| Matt Capps's 2010 Profile | | Sort of a stealth relief stud, Capps entered 2009 with a 3.06 ERA and a 1.06 ERA in 217 1/3 innings as a major leaguer. Unfortunately, nothing went right last year, even though he was throwing harder than ever before. He often touched 95-96 mph with his fastball, yet he kept getting hit, pretty much all season long. He was especially bad in non-save situations, amassing a 7.40 ERA. Despite his struggles, Capps wanted a raise in the offseason, but the Pirates decided he was being unreasonable in his demands and non-tendered him. Now he’s a National, and he’ll enter camp as the heavy favorite to close for the team. Pitching in a ballpark that’s less kind to left-handed home run hitters should do him quite a bit of good, and given that there’s been no drop off in his stuff, it seems pretty likely that he’ll be a perfectly fine closer for the Nats. While that probably won’t mean 35 saves, he should be an asset in ERA and WHIP. | | Year | Tm | G | GS | IP | W | L | HLDS | S | K | ERA | WHIP | | Proj | WAS | - | - | 68.0 | 3 | 4 | 1 | 29 | 54 | 3.57 | 1.18 | | 2009 | PIT | 57 | 0 | 54.1 | 4 | 8 | 1 | 27 | 46 | 5.80 | 1.66 | | 2008 | PIT | 49 | 0 | 53.2 | 2 | 3 | 0 | 21 | 39 | 3.02 | 0.97 | | 2007 | PIT | 76 | 0 | 79.0 | 4 | 7 | 15 | 18 | 64 | 2.28 | 1.01 |
