If injuries are the biggest issue with pitchers, then my opinion is to stock your farm system with as many as you can get, 3 or 4 times what you think you will need. If a bunch get injured, you’ll still have some. If you end with more than you need, you can flip them for position players in an instant.
On the other hand, we still have Odorizzi on track, Lamb should be coming back to the minors soon and a possibility for 2013, and Duffy will be back in 2014. But is that enough?

Duffy...man that was just a killer right there. He was the first influx of the farm system starters and was starting to pitch really well. He needed to learn to control his pitch count better but he was starting to look really good
