OK, I'm counting arms and now I have too many. Please vote for whom, you think, is the odd man out.

Should there be a Poll?

When I see 5 names, I'm wondering if there is an odd man out. Have the Fish expressed an interest in returning to the 4-man rotation of yore?
I think you'd need a 6th guy for there to be an odd man out. I also think that some background info on each pitcher's stats, strengths or something of the like would be helpful, in order to garner a better discussion.

I guess he's the odd man out, then. *takes a bow*

Sergio Mitre is missing.
If the thread starter requests (here or via PM), then his name can be added.
Since this is under CE, rather than the Florida forum where forumers may be more familiar with them, I was hoping that the thread starter would've offered some reason why someone (presumably not Dontrelle, of course) would risk not being on the roster, such as being demoted to the bullpen.

Could this be for a fantasy league? Out of the five that are there, I would say Nolasco. But I'm not gonna vote yet, because I don't think the poll is correct.

I think they are all a little bit "odd", so I want to vote for all of them. :)

Ricky Nolasco isn't all that great, Mitre always had the potential but struggled to develop it.
sign an FA and dump then both.

Dontrelle Willis....he's in his arbitration year correct? And will garner a some more money.....something the Marlins dont want to do, and come his contract's end he will want wads of cabbage, so trade him and get some young guys for him, like a centerfielder....maybe not the odd man out, but if youre going to trade one might as well trade the guy with the biggest potential contract who will garner top talent.

I'm getting the impression that if Dontrelle is going to be traded, his stock will be higher before July 31st when teams will be hungrily making offers and his recent arrest will be forgotten. Right now, I think that the trades made before the deadline may work.
Either case, they could trade him now, but I don't see that. If they did, I'd expect a host of young talent to offered in exchange for his services. It should work out well for both teams.
By your logic (potential future income), I'd also agree that D-Train would be the odd man out.
