EDGE Analysis

The delegation means he could be available for rounds two or three if USA is available to advance. The young right-hander replaces Sunny Gray, who wasn't cleared for contract insurance. Odorizzi has emerged as a potential ace for Tampa Bay, posting a 3.69 ERA and 8.0 K/9 in 33 starts last season - his fifth in the league.
