I'd go with Greinke.

Still taking Greinke. Then I guess I'd go Plesac narrowly over E-Rod.. but I think that's a toss-up.

These are my thoughts as well.

I'll be the complete contrarian and vote for E-Rod. Greinke isn't striking anyone out anymore, he's fine, but nothing spectacular. E-Rod has had a great start to the season, 31 Ks and just 3! walks in 28 innings. 3.5 FIP. BABIP is reasonable.

The 20% HR rate will regress.

I think all 3 of these guys are close but I'm taking the non-standard approach and picking E-Rod.
