KS, I recall you writing of Keuchel--no one works harder. At the time, I remember thinking, that is great to see on a team, but hard work on its own doesn't guarantee success in an environment dominated by hard working elite talents. So, I didn't think much of how that testament to his character might translate into sustained success on the field, given his lack of a track record, and no other comments about his abilities.
Now I realize I should have been reading between the lines. Since your position requires that you always be measured in your discussion of your team, I should have seen that you saying that about Keuchel was your subtle way of screaming "OMG!!! Keuchel is a boss!! Get this dude on your roto rosters!!!!!"
I should have seen it, and I should have listened!
