Top MLB Prospects part 2 Pitchers

Jacob Turner SP Tigers
Turner is still a minor leaguer but within 2 seasons he could be a SP with a ERA under 4.00 and over 100 strikeouts.  I dont expect much this but a 5.3 ERA with 70 strikeouts and a 1.5 whip. 

Michael Bowden SP Red Sox
Right now he is a prospect but in a few years he might make the red sox rotation.  He is a future SP but if he sees big league starts a ERA over 5.50 and a whip over 2 is possible.

Jarrod Parker SP  Athletics
Parker played all of 2011 in the minors but a partatial 2012 experiment will tell us if he is ever going to star.  I think a ERA around 4.00 and a whip below 1.5 is possible

Mike Minor SP Braves
A late season call up had 5 wins in 8 decided games.  His ERA was under 4.00 and his strikeout/9 innings was about 8 per 9.

Mike Leake SP  Reds
Leake has played a few seasons in the bigs at age 24 and could be in for his best this year.  after a 12 win 9 loss season  he should reach 175 innings and 130 strikouts with a ERA over 3.50.

Bud Norris SP Astros
Norris took a huge step up last season but expect even more.  This guy had a ERA of 2.96 which is less than star yankee C.C Sabatha.  Norris also amassed 90 strike outs which compares to Jair Jurgiens. 

Matt Moore SP Rays
Moore was called up late and only got 9 innings of experience but amazed 15 strikeouts.  Expect 100 plus strikeouts, 10 wins and a ERA under 3.25.
