Thompson has a better fastball and a better change-up than Lannan.  But Lannan obviously has great moxie and a pretty solid curve.

Yeah, they have some differences, but they're both lefties with similar pitch speeds and very similar deliveries IIRC.

I'm leery of rushing him because the Marlins did that (put him at AA at 20 yrs old) and he struggled mightily.
