Let's see...Duchscherer has a grand total of 27 starts at age 33 and hasn't been healthy for years, Guthrie is a lower paid Jason Marquis. Matusz looks like he's gotten it. Arrieta still has a long way to go and put up a K/BB ratio of 1.08 and a 1.53 WHIP. Bergesen is okay. Tillman was worse than Arrieta. The O's need one of the Arrieta/Bergesen/Tillman trio to really get it, Duchscherer to be healthy like he's never been before and a bounce back year from Duke just to be average.
I'll take the Nats rotation.
guthrie last year: 3.83 ERA with a 1.16 WHIP.
zimmermann is as big of a question mark as any of the o's young starters and coming off injury.
