Jeff Samardzija has the durability and strikeout capability to be a front-line starter, if not an ace, on other teams. With the San Francisco Giants, he's in a potential starting rotation with four other pitchers who have been All-Stars. The Giants paid big bucks - $90 million over five years - to sign the 31-year-old right-hander who was 11-13 with a 4.96 ERA over 32 starts for the Chicago White Sox last season.
