Bobble covered the things I've seen.
Additionally, I just focus on starters that have at least 3 pitches. I don't look for 3 non-change up pitches. Guys with elite fastball and slider/curve/ect plus a decent change can be very good pitchers with a 3 pitch mix, but if that change is underdeveloped it's not going to ever be a legit 3rd pitch and you'll end up with a bullpen arm.
