Well, no, its not what "Most pitchers" get. Considering that 4.5 is basically the average AL ERA. It is also not like saying he will get any win total as wins have nearly nothing to do with a pitcher's talent.

Daisuke will have a mid 3s ERA (3.3-3.7) with a K/9 of about 7.5, BB/9 of about 2.0 while giving up less than 1 HR/9. He will throw about 210 Innings.

A few weeks ago I launched my own blog about Seattle Sounders FC and Life in Puget Sound. I won't be by these parts often as my focus has changed. Sorry about the unannounced retirement.
