Oddly enough, this was the fifth consecutive outing in which the star lefty gave up exactly two runs. Should the Rays win Wednesday's play-in game against the Indians, Price will likely face the Red Sox in Game 2 of the ALDS on Saturday.","date":"Mon Sep 30"},"fullName":"David Price","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"The reigning American League Cy Young Award winner, Price is a pitcher who was still trending upward statistically even as he concluded his outstanding 2012 campaign. Consider that he was 14-for-15 in quality starts with nine wins, a 2.20 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and 108 strikeouts the second half of the season, and from a year-over-year standpoint, he has increased both his strikeout-to-walk ratio and his average fastball velocity in each of the past three seasons. Oh, toss in the fact that his ground-ball rate has risen accordingly in the same three-year pattern, to the point that it was higher than 50 percent in 2012 (52.4, to be exact), and Price has become a high-strikeout, ground-ball-inducing dynamo, minimizing his risk of regression. Wins might be a difficult category for American League East pitchers -- Price's 20 carried a healthy chunk of value in rotisserie -- but that might be the only category in which he stands to suffer any noticeable decline. Now 27, he is a member of the game's elite, and he should be drafted as such.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Wed Feb 20"},"playerRater30DAY":2,"playerRater15DAY":1.5,"positionRank":31}
