The Bounce Back Pitchers
The Fantasy Sports Forum.com
Our Bounce Back Pitchers list is comprised of players who were one-time fantasy studs and have fallen off the top of the list due to recent injuries or off-year. Expect a return to form from these ten hurlers, who should be mid to late round picks in most drafts.
1. Randy Johnson, SP, Arizona
While no longer worthy of an early round pick, Johnson showed how effective he can still be based on his small sampling last year. In just 56 innings, he had 72 Ks, 4 wins and a 3.81 ERA. Now recovered after another back surgery, The Big Unit can still rack up the Ks and if he stays healthy, is capable of winning 15 games for the Diamondbacks.
2. Ian Snell, SP, Pittsburgh
Snell’s win total dropped from 14 in 2006 to 9 last season, however his ERA was almost a full run lower at 3.76. Except for a mid-season slump, Snell was the victim of poor run support in 2007. With that being said, he still plays for the Pirates, so he won’t be on his way to a 20 win season, but do expect more wins and about 170-190 Ks.
3. Ben Sheets, SP, Milwaukee
Injuries have plagued Sheets for the past several seasons, limiting him to only 141 innings in 2007. However, with his arm healthy, he's capable of posting 17-20 wins. In just 24 starts last season, he was 12-5 with a 3.82 ERA.
