It's unclear if the sore back that forced Hernandez from his previous start is ailing him, but the injury may have negatively affected his performance. In any case, he'll next take the mound Saturday versus Texas, against whom he yielded three runs and struck out just five in 6.2 innings earlier this season.","date":"Sun May 19"},"fullName":"Felix Hernandez","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"If only the Mariners could score King Felix some runs. Wins are Hernandez's greatest \"shortcoming\"; he has only 40 wins combined the past three seasons despite a 2.92 ERA and 1.14 WHIP, because the Mariners have afforded him a major-league-low 3.50 runs per nine innings of support during that time. His skills, however, rival those of the best starting pitchers in the game. He's a workhorse, his 715 1/3 innings pitched the past three years combined are the most in the majors; he's coming off a year in which he set personal bests in terms of both his strikeout (23.8 percent of total batters faced, 8.65 per nine innings) and walk rates (6.0 and 2.17); and he has the ability to be untouchable on any given night, best evidenced by his major-league-leading 30 outings of at least eight innings allowing one run or fewer from 2010-12. If Hernandez simply pitched for a better team, he might be a candidate to be the first pitcher off the board in rotisserie leagues. In leagues that award quality starts, however, he's a more compelling candidate, having amassed the third-most of those from 2010-12 combined (73).","seasonId":2013,"date":"Wed Feb 20"},"playerRater30DAY":5.9,"playerRater15DAY":3,"positionRank":8}
