And I think the reason not to pitch him in the rotation this year would be you don't want to test the arm that fast. He has no established history of starting, I don't believe.
I'm fine with him being Mo Rivera 1996...100 bullpenn innings 2 at a time when necessary...which seems to be what Wedge is doing with him thus far.
And just for the record...you're about four weeks behind me on the predictin front. :D I gave projectios to my father in an email back in Mid March...had the Mariners going 87-75...had Maurer making the rotation...stuff like that. But had Carter Capps compiling this line:
CAPPS: 1.40 ERA, 90 IP, 125 K, 15 BB, 2 HR, 65 H, 6-1 Record with 6 saves (as the priamry fallback to Wilhelmsom if he was overworked in the previous game)
