When he's been healthy, O'Day has been very good this year.   Since April 13 he has a 1.90 ERA, 0.80 WHIP, 11.8 K/9, 4.4 K/BB.    You really can't complain about that!    We just gotta keep him on the field.    

Exactly. If he can stay healthy and effective, then we could shed his salary and get a good prospect along with trading Brittan (if he proves he is healthy) and Brach.  We could well have the three best relief arms available if the stars align the right way!

Can we package Davis with him...

[Frobby]

Most games, I watch O'Day and he's the exact same pitcher who dominated from 2012-15.    He's still very stingy with hits (30 in 44 IP), and he's still racking up the strikeouts (11.3 K/9).    But he has days where his command isn't sharp, and on those days, he's more vulnerable than in the past.

Another scoreless inning for O'Day.  For August and September, his ERA is 1.42 over 19 innings.

[Frobby]

While there weren't too many bright spots towards the end of the year, for me, Darren O'Day's strong finish was one.   In August and September he threw to a 1.14 ERA, 0.84 WHIP, and 11.0 K/9.   His  command seemed very sharp the last couple of months.    Hopefully next year he can avoid any health issues -- I think he can still be a key component to our bullpen.

My 9-year old can a write a better sentence that this...

"The award is given each year to a player who reflects the values, integrity and dedication to serving our country that Bob Feller possessed."

I agree that DOD had a nice end to his season.  One more year on the contract?  Or two?

Postgame Quotes from Showalter, O’Day, and More After Loss to Tigers

O’Day mystifies me.    He looks unhittable a lot of the time, his K/9 is really good, but he’s gotten homer-prone the last couple years.   I still think he could have a really good season, but yesterday — ouch!    Very disappointing.

I think that he'll have a good season, too.
