Who would you rather have in your organization. Gunnar or Adley?

It's not a slam dunk, but I'd go with Gunnar. That said, I can understand someone choosing Adley. Having both is a fantastic foundation to build on.

fWAR gives Kikuchi and Burnes both 4.7 for the Past 1 Calendar Year.

He has been pretty strong since it seems like figuring some stuff out June-ish last year.

I smell collusion on when his high school teammate Ohtani got what was reported as I think Statcast's fastest batted ball ever when they faced each other earlier this year.

Pearson basically strikes out as many guys as Akin with a higher WHIP. 

Yeah, he's got good velo on his FB, but it gets hit strangely hard.  Maybe to do with failure to locate, pitch mix or something like that.  Baseball savant likes his breaking stuff.  My sense is that this type of guy has a way higher ceiling than the Akins, Tates and Webbs of the world.  They are fine RPs, but we need some higher upside potential guys in the system or at the back end of the pen.  Someone who, if they take the next step (or get hot through the playoffs), can K someone when there's a runner on third with less than 2 outs, or strand the ghost runner on 2nd in extras.
