Holland missed the majority of last year after injuring his knee while playing with his dog in the offseason leading up to the 2014 season. Holland came back to make five starts at the end of the year and went 2-0 with a 1.46 ERA over 37 innings of work.

Including his five starts in 2014, Holland has posted a 40-21 record since the 2011 season for the Texas Rangers.

According to RotoChamp, Holland is projected to go 10-7 with a 3.61 ERA in 2015. If the Rangers’ offensive players can remain healthy, Holland could very well get the run support to get up to 13 or 14 victories.
