I don’t think it would shock anyone to suggest that Scott Barlow is having a good season. Then again, I’ve spent the entire season hearing about how he always goes through a cold stretch in a way that suggests he’s either had one or almost had one already this year. However, Barlow’s FIP for April, when he was very good, was 1.94. His FIP from April 30 through May 1 was 1.89. Since the Royals snapped the losing streak he’s put up a FIP of 0.95. So far this season Barlow has pitched in 21 of 42 games and he’s thrown 22.
