Daniel Bard used to be one of the top relievers in baseball. He appeared in nearly 200 games from 2009-11, posting a 154 ERA+ and striking out nearly 10 batters per nine innings. In 2012, the Boston Red Sox tried moving Bard to the rotation -- and that’s when everything went left. He faltered over 17 appearances (10 starts), walking more batters than he struck out. He pitched in two more big-league games in 2013, and has subsequently bounced around the minors, hoping to rediscover his control.
