I agree that he's gotten away with a few gopher balls. But it's not as big of a deal when you avoid walks. He might have more trouble when NL teams see him a few times, but his career numbers suggest that the LD% will drop back to around 20%. For what it's worth, Curt Schilling had a fine career with a 22% LD%. In 2001 it was 24%--and he finished 2nd in Cy Young voting with a 7.5:1 K/BB ratio.
