Greinke here... the most underrated starter in baseball, yes?

I can see the argument for Liriano as well, but the elbow's a bit worrisome. Felix, eh. I want to see him do something before I pay #1/2 starter money for him.

Not really. According to rookies' MDP sheet, Greinke could go in the 11th round, which would be fantastic, but in some Cafe mocks I've been in, it's not unusual to see him taken in the 9th round.

Felix. Kid will turn 23 opening week of the season.

Went with the King.

Also went Felix, figure him, Liriano, and Gallardo are all similar but Felix doesn't have a major injury history.

I voted Liriano. I'm concerned about the injury potential, but I think it's worth the gamble here because he could be that good. I'm not sure how I feel about Felix, his WHIP is iffy and the Mariners don't figure to win too many this year. I wouldn't be surprised by another 9-11 wins and a WHIP pushing 1.40. I don't know if his ERA and Ks will make up for it.
