Here is my thoughts on it... 1) Jess seems like a good enough guy. I never have said I didn't think he was a good person as I have only seen positive things from him community wise. 2) Number 1 has no basis for who I want to pitch or who gives the best chance for the Brewers to win. I do not think Jeff starting gives us the best chance hence I, as well as others with the same sentiment, are a little unsettled by this decision. 3) A lot of people are wondering if money played a part in the decision and if it did, why? The money is spent and gone, now only the players who give us the best chance should be in. 4) To go along with number 3, looking at last years numbers and the downward trend of Jeff's numbers (as well as many pitchers at that age) it seems like Jeff, more than likely, will not have a very good year. Also, we have younger options that COULD do better this year and build for the future. 5) If he does start, even if I do not like it, I will root for him and the Brewers. If he fails, I will want someone else to get a chance and the quicker the better.
