Player Value Rankings - SI.com
The rankings of the pitchers are found here:
http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/david_sabino/03/20/pvr.pitchers/index.html
of note: Carpenter is ranked as the 3rd best pitcher in MLB. No surprise. Adam Wainwright is ranked #20 14th best starter. Anyone else really surprised by that?
others of note:
Reyes - 102
Wells - 182
Looper - 195
Thompson - 204
Mulder - 298
Josh Fogg - 309
Jason Marquis - 263
Mark Prior - 245
If pressed, I would probably be more comfortable with Looper as a starter over Marquis and Prior.
Thoughts?

Way too bullish on AW

I'm a huge Wainwright fan...
That said, he puts up better numbers than at least two of those guys this summer.

Overrating AW
20 is too high, and I can't see rating him over Bonderman and Schilling; or Papelbon, for that matter.
OTOH, at least he has pitched in the majors, which Matsuzaka hasn't, so I would rate him over Matsuzaka.
Others conspicuously overrated: Harang (lucky, but not that good), Todd Jones (WAAAAAY lucky, and not that good), and Izzy (because of the injury cloud)
He got Marquis right, though

We'll see on Wainright
On the other hand, Reyes, Wells and Izzy could significantly outperform those preseason ranks.
