How many times has Wolf's profile begun this way? If healthy, Wolf will be productive. His value is entirely wrapped up in whether you think he can stay healthy. As he enters deeper into his thirties, realize the odds of this injury-prone pitcher keeping himself on the mound become longer. 10-0-3.90-1.30-110 in 150 IP

Positives / Upside	When the Dodgers signed Wolf prior to the 2009 season, they probably harbored few illusions that Wolf would pitch as well as he did. When he's healthy, there's a lot to like about Wolf, primarily that he can accumulate strikeouts without endangering other categories. He has now crossed the 30-start mark in two straight seasons, a hugely encouraging sign for Wolf.
Negatives / Downside	Of course, Wolf still feels like a sizable gamble. Sure he's been healthy the last two seasons, but he entered this two season stretch coming off four straight years of injury problems. Additionally, that Wolf enjoyed some luck on balls in play last year and his K-rate dropped a bit from 2008 are causes for some concern.
Recommendation	Only at a discount
Draft Position	206
