I wonder why wilkerson was the odd man out of the pawsox rotation.

Kelly's outing not quite as meh as it looks; they went 4/7 on GB against him, including an infield hit.
4.2 6 3 3 1 5, remove the bad BABIP luck and it's 5.1 IP, 4 H, and 1 or 2 runs.

Kelly OConnor @sittingstillsox 10h10 hours ago Kelly OConnor Retweeted Bill Koch Speculation from @joshmaurerradio and @willflemming that something may have been bothering him even before this play Bill Koch @billkoch25 Joe Kelly limping off the field with two outs in the 5th. Went to back up the plate on a sacrifice fly to right. Favoring left leg. #PawSox

He also turns 28 tomorrow. There's just no way I'm going to be impressed or encouraged by "hey, that 28-year-old with 500 MLB innings was only some BABIP luck away from being good enough to beat the Toledo Mud Hens."

I have (almost) given up on him. I know we really need the starting depth, but he really has shown he is never going to be THE answer. He cannot be consistent from inning to inning. Non-starters fail in being able to get thru a line-up multiple times. He is a bullpen pitcher....who MAY be able to help us in short doses.

Even Kelly must realize that he is not put together to be a ML starter. He should just focus on being a long man/middle inning reliever. I know they can't do that in the minors as they want him stretched out. Maybe let him go 3 innings & see if he can air it out for 1 time through the order of something.

I thought he was a Genesis guy. You're right Guidas, Mike Rutherford, of Mike + The Mechanics, was one of the founding members of Genesis. Dire Straits is Mark Knopfler Doh! I have no idea how I got that wrong. That's what I get for not googling it.

That's what I get for not googling it. No worries. No doubt you meant to say that Kelly was in Dire Straits anyway (rimshot).
