FACTS/FLUKES: Bieber, C. Vázquez, Clarke, Pinder, Festa

Bieber isn't dominating like in 2019 and 2020, but still effective... In 2022, Shane Bieber (RHP, CLE) has a 3.39 ERA, 1.11 WHIP, 25.1% K%, and 5.6% BB% in 124.2 IP. Even with Bieber's injury-plagued 2021 season, his ADP remained high into the second or third round. Although we can't expect the elite numbers in 2019 and 2020, what do the skills indicate about Bieber's sustainability?
