After posting a 3.16 ERA in 42.2 innings at Tucson, he has now yielded two runs in 7.1 innings with a 9:1 K:BB ratio in three appearances since his call-up last Friday. Expect him to act as the Padres' long man out of the bullpen for the foreseeable future.","date":"Thu May 23"},"fullName":"Tim Stauffer","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"Stauffer was hoping to build on a promising 2011 season, which featured a career low 2.6 BB/9, but was derailed by shoulder and elbow woes. After struggling all summer, Stauffer had surgery to repair his flexor tendon last August but is supposed to be fully recovered for the 2013 season. He returns to San Diego where he'll have the luxury of Petco Park at his back. To wit, Stauffer's Petco career ERA is 3.06 with 6.6 K/9, 2.4 BB/9 and 0.7 HR/9, compared to a road ERA of 4.75 with a 5.8 K/9, 3.7 BB/9 and 1.2 HR/9. If Stauffer looks strong in the spring, he is a legitimate matchup play if you can use him almost exclusively for home tilts.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Thu Feb 21"},"playerRater30DAY":-1.2,"playerRater15DAY":-0.4,"positionRank":146}
