King Felix

Listening to XM Radio's Fantasy Focus with Jeff Erickson, a caller asked whether he should keep a 19th round Felix hernandez or a 16th round Ryan Zimmerman, and the host responded that Felix Hernandez was a the better protect.

My first thought was, "Go down with that ship!"

My next one occurred after Mr. Erickson rationalized it by citing Hernandez's age and some decent peripherals.

I thought, "Is pitcher's age the same as hitter's age? Do pitcher's who make the pros very early improve the same as hitters who do?"

I do not know the answer, but there is no glimmer on "King" Felix for me.
