GW probably felt more comfortable playing with the vet. One thing about GW that I've noticed is that no matter how much something isn't working, he never, ever acts out of desperation. I guess he would have viewed a move from Holdman to Rocky as being a move of desperation. I'd say this is a good quality in general since usually desprate moves end up being unsuccessful. I think he put Rocky in when he thought he was ready, not when he passed Holdman in terms of preparedness.

If we aquire a MLB through free agency, Marshall and Rocky should be able to compete for the starting job on the weak side.
