My 2 cent add is Rick Romero and Mat Latos.
Romero is 7-1 in his last 8, with an ERA under 3.5. He's beaten the Phillies, Yankees, etc. Kid is legit and should be amongst the AL ROY candidates, in my opinion.
Latos has looked great in his first few starts. Granted he's pitching in front of a suspect defense, a terrible offense, but PETCO park always helps... FYI, he is going to be tied to a pitch count and pulled in a few weeks to save his arm, so figure he pitches thru August and gets pulled. Despite being a homer, I like the way the SD roation is lining up for 2010 and beyond. Latos, Richard and Poreda. young sexy studs, watch out NL WEST!
