WTH 25-Man Roster - Pitcher Update

And now let's check in on the pitchers from the WTH 25-man roster. [Note - The What the Heck 25-man roster was compiled through reader votes throughout the off-season.]



Fernando Abad was our lefty reliever. He has since gotten promoted to Houston and is now on the DL. Jason Chowning was promoted from Lexington to Lancaster. Alex Sogard was promoted from Lancaster to Corpus Christi. And Chris Hicks was activated from the DL at Corpus and promoted to Oklahoma City.

Jason Chowning leads the WTH roster with a very impressive 13 SO/9. Chowning and former teammate Dayan Diaz both still sport sub-1.00 ERAs. Chowning and Chris Hicks also have sub-1.000 WHIPs although Hicks' is based on far fewer appearances. And finally, Chowning leads this roster with 10 saves and is tied in number of appearances with Juan Abreu at 20.

Of the starting pitchers, Paul Clemens leads the crew in wins with six. Nick Tropeano leads the WTH Roster in ERA and WHIP. Mike Foltynewicz, who was not voted to be on the WTH Roster, actually has more wins than Clemens with seven and a lower ERA than Tropeano (2.14). Dallas Keuchel leads the crew in innings pitched (75.1).
