Morris is easily the best pitcher outta that bunch and he sould get a lot of wins too if healthy, but i dunno about K's... thats where he would kinda fall a little short (even though he has K potential, hes developing into more of a "get the easy outs" pitcher)
as for K's Escobar, Penny and Wells can def throw some heat.... but you gotta eliminate Kip Wells cos hes on the Pirates (less wins). so i guess its a toss-up between Morris and Escobar, Penny... and personally id go with Morris cos Escobar and Penny haven't proven that they can consistantly deliver the puch-outs... Penny only had 140 Ks in around 200 innings last year and Escobar pitches better when hes not K'ing evryone (his K rate went down post allstar break last year but he pitched a lot better)
[size=10]Manny Ramirez....$20 million
Pedro Martinez....$17.5 million
Curt Schilling...$12 million (and a $2 million bonus)
Never hearing a Yankee fan chant 1918 again...priceless. [/size]
