May 5: 5 IP, 5 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 3 BB, 4 K
April 30: 5 IP, 7 H, 8 R, 6 ER, 1 BB, 3 K
Compare that to the last 10 2/3 innings pitched by the bullpen in long relief.
May 5 (Ross): 2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 0 K
May 2 (Kilby): 3 2/3 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 3 K
April 30: (Gaudin): 3 IP, 4 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 2 BB, 2 K
Insanely, Brad Kilby has since been demoted, and Cahill is being given a third start. I know we're going to hear about the A's bright young future, the A's bright young future, but it seems like the only thing the A's are working on is figuring out is how to up Cahill's trade value. If you were going on performance alone, you would have to say that either Ross, Kilby, or Jerry Blevins should get the start over Cahill, and that Cahill should be demoted to long relief--or the minors.
