He has struggled with his command (6:4 K:BB ratio) and his first-pitch strikes are down from 60 percent last season to 33 percent this season. There have been questions about his health, but Bastardo maintains he is healthy and needs more work. \"I need more time on the mound,\" Bastardo said. \"With that time, I can make adjustments and get back to what I was.\"","date":"Wed May 2"},"fullName":"Antonio Bastardo","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"Bastardo burst onto the scene as one of the most unhittable relievers of 2011; his .144 batting average allowed ranked third at his position. Thanks to a darting slider and mid-90s fastball, he flustered both righties and lefties, although the one flaw in his game is an extreme fly ball tendency: He had a 55.0 percent fly ball rate, troubling for a Phillies pitcher. Bastardo has the skills to maintain low ERA and WHIP while racking up the K's out of the eighth inning, and he even served an adequate ninth-inning stopgap in June and July, when Ryan Madson missed some time. NL-only owners can find use for a pitcher like this, and mixed-league owners seeking a Jonathan Papelbon handcuff should look no further than Bastardo.","seasonId":2012,"date":"Fri Feb 10"},"playerRater30DAY":1.1,"playerRater15DAY":0.7,"positionRank":87}
