I am excited to see what this guy can do. Almost feels like a birthday present just sitting on our table, waiting to be opened. I know he was horrendous in the two innings he threw for us, but he has a great track record and is obviously much better than he showed.

He has to come inside against the lefties. If he can get them to stop plate diving he can be a help down the stretch.
