analysis. \u00a0Which in some cases is unfair to the player (to the good or to the bad). \u00a0It is what it is.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Auburn starters<\/strong><\/em>.\u00a0 The rotation started the season with Turnbull, Johansen, Selsor, Orlan and DWilliams. \u00a0 Those 5 opening day rotation members were acquired by the team as follows: 2011 Draft, 2013 draft, 2012 draft, 2012 draft and 2011 draft. \u00a0I mention this because a common thought process is that Short-A spots are &#8220;saved&#8221; for college draftess in the current year, but this year only one current-year draftee started in the Short-A rotation (and it was our #1 pick). \u00a0The Auburn rotation ended with Barrientos, Giolito, Selsor (sort of), Orlan, Simms and Ullmann. \u00a0As with the rest of the system, Auburn graduated a ton of hurlers throughout the season. \u00a0Lets take a look at the starters:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Kylin Turnbull<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0faced two demotions to end up as Auburn&#8217;s opening day starter, not a great start to his 2nd pro season. \u00a0He posted a 1.96 ERA in his first four Short-A starts and returned to Hagerstown. \u00a0See Low-A write-up for more. \u00a0\u00a0<em><strong>Outlook for next season<\/strong><\/em>: High-A&#8217;s rotation competition but likely slipping to bullpen.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Jake Johansen<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0was the Nats first 2013 pick, a big tall righty from a small Texas school with a 99 mph fastball. \u00a0He did not disappoint in pro ball, posting a 1.92 ERA with 51\/23 K\/BB in 51 2\/3 innings between Auburn and Hagerstown. \u00a0After signing quickly for slot (very quickly, like in 24 hours or so), Johansen joined short-A Auburn and was essentially unhittable through 10 starts. \u00a0He was promoted up to low-A, got hit around in two starts and finishes the season with a 1.92 ERA, and a sub 1.00 WHIP. \u00a0Johansen is walking too many batters, but still flashes a dominant fastball. \u00a0Scouts continue to believe he\u2019ll end up in the bullpen (a lazy narrative assigned by default to any player over 6&#8217;5&#8243; with a significant fastball .. with the constant &#8220;big guys cannot repeat their mechanics&#8221; excuse. \u00a0Nobody talks about how LeBron James can&#8217;t &#8220;repeat his mechanics&#8221; as he dominates the NBA and he&#8217;s 6&#8217;8&#8243; playing the point &#8230; just a slight tangent on my irritation with broad-stroke scouting narratives), but until that situation presents itself Johansen will stay as a starter. \u00a0<em><strong>Outlook for next season<\/strong><\/em>: Low-A&#8217;s rotation, looking for a push to Potomac mid-season.<\/li>\n<li><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Casey Selsor<\/span>\u00a0<\/strong>was 0-6, 4.29 ERA with 30\/14 in 42 1\/3 innings, 56 \u00a0hits for Auburn. \u00a0He started the season in Auburn\u2019s rotation, got demoted to the bullpen after 6 starts, but eventually made his way back into the rotation in some sense by the time the season was over. \u00a0He gave up a ton of baserunners, but his BABIP was high. \u00a0Despite a 4.29 ERA his FIP for the year was just 3.15. \u00a0So he pitched better than his stats look. \u00a0\u00a0<em><strong>Outlook for next season<\/strong><\/em>: Low-A bullpen as a swingman.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Robert Orlan<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0was 1-5, 3.65 ERA with 47\/22 K\/BB in 56 2\/3 innings, 54 hits for Auburn. \u00a0Orlan was the leading innings-eater for Auburn in 2013 after missing the whole 2012 season following TJ surgery. \u00a0 Orlan kept the ball down, pitched better than his ERA shows (3.38 fip) and shows no reason not to continue up the chain and compete for rotation jobs in full season ball next year. \u00a0\u00a0<em><strong>Outlook for next season<\/strong><\/em>: Low-A rotation.