I wouldn't point at any innings spent on those tampa bay teams as proving anything though, every pitcher for those teams was miserable because the offense and defense were both miserable. False. Every pitcher was not miserable. Scott Kazmir was able to post some pretty decent/acceptable seasons, as were pitchers like Shields, Hendrickson, Corcoran, Victor Zambrano, Rob Bell. McClung has consistently walked ~6 dudes per 9 IP. Even last year in AAA, he walked over 6 guys per 9. It seems to me, that he has done well enough pitching garbage innings for the Brewers. Given that our rotation is definitely going to have some more 5/6 inning starts, it would seem to me our BP is going to log a lot of innings, and I'd rather have McClung soak up the less meaningful ones.
