Guzman: AAAA player, good in minors but not good enough in the majors.  Cubs brought in many pitchers and he likely won't pitch in the majors this year unless half the staff breaks down. Which is quite possible because they are the cubs.

McGowan: Has hope if put in bullpen, could become the 2nd Joe Nathan if brought on right. He has a nasty curve but can't control it starting.  Nathan was a terrible starter but he became a great closer after a few years in the pen.

Volquez: Borderline 4th-5th starter a lot like Benoit was.  He has no breaking pitch and could end up a long releiver.

It's called an asterisk, you moron.

Janssen for TOR?  Where do you see him falling into the mix over the border?

From what I've read Janssen, Marcum, and McGowan are going to all start the year in AAA with the newly acquired Ohka and Thomson having the inside track on the 4th and 5th starters spots.

I watched the majority of Janssen's starts last year, and I think he's a 5th starter/long reliever at best.

It looks like if one of the veterans goes down Marcum will be first in line to get called up.  Depending of course on how things go in spring training and whose pitching the best at Syracuse.