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Deion Williams<\/strong><\/span> has now fully transitioned to the mound after being a hitter in 2011. \u00a0 But the jury is out as to whether he can stick; in 8 Auburn starts he got shelled, going 0-6 with a 9+ ERA and was dumped back to the rookie league. \u00a0He&#8217;s young (just turned 21) so he has a bit of time to sort things out. \u00a0<em><strong>Outlook for next season<\/strong><\/em>: XST and another shot at Short-A in the bullpen.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Joel Barrientos<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0tried to make the jump from rookie ball to short-season and got hammered: in 11 appearances (8 starts) he was 1-5 with a 7.08 ERA, getting demoted to the bullpen later in the season. \u00a0The DSL grad just turned 19, so patience is expected with his progression. \u00a0He did well enough in the GCL in 2012; he needs to make the leap to the next level.\u00a0<em><strong>Outlook for next season<\/strong><\/em>: XST and another shot at Short-A rotation.<\/li>\n<li><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Austin Voth\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>was clearly started too low for his draft pedigree (Pac-12 College Junior) and it showed, as he went 3-0, 1.75 ERA with 55\/6 K\/BB in46 1\/3 innings between three levels. \u00a0He pushed his way through two promotions on the season, ending up in the Hagerstown rotation. \u00a0Two key stats on Voth to keep in mind: he had more than a 9\/1 K\/BB ratio on the season and he gave up zero home-runs in his 55 innings on the year. \u00a0And these stats were done with pretty normal looking BABIPs; his FIP values were lower than his ERAs in short- and low-A. \u00a0I like this guy and I think he could be a find. \u00a0He finished 2nd in the Pac-12 to <strong>Mark Appel<\/strong> in strikeouts last year after all.\u00a0\u00a0<em><strong>Outlook for next season<\/strong><\/em>: Low-A rotation and also looking for a mid-season bump to Potomac.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Ryan Ullmann\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>began the season in the rookie league, being a senior coming from a Division III school, but by season&#8217;s end he was in the Auburn rotation. \u00a0He got 6 starts in Auburn with some up and down results (3 decent, one ok, two bad) that resulted in a 5.30 ERA all told. \u00a0 You can\u2019t teach size (he\u2019s 6\u20196\u2033, 230). \u00a0Ullmann closed in college and may return to the pen, despite his K\/9 not being strong. \u00a0<em><strong>Outlook for next season<\/strong><\/em>: Low-A bullpen, maybe Short-A again.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Nick Pivetta <\/strong><\/span>sported a<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>1-1, 3.41 ERA with 18\/12 K\/BB in 29 innings between GCL and Short-A. \u00a0Pivetta started 5 games for Auburn but averaged less than 4 innings a start. \u00a0 For such a big guy (6\u20195\u2033 220) with such a reported fastball (upper 90s in short spurts) I would have hoped for more K\u2019s (18 in 29 innings). \u00a0 <em><strong>Outlook for next season<\/strong><\/em>: Low-A bullpen,\u00a0possibly as a closer so he can maintain higher velocity in shorter outings.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Lucas Giolito<\/strong><\/span>, as any Nats fan knows, returned from TJ surgery and pitched in both the GCL and for Auburn. \u00a0In three Short-A starts he gave up just 9 hits and one run. \u00a0See GCL&#8217;s post for more. \u00a0<em><strong>Outlook for next season<\/strong><\/em>: Low-A rotation.<\/li>\n<li>Other&#8217;s who got 1-2 starts here or there:\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Blake Treinen<\/strong><\/span> got two rehab starts. \u00a0See the AA-post for more.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>John Simms<\/strong><\/span> got two spot starts at the end of the season;

