According to the Blue Jays site Brett Cecil and the Rzep have reached their inning limit for the year and will sit after their next starts. I have to applaud this, as i believe it's not a good idea for pitchers to make big jumps in their innings from one season to the next. I believe the first time I saw this talked about was in a Tom Verducci article that I can't find, so I'll just link to his archive. I also like his Schilling Theory (which I will write more about at some point), and I think he's one of the only useful Sportswriters out there, though of course I haven't really read him in months.
Apparently David Purcey is going to get another shot. As terrible a year as Wells has had this season, I think Purcey was actually the biggest let down of the season. If he could have been any where near as good as his talent says he should be, the pitching staff would have been a lot more stable and who knows what could have happened. Hopefully he can start to work it out and become the player he should.
