The Angles have been waiting for Kazmir to regain his form, but I am starting to believe he is never going to get back to being what he once was. When he was with the Rays Kazmir was a borderline Ace, but now he is a guy who tops out at 85 on the radar gun, and on top of that has poor control.
Kazmir opened the season going 1.2 innings allowing 5 runs on 5 hits with 0 Ks. It took him 63 pitches to get through 1 2/3 innings. It is really just sad at this point, and the Angels need to cut their losses. The only thing keeping him in the rotation is the fact that he is making $14.5 million left on his contract, which finally runs out after this year. It's pretty crazy to think he is only 27 years old and his arm is already shot.
