By this time of the MLB season, the oddsmakers have figured out most starting pitchers quite well. Still, even in July there are a few starting pitchers who stand out as guys that the oddsmakers continue to undervalue. Let’s take a look at five guys I think are flying under the radar thus far.

5. Jarrod Parker (Athletics) – Jarrod Parker nearly no-hit the Texas rangers earlier this year. Any pitcher who can shut down the Rangers loaded offense is worthy of a second look. He has been a bit inconsistent in his rookie year, but I think Parker has the stuff to be a star for many years to come.

4. Scott Diamond (Twins) – The Minnesota Twins pitching staff is terrible this year, but Scott Diamond has been very good. Diamond is a youngster who pitched extremely well in AAA, and that success has converted into major league success as well. The Twins are 9-4 in his 13 starts this year. Moneyline bettors have made $634 betting on the Twins in his starts so far this season. Diamond is a solid lefty to keep an eye on in the future.

3. A.J. Burnett (Pirates) – The Pirates as a whole have flown under the radar this year, but Burnett tops the list of underrated starters for Pittsburgh. Burnett is remembered for his disappointing years in New York, but he has very good stuff. Remember, he had an ERA below 4 in four straight seasons from 2004 to 2007. The Pirates are 13-3 in his 16 starts this year.

2. Chris Sale (White Sox) – The White Sox have been a pretty big surprise this year, and Chris Sale is a big reason why. Sale was converted from a reliever to a starter, and it has paid off in a big way. Sale is 11-2 with an amazing 2.13 ERA this year. How good has he been this year? Sale has only allowed more than 3 runs in one outing all season!

1. Ryan Vogelsong (Giants) - How does Vogelsong continue to fly under the radar after being so good for such a long period of time? He was excellent in 2011 and a lot of bettors made big money backing him. Most expected serious regression in 2012, but it just hasn’t happened. In fact, Vogelsong’s numbers are even better across the board.
