I believe Kevin to be a very useful starter, in that, his usefulness comes from his ability to manage to keep teams from scoring a lot of runs over roughly 6 innings. He however, always gives up runs and hits, which makes him, nearly useless as a reliever, who are almost always called upon to do the exact opposite of that.

I can only imagine hurdle using him in mop up duty, which seems ridiculous, but it seems equally ridiculous to say, put him in the 7th, with a one run lead against say, the 4 5 6 hitters for the reds.

In essence, i think its really stupid, and a complete waste of his talent to move him into the pen, i also don’t know what else i would do with him, other than trade him, which i also think would be stupid because, I’m sure we are going to need a starter at some point between now and the end of the season.
