*Top upcoming SP?*

[jmgchips]

Could anyone please list the upcoming SPers that should make good appearances in the majors? Thanks.

Besides the obvisious Verlander, and Liriano...

Chad Billingsley
Scott Olsen- Worried bout the lack of offense.
Yusmerio Petit- Same as Olsen (won't put up huge K numbers ever.)
Jon Lester
Jeremy Sowers

Those are some guys to keep in mind for this year...

Petit <<<<<<<<<<<<< Olsen, I dont think Petit will be that good ever.

Guys to make big impact this year? Cain + Verlander. Liriano is coming out of the bullpen this year, he'll make his starters splash either near the end of the year or in 2007.

To me Petit is overated. He has low velocity and plus change that gets him by the minors. His deception in the delivery has carried him but I'm not sure he can get by on that in the majors with his 88-90 mph fastball (I know know, I jamie Moyer does it).
