When will we cut our losses on Corwin Malone?

When will we cut our losses on Corwin Malone?

Probably about six weeks before he finds success in another team's bullpen.

Seriously, he had one good season in the minors. He seems like a good guy. I would love to see him do well. Maybe he throws well enough that management feels he could turn it around. Or maybe they need a career minor leaguer to throw innings to give them more flexibility with pitchers on the fast track.

If he is a future major leaguer, it won't be as a starter.
