He just didn't have it. I just don't think that it's a good idea to pat a guy on the back for getting to the sixth inning when he was ineffective for three innings. ... He's capable of so much better than that.

He walks in (to San Diego) and things are already in motion. He's very intelligent, very honest, very tough-minded. I'm very confident he'll be a huge plus for that organization.
