2010 - Kevin Slowey 9-5 22 20 0 0 0 0 111.2 133 60 59 16 21 79 4.76 1.38

Kevin's start last week was his best in a month. Suffice it to say another quality start would be ideal. It would be just his seventh.

Slowey's had to pitch to contact a bit more this season than in the past, and he struggles when he doesn't keep hitters off-balance. Just like his last time out he needs to change location, change pitches and change the speeds those pitches are delivered. Change is good, Kevin. Change is good.

2010 - Felix Hernandez 7-7 22 22 5 1 0 0 160.2 138 56 51 11 45 145 2.86 1.14

Hernandez is a great pitcher, and on a better team he'd be gaining national recognition as such for how he's pitched this year. Comparing his numbers to Slowey's should make that pretty clear.
