R-Zep has been presented as a definite to make the rotation, but on what grounds? Yeah, he was solid last year, but so was Robert Ray when I saw him start against the Sox last year, and he's already been cut. <br /><br />Whether or not R-Zep gets it, you're absolutely right that Eveland has no business taking a valuable bullpen spot away from Janssen, Accardo, Roenicke... list goes on and on. Based on R-Zep's spring, they should send him down so that they don't rush his development to kill his confidence.<br /><br />I would also argue that Eveland has way more business being in the starting five than Tallet. While I don't mind Tallet, I honestly don't think he has the endurance to be a starter. Even in his strong starts, he generally fizzles out by the 6th or 7th. He should be the long reliever. Eveland was decent last year, he's younger, and he's an established starter.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1399591638113522748.post-31198664210068116462010-03-28T20:03:36.766-04:002010-03-28T20:03:36.766-04:00I still can't believe the A's gave up on E...I still can't believe the A's gave up on Eveland so quickly.

Eveland looks good and deserves a shot...but certainly not in the bullpen.Jay McMahonnoreply@blogger.com
