Pelfrey vs. Marcum - 2013

I think that this is a fair and appropriate thing to track over the season. . .both are under One Year-$4 million contracts.

Did Sandy make the right call? It's obviously early, but so far the answer is "no".

Sandy made the call I would have made, so I can't be too judgmental on this one. But it's worth seeing how this pans out.

I would've signed both.

But at the time of non-tendering, they didn't expect Pelfrey to be ready, which was probably reasonable given that 4/1 was less than a year from Tommy John. I think these 'fast healers' like Pelfrey may be worth more than they seem.

Yup. This.

And still believe he will be vindicated.

At least until Marcum pitches, Pelfrey is the winner for as long as he has a positive w.a.r.

Just wait til Piechucker forgets his mouth guard and gets launched into the Target sign.

A BB-R WAR of -0.2.

Go, Marcum! He might win this one sitting down!
