Starting pitchers

Radhames Liz, San Diego Padres (claimed off waivers)

A couple of years ago, Liz was one of the Baltimore Orioles' top pitching prospects. That wasn't saying much then. The right-hander's velocity (and dominance, along with it) has been on the downswing for the past two seasons. If he regains any of it or adjusts to his new profile, he could be come yet another San Diego reclamation project who is ... barely usable in NL circuits.

Relief pitchers

Aaron Heilman, Arizona Diamondbacks (traded from Chicago Cubs)

One change of scenery wasn't enough to make Heilman relevant to fantasy baseball players. The gopher ball remained a problem for him at Wrigley Field, as it was for the righty at Shea Stadium. Do you think that will change for the better at Chase Field?
