I have a feeling that Willie made the wrong decision putting him in a big situation on opening day and then having him fall flat on his face. He was clearly not ready for it and I would not be surprised if he is back in the minors soon. Lets just hope it didn't blow his mind.

Personally I think last year with the Royals he has proved the ability of forgetting a bad performance. Im glad it happened to him early, there really shouldnt be to much pressure at all.

He wont pull a Lidge, but is the Minors the best spot for him right now? I think we will have patience with him and Smith.

1 bad outing?

He was a closer last year. Granted he's young, he needs to work on his mechanics and he had a ridiculous 7 or 8 era in pre-season. But I think he'll say here till Mota returns.

Wow already? You are MAD quick on the leash Doc.

He struck Utley out. He has a splitter that can cause alot of ground balls. I think he'll be fine.
