Right now, Masterson may end up being in your rotation for a bit, so converting him to the pen is likely a poor idea. Until you know when DiceK is coming back for sure, you dont convert him. Also, you guys have a guy in Colon occupying a spot in the rotation who has had problems with endurance as the season wears along, so having an emergency starter like Masterson is a boon. Also, Schill is actually throwing so if he can fill in as the emergency starter then moving Masterson to the pen potentially can help. I do think Masterson will be in your pen for the playoffs though. His sinker-slurve (looked like a slurve on TV) is solid.
