CF552, there aren’t as many choices as you think. Here are the 40-man pitchers who may start with Memphis. Most are lefties. No real proven RH depth unless Hudson doesn’t make the club.

Starters:
Thomas (L)
Liberatore (L)
Hudson or Woodford

Relievers:
Pacheco
Walsh
Cabrera (L) or Naughton (L)
Romero (L)
Misiewicz (L)

One needs to pick the 13 pitchers you think will make the MLB team and go from there. Individual player decisions are not made in a vacuum.

P.S. I don’t buy the “throw away games” argument at all. If Woodford is on the team, it would initially be in long relief. It isn’t like he is the only option for that role.
