    Does Tyler Chatwood finally turn into an ace this season???

    The guy has phenomenal stuff and finished with an 8-4 record last season but is it reasonable to think he might get to 15 wins this year?

    An Ace, as in #1 starter?

    Are you out of your mind?

    He'll be luck to have an ERA under 4.5---

    In fact, I don't think you can find a model that has him under 4 anywhere.

    CAIRO, RW, RC, Steamer-- all have him over 4.5, and with 130 IP.

    Far far far far cry from being a staff ace.

    Ace and Colorado Rockies don't go together. Even if you had great stuff pitching half your games in that stadium ruins your ERA.

    De La Rosa is the undisputed ACE maybe Brett Anderson if he returns to his old form..

    But in my opinion ACE does not have to mean you are the teams #1 starter...

    Many teams have more than one "ace"
    Verlander and Scherzer are both aces.

    King Felix and Iwakuma both aces.

    Grienke and Kershaw both aces.

    Strasburg ,Gio, J-Zimmerman all 3 are aces.

    You think Chatwood is going to put up numbers like Kershaw, Strasburg, Verlander, Lee, Darvish?

    Chatwood wouldn't be in the Top 30 pitchers in the NL this year.... he may develop into one-- but he isn't right now.

    no i am not necessarily predicting that. But his stuff is pretty legit.
    i think he may just lack the mental fortitude of the pitchers you mentioned but stuff wise he is close.
    Pretty explosive fastball at 95-96mph

    his style reminds me a bit of Roy Oswalt and Tim Lincecum.

    they actually have a solid rotation but I'm not sure about Anderson in Colorado. Not easy to make the transaction from Oakland to Colorado. They have enough talent to win 75-80 games in that tough division

    True. It will def be a big difference pitching in colorado vs Oakland...

    but opposing pitchers have to pitch there too.

    I could see them making the playoffs if that entire line-up stays healthy which is a huge
    "IF" .... it seems Morneau and Tulowitski go on the DL every single year.

    He has a lot of talent but has had extended DL stints two years straight now.
