WTH 25-Roster - Relief Pitchers (Narrowing Down our Options)

As posted over the weekend, LF Jordan Scott won the 14th spot on the WTH roster.  Also receiving votes were Jake Goebbert, Brandon Meredith and Kellen Kiilsgaard.  For more information on the WTH Roster, go here.

This week we're not going to vote for a final spot on the roster, but we're going to narrow down some of our choices for Relief Pitcher.  There are quite a few pitchers who haven't been included in a poll yet because they didn't pitch enough innings last season to qualify or, in the case of Jack Armstrong, they didn't pitch at all.  I would like to give some of those players a chance to compete with some of the others that received votes in earlier rounds.  For example, Matison Smith has some eye-popping strikeout numbers, but didn't make the earlier list due to a cut-off on innings pitched.  Similarly, Evan Grills has good overall numbers and, at only 19, I think he deserves a good look.  And then there's Zach Dando with one of the stingiest WHIP's in the Astros system.  We'll put the high vote getters from this list up against the runners-up from prior votes (Alex Sogard and Jason Stoffel, for example).

I know it sounds confusing because it is!  All you really need to know is this.  Vote up to five times for those pitchers you would like to see make it to the next round for a final vote.  With all that said, here are the 2011 stats for the players.  Look them over and vote.
