Kendrick has a decent slider, basically his only good pitch. When he hits his spots and throws low, he's an alright pitcher.
His problem is consistancy. The word is not in his vocabulary. I will admit I was really pissed last night when he gave up 3 home runs in one inning.

Trade may be brewing...
No way that Carpenter is being called up to be a starter long term
Kendricks problem is that he simply doesnt have much stuff. He made it this far with one pitch which is pretty amazing really. If the sinker aint sinking he has nothing else that can get major leagers out and you see outings like last nights where he was throwing 84mph pitches right down the middle.
