2007

Medlock`s a diminutive flamethrower picked as a draft-and-follow out of a Texas juco in 2002. He can consistently deal in the 90s, then exasperate hitters with an equally effective change. The decision to move him into the pen full-time in 2006 opened up the possibility of his becoming part of the bullpen picture after some of the veterans crater this summer, but to stay he`ll have to overcome the general bias against short right-handers.
