Definitely watch for Kris Medlen if R. Delgado and J. Teheran don't make the final roster. He's been money whenever he gets the opportunity to be a starter.

McGowan hurt his foot today, Laffey got lit up, Cecil hasn't looked sharp and all of a sudden there's a good chance Drabek is back in the Jays rotation going north.

He's had a good Spring, but I keep hearing he'll stay in the pen to keep the innings down for Venters and crew.

I'd say it's definitely worth grabbing Matt Moore. He is my pick for AL ROY.

Out on a limb, eh?

Well, got Shelby Miller so if he blossoms this year or next I could have a nice little keystone to my dynasty.If not - then I am punting saves this year for nothing as that is what it cost me.

No. If Lynn flounders and Carpenter's not back then I'd guess McClellan gets starts. Miller only comes up before June if there's another injury. He has the stuff to be a #1, but he's probably still a year out. Maybe he goes Matt Moore at season's end, but it isn't something I'd bet on, just be happy if it happens. Selfishly, I hope he doesn't come up this year (but dominates the minors) so it keeps his keeper price down, then he takes the bump to start 2013. Prior years price factors into my keeper price so the more $1 years I can get out of him the better and I already have 2.

I know he has been mentioned on just about every sleeper list this year but Mike Minor is killing it in ST so far. Granted it is only ST but I think he has a streak of something like 14 scoreless IP. He has all but locked up a rotation spot and while he is rising on draftboards, he is still pretty low. If you can grab him as a late round starter I think it is a good risk to take.

For anyone that was lucky enough to jump on the ST hype for Mike Minor. Only 3 starts but 2/3 have been great and the control he has shown is encouraging. If he can keep the walks down, he is going to be real good value this year for anyone that got him.

Don't sleep on Latos.

Latos is asleep on the mound.

 

[urbanhack]

He has been mentioned in this thread before but what are people's thoughts on Chris Sale? He says he wants to pitch 200 innings but that is not going to happen. I've seen a decent amount of people hyping him and for this reason I ended up trading Aybar for Sale and Scutaro. Pretty minor trade of little consequence but just hoping maybe to hit lightning in a bottle with Sale.

I've owned Sale in dynasty since he was drafted but I wouldn't reach for him this year. He'll probably have to deal with IP and Pitch count limits and the White Sox won't be very good. He has good stuff and a odd delivery so he should provide decent strikeouts but his ratios are anybody's guess. I plan to use him in a spot starter role.

I reached for him.3 wins and sub 3 ERA at this point.

Parker is legit. Sonevabench.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Smyly is in the "keep an eye on" category right now. He has legit K numbers and everything else is going well with pretty impressive outings vs the Rangers and Yankees.
