Samardzija is some kid who we aren't real sure of yet, even with minor league performance included.

 

There's nothing wrong with using him in a non-critical situation to get him some innings.

Except Lou has said he's going to be a late inning power arm, but he isn't going to throw on back to back days. And this made 3 of 5 days pitching for the kid since his call-up, and there are guys rotting in the bullpen, for whom, a blowout is the perfect opportunity to get them in the game.

Piniella says lots of things, none of which should be believed, especially about player usage.
