It's obvious he is couple of levels above Kelly. His stuff overall may be the best on the whole staff.That being said...........
If I was Mo, I'd put him in the 8th inning role till the All-Star break. Motte should be up to speed by then to take over. Or someone else steps up. Send him down to AAA and get stretched out. Get 4-5 starts in the late season push. Got a fresh arm for the playoffs.
We don't know if Wacha will tire at the end like Miller did last year. Lynn may melt down. A fresh Martinez as a starter will kick ass in the playoffs.

Not going to work. No speed. Propensity to hit into double plays.
