How do NL starting pitchers fare coming to AL mid-season since 2011?

Now that Red Sox have traded for Drew Pomeranz, what should the expectations be for a starting pitcher coming from the NL to the AL season mid-season.

I went back to 2011 to see which starting pitchers moved form the NL to the AL during the year.

First the combined results of the 10 pitchers that moved form the AL to NL.

ERA rose more than 0.60, WHIP increased by 0.06..

Now the detail of each starting pitcher.
