I don't think that this guy will ever be of any true value. I would personally use him in the bullpen as a 2 or 3 reliever. He walks way too many guys to be effective as a starter. The upside is that he doesn't allow many hits. This is a hard one to determine if he is going to improve on his control but at his current age it looks like he has maxed out his ratings and will not reach his potential.

He is cheap for a reason. The AI knows that he is not a good pitcher and has him paid at the value that he is. At only 1.2M I would keep him as a reliever because of the excellent stuff rating.
