If you look at his ERA after June 1 every year, he's pretty much lights out after. He's just always a little sluggish the first 2 months of the season. But Aftr June 1, he's barely hittable

I don't think he'll be 4.50 early mainly from getting to face hitters who haven't seen him much or at all and getting to pitch to the pitcher instead of a DH. I do agree with you he'll get better as the weather heats up as a lot of Latin American players do.
