i think car squared (carlos carrasco) will be the first SP called up from columbus as they are going to bring him along slowly this year after the TJ surgery but he was really coming on and showing the signs of being a #2 / #3 caliber starter before he got hurt. dice K is a nonentity and will be quietly released near the end of spring training. kazmir is a very intriguing possibility and i think the tribe will ride that horse until it bucks.

the 2014 OD rotation of masterson, carrasco, bauer, mcallister and ??? will be much better than the 2013 OD rotation of masterson, jimenez, meyers, mcallister and kazmir. it’s clearly going the right way though…

My guess is, as long as his arm doesn’t fall off, he ends up with the spot. All the live interviews I’ve seen of Francona, he seems fairly enamored with Kazmir so far.
