I think Pachecho, Izquierdo, and Duran are the ones to worry about at this point, with some others far away from the bigs. I am looking for some objective advice.

Duran could be good but I'm not sure whether he develops to his fullest or not. Izquierdo isn't going to be a great player but his high SI helps him. I would rate him above the other two to be honest. Updated Sunday, November 8 2015 @ 1:40:10 pm PST

I would look through free agency to find 23-24 year old pitchers that are recommended for AAA. Watch out for guys that have high SI's and are recommended for A ball. Look through their minor league stats and see what level they were pitching at when they were released.
