Maybe a down year, but still throws 103 mph and had a good campaign in 2016.

0.54 ERA the year before? 0 blown saves? Yeah he sucks
He had a .230 BABIP that year and his FIP was near 2. 7th in RP in WAR behind Chapman

In other words, he is dependent upon a great defense for his numbers.  Yes, he induces weak contact, but with a poor defense his numbers would be quite pedestrian.
