    I am just delighted to see the talk coming out of Price, nicely posted by OBM, about Chapman's future in the rotation. That's where it belongs, I've thought all along.

    Like you, I eventually want to see him starting, but let's not act like that one inning proves anything.
    Does 3 innings prove something?

    Has he had 3 innings throwing "low" velocity? (i.e. 93-95, which is where he was sitting last night, per the gun). When I've watched him he's been sitting much closer to 100.

    And to answer your question, no I don't think 3 innings proves anything at all, really.

    Neftali Feliz has said that he does not want to be a starter ever again. Interesting.

    "The team has told me that next year I would still have the chance to start, but I don't want to do it anymore,'' Feliz said. "This year my arm didn't feel good after they moved me from the rotation back to closing, so I don't want to go through that again and risk the same thing happening.''

    I have always considered his and Chapman's situations similar so this is something to think about.
