, and any adverse effect on that part of his game might result in unsavory ERA/WHIP numbers. The smart play in early drafts is to pick his spots, extracting primarily the home outings against weaker offenses. Could he be an every-week AL-only play, and a mixed-league matchups option? Perhaps, if he's looking 100 percent come March.","seasonId":2012,"date":"Fri Feb 10"}}
