His xFIP is 4.18, his SIERA is 3.97. Those are pretty solid for a #5 starter. His problem has been the long ball. Unfortunately Coors Field isn't the best place to try and change that  :?

I'm hopeful he pitches like he did against the Orioles/Phillies/Braves/Dodgers (all his good starts in May) but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't apprehensive for tonight's game.
