Pomeranz has a spotty health track record himself. The overall number five pick in 2010 by the Indians out of the University of Mississippi, he was traded to Colorado in the Ubaldo Jimenez deal in August 2011; shortly afterwords, he underwent an appendectomy, though he did return to make four September starts. Coming into 2012 ranked 30th on BA’s list, he batted hip and quad ailments, making 22 starts but totaled just 96 2/3 innings as the team experimented with a four-man rotation and 75-pitch limits. He finished the year with a respectable 4.93 ERA (94 ERA ) and 7.7 strikeouts per nine, though his 1.3 homers and 4.3 walks per nine were both cause for concern. He made just four big league starts and four relief appearances in 2013, missing over a month and a half due to biceps tendonitis; he also made 16 starts in the minors, 15 at Triple-A Colorado Springs, where he put up a 4.20 ERA while whiffing 10.1 per nine. Overall in his big league career, Pomeranz has a 5.20 ERA with 7.6 strikeouts per nine in 136 2/3 innings.
