Stars are a very coarse scale. Look at his performance and you can see more. He is declining relative to the skills in the league. Note how bad his stats are vs last season. Is he in a tougher league? Division? Are there better pitchers, perhaps a few that missed some time with injury? Edit: his raw ratings may look the same but his performance will decline against better players.

Bottom line; at 25 I'd have him as an average/below average middle reliever. Certainly not a closer.
