I don't think that's totally absurd... His ERA was up, K/9 down, WHIP up from 2010. He wasn't that great in 2011. Plus, they have Wandy, Norris, Duke, Hernandez, Lyles, Happ, Harrell, and perhaps Paul Clemens and Kyle Weiland all in the competition for the 5 starter spots, not counting anyone they could pick up after teams begin cuts. This isn't like moving Gallardo to the pen... While Myers may be among their "best" starters, he's not much better than the pile below him any more, and may be helped a lot by the decreased workload. Plus, they had nobody with experience to close (Lyon doesn't count), so this may solve a few problems. Clear a bit of the SP logjam and get an established closer out of the deal.
