The ADP of the top 13 pitchers avg's 39. All 13 taken had an ADP between 19 and 62. Throw out the top performer and worst performer and the numbers dont' move much.

Below is the average production so far of the top 13. Next I'll look at SP's with ADP over a 100 to 200 and see what the numbers say.
the avg. per SP is W-5, L-4, GS-13, QS-8, CG-1, K's-81, ERA-3.52, WHIP-1.21

In the year of the pticher and looking at those drafted after these 13, the value truly was well after these guys. Besides Hammels none of them have a realistic shot at 20 wins. Only 2 of them have an ERA under 2.75 and only 3 under 3.00. 5 of them have 4 wins or less.

13 seems like a completely arbitrary place to stop, especially since the next 5 include Strasburg, Bumgarner, Cain, and CJ Wilson.

I stopped a 15 team league - 4 rounds. any of the 4 you mentioned presently would've been much better picks than most of the first 13.
