When the Indians traded for Derek Lowe immediately after the 2011 season, I thought it was a pretty shrewd move. They were buying low—PUNS!!—on a pitcher who had run into some incredibly tough luck during the 2011 campaign. Atlanta seemed a bit eager to cut bait with him due to his terrible close to the 2011 season: from August 2nd until the end of the season, opposing batters hit .316/.370.485 off Lowe over 57.2 innings resulting in a 6.24 ERA.
