I just drafted Clayton Mortensen in a dynasty league (we had a special draft for the 2007 draftees). Is he as good as his numbers suggest? The only thing I can find about him is a rumour of a "power sinker" and that's it.

Well he was 22 in A ball last year so he was a little old. And he's had 1 solid start and 1 crappy start in AA this year as a 23 year old. He wasn't electric in college either...solid but not electric. Not sure I'd get overly excited about him.
I like Mortensen. Depending on where you drafted him, Mortensen is definitely worth taking a flyer on and storing on your minor league roster. With St. Louis' aging staff, he Mortensen definitely will be seriously considered as a starter in the bigs.
Jody, Jody Davis. Hits 'em high and far. Jody, Jody Davis. He's a superstar. Holy Cow!!!! http://www.stinkytee.com
as far as i know he is a groundball pitcher who can get the K every once in a while. I like him to be a decent 3-4 starter, maybe like an Aaron Cook with more K's and a better ERA
