WTH 25-Man Roster - Starting Pitcher

As posted over the weekend, the 16th player added to the WTH 25-Man Roster was C Jordan Comadena.  Also receiving votes were Ben Heath, Roberto Pena, Ernesto Genoves and Franny Polanco.  For more information on the WTH Roster, go here.

This week we're going to pick our 4th Starting Pitcher.  This list was compiled of top vote-getters from prior rounds of voting.  I love this list.  After subtracting Jake Buchanan, Dallas Keuchel and Jarred Cosart, who have already made the WTH Roster, there is still a great deal of talent remaining.  I really like Nick Tropeano (10.63 SO/9, 2.36 ERA, 1.181 WHIP) and Kyle Hallock (8.90 SO/9, 3.59 SO:BB ratio, 2.63 ERA, 1.216 WHIP).  Adrian Houser, who doesn't turn 19 until 2/2, has one of the best fastballs in the system.  Luis Ordosgoitti had 10 BB to 49 SO in 2011 (at only 19).  By all reports, Paul Clemens is ready for the bigs now, and Brett Oberholtzer isn't far behind him.  I'm eager to see 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.
