With C.C. Sabathia off the table and A.J. Burnett and Derek Lowe presumably next to go, the focus of the starting pitching market will soon shift to the second tier. These are the guys who lack the star power of the front liners, but are counted on to contribute innings and an above average performance in the middle of the rotation for their new team. Some recent second tier pitchers you may remember include Gil Meche and Ted Lilly in 2006 and Kyle Lohse last winter.
