Cueto should display better control in his second start back from the disabled list when he faces the Cubs next week.","date":"Mon May 20"},"fullName":"Johnny Cueto","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"Two improvements have vaulted Cueto into the upper tiers of the starting pitching ranks: One is his continually dropping walk rate; his walks-per-nine rate has dropped in each of his five big-league seasons, his 2.03 number last year was 15th out of 88 ERA qualifiers. The other is increased stamina; his innings per start has risen every year, and his 6.58 number in the category ranked him 14th in the majors in 2012. He has finally arrived as a leading man for NL-only owners, and No. 2 option for those in mixed, despite having to call a hitter-friendly ballpark his home. There's no need for matchups-seeking here; Cueto is 16-for-24 in quality starts with 14 wins, a 2.21 ERA and 1.02 WHIP in 24 games at Great American Ball Park the past two seasons combined. He also had 25 quality starts on the road during that span, third-best in baseball, with a 2.86 ERA, meaning he's no worry there, either. If you didn't begin to last season, it's time to believe in him as one of the game's best.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Wed Feb 20"},"playerRater30DAY":-0.9,"playerRater15DAY":0.2,"positionRank":89}
