The one stat that I look at with him that let's me breath a little easier is his K% is at a career low of 14.6%. That combined with his pretty good walk rate tell me that he's seeing the ball, he's just not quite comfortable with his swing right now. OTOH, if he had 89 outs and half of them were K's you'd be talking me off my roof :) Colby’s linedrive rate is down right fugly.

Hopefully he keeps his power numbers up (.156 ISO) and uses those tools to improve his prospect status. I'm really excited about our starting pitching prospects listed above - Garcia reestablishing his value, Herron and Todd showing great control and healthy strikeout rates. Times are good. I'm confident Colby will turn it around. He got off to a slow start last year, too. Cream rises to the top. So do ice cubes.
