Fantasy Analysis
Purcey used to be a starter but has been pitching solely out of the bullpen that past two seasons. While he posted a 3.71 ERA with Toronto in 2010, he took a big step back last season and will be a long shot to make the roster with the Phillies. Even if he does, plan on ignoring Purcey in all formats on Draft Day. (Updated 12/09/2011).
