Phil Hughes? Ian Kennedy?
"Until I got to the big leagues is whenever I faced the problems that arose, and I feel like I'm more equipped with everything that I have right now -- as far the pitches, and the mental aspect and I'm physically healthy -- to be up there and helping that team. And if not that team, I want to be in the big leagues and I do want to go somewhere where I'll be able to play and pitch every fifth day."
Wow, he's hungry to be in the big leagues again. What a stupid kid, clearly not major-league material....
They made their rotation 6 men deep because you can't have enough pitching, injuries happen and they were in a position to acquire two low-risk, high-reward guys either as contributors or trade chips
Trust me, if the FO really had zero confidence in Buchholz, he would have been out of here after ST and they would've gotten serious value in return.
