2. Clayton Kershaw, Los Angeles Dodgers - He is the left-handed Justin Verlander. A tremendous talent, who has only scratched the surface of his potential. Like Hermandez, younger than Verlander.
3. David Price, Tampa Bay Rays - Has pitched extremely well despite the struggles lately of his team overall.
