4 WAR in 2005 and had the highest IP total that season. Also, he had the stretch of like 14 or 16 straight quality starts I believe. He was huge for the Jays that season especially with Doc getting injured and Lilly sucking. Towers was fun to watch and he had impeccable control. He worked fast, hardly walked anybody and was someone that was easy to root for.
Also, he was the only Jays pitcher that had the balls to beam A-Rod. Yes it was with an 88mph fastball but who cares. He actually went out there and stood up for his team, which definitely probably demanded a ton of respect from players in the clubhouse.
