That maybe the same thing can be said of Aaron Laffey, his peripherals look strikingly similar to Doug Fister so far (with the exception being that all of his pitches have a positive run value by fangraphs).  This is still admittedly very early, and coming a day after he got to rack up his swinging strike rate (he got 6! last night) against a lineup that was likely swinging for the fences with reckless abandon after going from an 8-2 deficit to a 13-2 deficit while Laffey was in the game.
Still, it's nice to have seen Laffey hold it together while half the bullpen can't seem to stop falling apart.
