C.J. Wilson will move to the rotation after being a successful backup closer to Frank Francisco. It's typically hard to trust a reliever becoming a starter: Will Wilson's decent dominance hold up over five or six innings instead of one or two? Control improvement would be serviceable as a starter if he sustains it, though. He's worth a pick in AL-only setups as a No. 5 or 6 starter. There isn't much risk at that price.
