Maeda is giving me so many flashbacks to the failed signed starters of hte past, like Jordan Zimmerman, Mike Pelfrey, Alfredo Simon.... 

We consistently sign expired high priced talent.

It's early, but gotta imagine Kenta is on thin ice these days

We'll see how big Harris's juevos are if Maeda continues his gascan-itis going into June...Scott signed him to a two year, $24 mill contract.  If Maeda continues to fall apart, but Harris doesnt man up and move on, then that should be all we need to know about him.

Tork and Carpenter flipped.

The way this team is going offensively, just get Canha, Greene, and Carpenter at the top in whatever order and hopefully a middle trio emerges.  Get the guys that are hitting as many of the plate appearances as possible.

It's a really good question, but while Manning isn't the best pitcher ever, if Maeda doesn't improve and continues to maintain a 7-8 ERA, he's too good to leave down there.

I don't know if that entails moving Maeda to long relief or what, but something has to give there.

Flaherty and Maeda both seem to have topped out in spring training. Maeda has totally imploded. 
 

Flaherty at least seems to recover and give them length even with the early struggles... his last outing against the Twins was a good example.

With Maeda, it just seems like you're waiting the shoe to drop.... the whole arsenal has to work a certain way, and if he can't land pitches / misses on location, it ends up being a really long day.
