"5/6 - Rogers, Happ, Redmond, Hutchison, Stroman, Nolin"
-Rogers is a gascan
-Happ is fine as a swingman or a spot starter, whatever
-Redmond will clearly get hammered next year. 29 year old with marginal velocity and marginal stuff. Guy just throws fastballs down the heart of the plate 65-70% of the time. Will get hammered next year.
-Hutch, Stroman, and Nolin are all question marks.
"Depth" to me is being able to run out guys who can be relied on to give you 150+ innings of reasonable production. Maholm has gone 150+ innings in 8 straight seasons. He'd be a great get.
Since 2006, Maholm is 65th in baseball in WAR. Not bad at all for a low price.
