Numbers Breakdown: Bullpen Battles

Assuming that Aramis Ramirez, Derrek Lee, Alfonso Soriano, Geovany Soto, Reed Johnson, Kosuke Fukudome, Mike Fontenot, Aaron Miles, Milton Bradley, Ryan Theriot, Carlos Zambrano, Ted Lilly, Ryan Dempster, Rich Harden, Carlos Marmol, Kevin Gregg, Aaron Heilman, Sean Marshall and Neal Cotts are all locks to make the team, there are only 6 spots up for grabs on the roster. Most likely 2-3 of those spots will go to pitchers. Here are all the pitchers competing for the spots and their stats in Spring Training.

*= my picks to make the team

Jeff Samardzija: 0-1, 9.90 ERA, 4 Games (3 starts), 10 innings, 6 K, 4 BB
*Chad Gaudin: 2-1, 10.38 ERA, 4 games (3 starts), 8.2 IP, 5 BB, 5 K
Jason Wadell: 1-0, 1.13 ERA, 8 games, 8 IP, 9 K, 3 BB
*David Patton: 0-1, 1.35 ERA, 6.2 IP, 6 Games, 7 K, 0 BB
Kevin Hart: 7.11 ERA, 6 games, 6.1 IP, 10 K, 2 BB
Chad Fox: 0-1, 3.00 ERA, 6 games, 6 IP, 5 K, 2 BB
Mike Stanton: 5.06 ERA, 6 games, 5.1 IP, 3 K, 2 BB
*Jose Ascaino: 5.79 ERA, 5 games, 4.2 IP, 7 K, 1 BB
Luis Vizcaino: 4.15 ERA, 5 games, 4.1 IP, 2 K, 3 BB
Randy Wells: 5 games, 0.00 ERA, 4.1 IP, 4 K
