Yep. Carlos day will come. Kelly did well but its obvious to anyone who watches them pitch that Martinez has more upside. That being said, I'm okay with the move.
I can see the need to keep Martinez's innings down just like Wacha's last year. Someone falters or we make a mid-season trade and we can plug Martinez in all the way to the end of the playoffs.

They can also bring Motte along carefully with Carlos in the pen. Hopefully by August, Motte can assume a strong 7th or 8th inning role on a regular basis feeing up Carlos for a role in the rotation (if it isn't needed sooner).
