WTH 25-Man Roster - Final Starting Pitcher

As posted over the weekend, the 20th player added to the WTH 25-Man Roster was OF Domingo Santana.  Also receiving votes were Austin Wates, Jacob Goebbert, Emilio King, Neiko Johnson, Teoscar Hernandez, Collin DeLome and Jay Austin.  For more information on the WTH Roster, go here.

This week we're going to pick our 5th and Final Starting Pitcher.  This list was compiled of those who received votes in the last round of voting.  Personally, I would like to have another lefty in the rotation and Kyle Hallock with his 8.90 SO/9, 3.59 SO:BB ratio, 2.63 ERA and 1.216 WHIP would be the most logical candidate.  But I also really like Nick Tropeano (10.63 SO/9, 2.36 ERA, 1.181 WHIP); Nick has recently gotten some love from Baseball America and from Jonathan Mayo as he landed on their prospect rankings.  But we can't forget about the 19-year olds ~ Adrian Houser with one of the best fastballs in the system and  Luis Ordosgoitti with his 10 BB to 49 SO in 2011.  Finally, I'm looking forward to seeing what a healthy Vincent Velasquez, Tommy Shirley and Tanner Bushue can do, and I'm expecting improvement from Ross Seaton this year as well.

With all that said, here are the 2011 stats for the players.  Look them over and vote.
