Not saying that Kilgore didn't struggle, but the double and triple coverage talk, is just plain not true.
The overreaction to Kilgore's struggles are ridiculous. He's 26 years old, and just played his first meaningful set of games. Trevor Harris was 29 when he played his first meaningful set of games. I'm willing to bet if he had his first starts 3 years earlier, he likely would have struggled as well, and the same people on here would be shipping him out on the first plane.
I'm the first to admit that I liked Collaros a lot when he was here, and sure as hell wished we could have kept him. I still believe the bush league way that Braley was running the team had more to do with him leaving than the fact that he didn't think he'd get a chance to start.
