Certainly set-up. He's a monster. And because I'm not a huge fan of his motion for 100+ pitches I wonder whether they'll make that adjustment sooner or later. I have them doing it later, especially since we have a lot of options that are closer to the bigs. Pryor is the same type of guy and he's already had his season-long adjustment.
But if we wanted to take a guy or two from the low minors, stuff them in the pen and see if they can't be in the bigs ASAP, then I'd pick Capps and Carson Smith to do that.
I'd love to give Maurer another chance to start before bullpenning him, because his motion isn't as bullpen-leaning as those of Capps and Smith.
Like I said, our 2013 pen does not concern me at all. I just wonder if all the spit and baling wire can hold the 2012 pen together until all these arms get up here.
