All signs point to a jump in numbers for Hampton that are completely unpredictable.
His ERA and WHIP will go through the roof as if it were the Rocky Mountain thin air. He never did have great strikeout numbers. His numbers at home last year were much better on the road, i.e., he seems to have trouble pitching on the road. Well, there is always that 22-win total he posted two season ago. He is also a guy who throws a hard sinker and good cut fastball, inducing a lot of ground balls.
