Apparently what he's willing to settle for now. I would, and I'd send Affeldt to the pen and let Fogg pitch out of the 5 spot if Volquez isn't ready (although I think he will be.)
If we're out of contention by the deadline (or if the kids are ready to join the roation,) flip him to a contender again for another Maloney. Hell, we could do this every year
