Which side would you rather have? WHIR

you don't get pitchers more consistent then oswalt. his defense is good and his peripherals are awesome. hamilton is a risk, sure. so is johan. he's got a bum elbow right now and had an FIP of 3.5 last year - it was his worst season of his career.

i still value johan slightly ahead of timmy but oswalt and hamilton are two sure things. pence is no such thing.

I would say Santana and pence, Santana plays for a playoff team and has good k's and wins, Oswakt is average in K's and this might be the year he has a collapse, Pence is slightly younger and less injury prone, plus pence is least likley to have a relapse, thanks for help with mine

Oswalt actually had more wins last year. You can't predict wins.
The K/9 is fairly close, 7.9 to 7.1. 7.1 DOM rate is above average.

Hamilton was out of bb for 3 years, so he's basically playing in a 24 year athletic body.

The difference between Hamilton/Pence, is a lot more then the difference between Santana/Oswalt.
