I am simply pointing out that he does walk guys and he gives up a lot of dingers, 2 traits that outweigh the high K totals. I give him credit for being so durable - the broadcast said he's 3rd last five seasons on starts behind only Shields and Scherzer.

Thanks for adding the clarifying context.
I'll add that Kennedy's walk rate is very average - fewer than 3/9 is solid.
