    Blue Jays Morrow a Top SP in 2012?

    A lot of Morrow's stats are trending in the right direction, especially
    walks. And according to a lot of ERA indicators, he's been highly unluckly since
    becoming a Blue Jay.

    So what do you guys think? Can he become a top flight starter in 2012?

    He'll never live up to being picked ahead of Kershaw/Lincecum. These days, either these young pitchers have it out of the gate or they never figure it out.

    I think he's good, I don't think he'll be top flight ever though. Hess guy that will start being tossed around at trade deadlines. Good enough that teams take interest, not good enough that teams will want him long term.

    Injuries slowed him last year, and the year before that Cito and the gang shut him down before the end of the season.

    And mofo is right, he is never going to match the level of those taken after him. Slow development coming out of the gates never helped the cause. Remember Seattle had him in the bullpen for a good portion of those important early pro years.

    I do think this is the year he puts it all together and takes that leap into All Star status.
