1. Milwaukee burnt his arm up last year.

I'll bet he ends up on the disabled list before the all star break.

2. He has always been a slow starter.

His March/April ERA is 4.51, almost a full run worse than his career ERA of 3.64. His ERA over the first half of a season is half a run worse than his career ERA over the second half. In other words, there's really nothing new here.

3. I'm sure it is quite easy to be rattled on the first day as a Yankee...

He's only human. Give him a few starts to settle down.

4. He doesn't pitch well in colder months like April and October. n/t
