The Player
The one time Mariners nemesis, Derek Holland had an excellent rebound season in 2018. In his 171.1 innings, Holland struck out 169 batters while posting a solid 3.57 ERA. In addition to striking out nearly a batter per inning, Holland also saw his command improve greatly from 2017, dropping his BB rate from 5.
