10 team AL only league. 23 man rosters, $260 salary cap. Five keepers.

Adam Miller, Cle $4
Fausto Carmona, Cle $1
Francisco Liriano, Min $3
Phillip Hughes, NYY $1
Dustin McGowan, Tor $1
Shaun Marcum, Tor $1
Brandon McCarthy, Tex $1

Santiago Casilla, Oak $1
Raffie Perez, Cle $1

I like Marcum. He's pitching well for the Jays over the last 6 starts or so. Whether or not he's still pitching well the second time around the league is another matter, but I picked him up in my league and he's been solid.

He was averaging about 1k per inning til his last start and his era over the last month is under 2.00 and it ain't bad for the year either.
