Danny Farquhar – Hot

Danny Farquhar has been a disaster for much of the 2015 season, however he was superb this past week. The 28-year-old right-hander hurled 4.2 perfect innings in relief for Seattle. Farquhar struck out 4 and walked 0 across 4 appearances.

Lord Farquhar has not had the same success in 2015 that he had in 2014. Farquhar was one of the better setup men in baseball a year ago, but he has spent the majority of the summer in Tacoma. On the season, he is 1-4 with a 4.67 ERA through 38 appearances. His strikeout to walk ratio has dropped from 3.68 in 2014 to 2.41 this season.

This season has really hurt Danny’s bottom line. He is eligible for arbitration for the first time this offseason, but based on his lackluster numbers, he is unlikely to cash in.
