With his injury history and age (33) does anyone see him adding significantly to his counting numbers? Only 1200 IP (less than Mariano Rivera) does he have a realistic chance of getting to even 2000? Only 1500k's which is a great ratio but I'm guessing he caps out at 2500 if he's lucky. His raw numbers are just going to be so small that his superb ratios and percentage numbers aren't going to cut it.
The only way he makes it is if his next five or so seasons, are absurdly good. Where he's somehow able to replicate what he did in 2018 or 2019, for five consecutive years, which knowing his track record, is a long shot.
