Davis as a 24 and 25 year old had a record of 23-20 for the Rays with an ERA of 4.26, WHIP of 1.36, 3.2 walks per 9 and 5.6 so per 9. AS a 26 year old in the bullpen he dramatically increased his so per 9 to 11.1 with walks increasing to 3.7 and WHIP of 1.095.
That is a good improvement over Hoch, especially has Davis should be better as a 27 year old pitcher than as a 24 year old pitcher. Davis even started a playoff game for the Rays two years ago, going 5 innings and surrendering 2 runs while striking out 7.
Shields will be a very good pitcher, for this to work out Hoch needs to go to arbitration, Royals decline.
Davis needs to go 13-9 with a 1.28 WHIP and ERA of 3.9.
