Furbush pitched to contact more than usual last season, resulting in a steep decline in strikeouts but a marked improvement in ERA and WHIP on the strength of a career-high 1.56 GB/FB. He stranded all 16 of his inherited runners and posted 29 scoreless outings in 33 appearances, though a .137 BABIP points to regression. While his strikeout rate declined, his K/BB was still a strong 3.4 because of excellent control for the second year in a row. Furbush pitched only 21.2 innings thanks to a slightly torn rotator cuff that sidelined him the whole second half. He is expected to be healthy for spring training and should again pitch in a setup role. The southpaw destroys lefty batters (.105 AVG, .255 OPS) but is also effective against right-handers (.139 AVG, .577 OPS). There's also a chance he could be in the mix for saves if Joaquin Benoit and Steve Cishek suffer injuries or underperform.
