EDIT: I should know better than to trust Bowden, not scratched.

Vogey reries, Zito not retained:
Timmy resigns for 2 yr deal.
1) Cain R
2) MadBum L
3) Norris R
4) Timmy R
5) Surkamp? L
Gaudin has been great so far. If he keeps it up he would be far better than Surkamp.

Never understood the fascination with Surkamp. You have to be pretty special to get big league hitters out with a 87-88 MPH 2-seam/4-seam fastball, and I never saw Surkamp as all that special. Maybe as a LH relief specialist, ok...but as a major league starter???

I don't always agree with 99, but he's 100% correct here. Here's how I'd rate them as of today:
1 - Kyle Crick, R - (clear #1 ranked)
2 - Chris Stratton, R - (mostly on potential)
3 - Martin Agosta, R - (toss-up between him and Escobar, IMO)
4 - Edwin Escobar, L - (could see him in SF by late 2014)
5 - Ty Blach, L - (might fast-track him too)
6 - Clayton Blackburn, R - (getting his groove back lately)
7 - Joan Gregorio, R - (nice potential; production is there too)
8 - Adalberto Mejia, L - (coming on)
9 - Kendry Flores, R - (under the radar)
10 - Chase Johnson, R - (early, but looks great so far)
Btw, I think Kickham could still end up adding value as a reliever. As he builds confidence over time, he could eventually be in the starting mix again...I just wouldn't rule him out completely, but more so as a reliever right now.

Well, that's discouraging but not surprising.
