I still personally think Kennedy should start the seaosn at AAA, but indications are that he's expected to fill one of the starting spots on the big club. This in turn allows the likes of Igawa, Wright, Rasner, etc. to win over a spot as the long man. Eliminate starting pitching jam, solidify the setup role, give another young guy a shot in the pen. All works out IMO..
That rotation doesn't exactly strike fear into the hearts of MLB hitters and RSN.