he was a clear &#8220;draft punt&#8221; pick, a college senior taken between the 6th and 10th rounds and given a miniscule signing bonus so as to play by the new CBA drafting bonus cap rules. \u00a0<em><strong>Outlook for next season<\/strong><\/em>: Low-A bullpen, perhaps even higher if Potomac needs lefties.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Jake Joyce<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0went 1-3, 5.22 ERA with 25\/12 K\/BB in 29 relief innings in Auburn, 37 hits. \u00a0Joyce was unlucky (.381 babip) and his FIP reflects that (3.03 versus 5.22 era), but he still gave up a ton of base-runners (1.67 whip) and a ton of air-outs (0.62 GO\/AO on the year). \u00a0 Like Napoli, \u00a0Joyce was a senior sign for very little money, but he didn&#8217;t perform nearly as well. \u00a0He could seem rather expendible if he doesn\u2019t start strong in 2014. \u00a0\u00a0<em><strong>Outlook for next season<\/strong><\/em>: Low-A bullpen competition, release candidate.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>John Simms<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0worked mostly as a long-man for Auburn, getting two starts at the end of the year. \u00a0All told, he went\u00a00-4, 5.70 ERA with 34\/7 K\/BB. \u00a0His walks were low but hits were high. \u00a0His ERA looks ugly but look beyond the top layer and you discover that Simms actually didn\u2019t pitch that badly this year. \u00a0A ridiculously high BABIP of .438 contributed to his inflated short-A ERA; his FIP was just 2.38. \u00a0Combine that with his 5\/1 K\/BB ratio and he has the makings of at least a good reliever in the system. \u00a0\u00a0<em><strong>Outlook for next season<\/strong><\/em>: Low-A bullpen.<\/li>\n<li><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Andrew Cooper<\/span>\u00a0<\/strong>was 2-1, 3.86 ERA with 16\/7 K\/BB in 25 2\/3 relief innings mostly in Auburn, 29 hits. \u00a0His Auburn-only numbers were worse. \u00a0Drafted as a project, and so far he\u2019s pitched like a project. \u00a0His numbers aren\u2019t bad or great in any direction. \u00a0I\u2019d suspect the team knew he needed some complex time so I could see him staying in Viera until next season\u2019s short-A starts up and repeating the level. \u00a0<em><strong>Outlook for next season<\/strong><\/em>: XST and then Short-A bullpen again.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Cory Bafidis<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0went 2-0, 2.73 ERA\u00a0with 22\/13 K\/BB in 26 1\/3 relief innings mostly in Auburn, 18 hits. \u00a0He got pushed to low-A too early, settled into short-A where he probably belonged to begin with, and pitched relatively well for 20 innings. \u00a0 <em><strong>Outlook for next season<\/strong><\/em>: Low-A bullpen loogy competition, perhaps falling back to Short-A again.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Will Hudgins<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0started the year in Hagerstown&#8217;s bullpen, was demoted to Auburn, and\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.nationalsarmrace.com\/?tag=will-hudgins\">abruptly retired in July<\/a>. \u00a0 <em><strong>Outlook for next season:<\/strong><\/em><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>out of baseball.<\/li>\n<li>Other Relievers who got 10 or fewer innings:\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Justin Thomas<\/strong><\/span> threw 3 1\/3 innings in Auburn during his tour of the Nats farm system in 2013. \u00a0See low-A post for more. \u00a0<em><strong>Outlook for next season:<\/strong><\/em><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>High-A bullpen competition.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Mike Sylvestri<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0started the season in Auburn, got shelled (12 runs in 8 2\/3 innings) but then dominated the GCL. \u00a0 He\u2019s undersized (5\u201910\u2033, 180) and could have trouble getting out of rookie ball (as evidenced by his short-A experience). \u00a0<em><strong>Outlook for next season<\/strong><\/em>: XST and then Short-A bullpen again, release candidate.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Ben Grisz<\/strong><\/span> threw 8 scoreless innings in his return to the organization after missing the 2nd half of 2011 with some unknown &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/nationalsprospects.com\/2011\/09\/at-the-wire\/\">off-field issue<\/a>&#8221;
