Who's arm goes KER-effin-SPLAT?

No picking Purke or James just because you bought a huge stash of Wheeler or Matzek.

I'm betting at least 3 of these pitchers don't come anywhere close to expectations.. so..PICK THREE.

Can I pick anyone but Purke since he is playing for my team next year?

That is very acceptable. I would suggest Tyler Matzek.

a vote for all of them would be more accurate than a vote for none of them

Just curious why is Purke on here? He is now a college arm, the rest all went pro I believe.

I thought that was the case, but had already posted the poll. I had a faint recollection of some screwed up signing where Bud Selig got involved?

Either way, it was a bit of a brain fart on my part.

Edit: I went back and edited, and it did exactly what I'd expected. Dereted some votes.

He signed, but since the MLB bailed out the Rangers they wouldn't let them pay him that high over slot so they had to give him another lower contract which he turned down and went to TCU.

Knowing that both of his brothers' arms have gone kerplat, I would say Zach Wheeler. While genetics is not an exact science, if Jacob and Adam's arms have torn, then Zach has pretty good odds of having the same thing happen. I played with Jacob in High School and Adam blew his out while playing in the Yankees minor league system. I play with him now in a semi-pro league. Good guys!
