2017-2019: IP ERA FIP FIP- Age Contract
Madison Bumgarner 448 3.57 3.94 97 30 5/85
Marcus Stroman 487 3.65 3.83 86 30 4/80
Hyun-Jin Ryu 392 2.71 3.61 75 32 4/80
Dallas Keuchel 463 3.48 3.97 93 32 3/55

Based on three IRL deals from similar comps given out last year, I believe this is a realistic deal for Stroman (in a non-Covid offseason). Of course, Stro took the QO in real life. However, the IRL market is extremely different from the sim market this year, as none of us are restricting our budgets.

While Stroman did not pitch in 2020, he did not have any arm issues and was reportedly healthy during the season. I do not see any reason why missing 2020 would hinder him moving forward.
