I agree on the Belisle front. This is his first year starting and somehow, he's remained healthy. Maybe coming out of the bullpen and getting warm in a hurry had an effect on his back?

Either two things could be a possibility. a.) I've heard a lot of talk the past week or two by the announcer regarding "taking a little off for more control." or b.) Scouts are full of it. More likely is B, IMO.
