George Klassen does not pitch deep enough to support a high strikeout total. He is averaging 4.2 innings a start over his last 5 and 8.9 strikeouts per nine — neither the rate nor the opportunity is doing much work, and he is usually pulled before a third look at the lineup. A total set off season averages will not know that.
