Expert Note
View More NotesIt was a weird year for Sale, who started out with major velocity concerns, only to bounce back before eventually cratering again and succumbing to an elbow injury. His 4.40 ERA was nearly a run and a half higher than his 2.93 xFIP, and he continued to limit baserunners and strike out batters with the best of them. It's all on his elbow right now in terms of your evaluation of him - if you trust he's healthy, he's an easy top-10 pitcher. Monitor reports closely this spring but unless we hear negative reports, draft him to be your ace.
