Contract Crowdsourcing 2011-12: Starting Pitcher

We continue our contract crowdsourcing today with starting pitchers. Bradley “The Body” Woodrum provided a summary of the options available as part of this offseason’s class of free-agent starting pitchers.

Like last time, I’ve added some alternate questions for each of the players below — inviting speculation, for example, on whether CC Sabathia will choose to opt out of his contract or if the reader has ever been tempted to describe Edwin Jackson as “mercurial.”

While we’ll reserve all contract information until the end of the present series (to avoid bias), data from Friday’s polling suggests that this year’s free-agent class of center fielders is sad enough to make the whole world cry.

Forms after the jump.

4. Custom player page dashboards! Choose the player cards you want, in the order you want them.

8. Get FanGraphs Walk-Off, a customized year end review! Find out exactly how you used FanGraphs this year, and how that compares to other Members. Don't be a victim of FOMO.
