He's at his best when he's throwing strikes and letting hitters hit ground balls. His control seems to be significantly better as a starter (37 BB in 122.2 IP) than as a reliever (54 BB in 106.1 IP). He's given up more hits/HR per inning as a starter, though. http://www.baseball-reference.com/pi/psplit.cgi?n1=minerza01 Miner is now 11-8 with an ERA of 4.40 in 24 career starts.

Zach is making a solid case for the '09 rotation. He seems so much more comfortable as a starter. That was a pretty easy win. Zach is making a solid case for the ’09 rotation.
