the bisons roster outlook

Starting Pitching: Donnie Ellis is the leader of this ragtag bunch my scout thinks the 24 yr old righty can be a 3 if he lives up to his potential he went 3-8 last year, his first in the bigs, with a 5.55 era. My thoughts: keep for now

Enrique Macias: This 26 yr old lefty anchored our rotation last year in his best year yet winning 13 with 3.39 era. Unfortunately he is making 4 mil this year which is a lot 4 a guy who my scout thinks is a flash in the pan. My thought has 4 pitches keep 4 now maybe july trade bait

Jorge Pimental 28 yr old right hander pitched good in first yr starting winning 10 with a 4.79 era but i dont see much upside here. I need an upgrade

Fernando Zapata: another guy who pitched up last year doesnt have the stamina to start may try him in long relief.

Prospects:
Angel Garcia: Pitched at double a last year looks like the real deal 11-6 2.9 era in 25 starts needs to work on control and his 4th pitch but should be up in 2 years hopefully thats it

Relief pitchers with these guys just listing the ones worth a damn

Tony De la Cruz rhp through 94.1 innings last year and posted 2.48 era with 79 ks my scout says he could be a starter a mid rotation type but he really only has 2 pitches fastball 97-99mph with a decent curve 7 out of 10 and pathetic change up 2 out of 10. May give him a shot in the spring at starting but he is great in the bullpen. What do you all think?

Jorge Vazquez. rhp was beat up a little last year but that was cuz he was transitioning to sp will be in the rotation this year see if he can get the 3rd pitch to the point where he can be sucessful in that role

The rest of these guys are really just scrubs up next the bats
