Would you have thought he was ready after his first nine starts of the season, through which he had a 6.69 ERA? Or would you have brought him up after his appearance before his last one, in which he went 3.2IP 7H 7R 5ER 2BB 4K, raising his season's ERA to 4.50? Since that shaky start to the season, he has a 3.19 ERA and 86 strikeouts over 84 2/3 innings. But when, exactly, would you have said he was "ready" to be brought up before now? For reference, you can check his game to game progress in his thread in the Prospect Forum Later
