Even if Mazzarone becomes an ace, we dont know if it will be similar,
worse or better than last year
Mazzarone - ace
Kleiman - improved from last year? but still 2nd
Is there a third like last year?
- Grizzard has never seemed to enjoy full trust
- Carrico
- Fisher
- Layton
Unknowns even if good things have been said about them (which generally is the case; we never hear, they are not having a good off-season) :)
Odds are, Pete goes by committee but it will be interesting to see how he handles the SEC opponents.

Is pitching our weak spot this year? Or are the arms going to step up.**

I think it would be fair to say the pitching is more of a question mark
