I think it's a safer to bet against with the track record. Zach Greinke is the only starting pitcher in the past 15 years to pan out from our minors... and even that was tumultuous.
Before Greinke, the last Royals pitcher to come from our minor league system and be successful at the big leagues?
Jose Rosado. And his stay was short.
