If they were to draft Purke, they'd have three mid-90s lefties.  Of the three, Paxton most fits the Carlton template -- Robles is short and stocky; Purke wiry and whippy (but Purke fits right into the "flaky" aspect).  Paxton seems like the safest bet if can shake off the rust.
If Paxton and Wilhelmsen are both firing along smoothy by June, it would make it a lot easier to take a hitter at #2, I will grant that. 
And as an aside, since you mentioned him -- did anyone know that Jamie Moyer had TJ surgery so he could make a comeback at 49?  That's just bizarre.
