No way. He is wearing down as evidenced by his numbers this season. The Mariners are doing to him what we did to Meche. The team is lousy so when he starts they have to get as much out of him as possible leading to around 104 pitches every time he starts and well over 200 IP every season. He is a beast but they have been running him into the ground. I personally wouldn't take that risk especially with Billy's production and salary vs. Felix's less long term deal which would see us having to pay him $40 million over the next two years and then he becomes a FA.
