You're exactly right -- they completely changed their gameplan that was working for 58 minutes and switched it for the last two. It will be interesting to see how he does as a starter in the majors.

If I were a UCLA fan, I'd have a lot more contempt for the coaching staff that called off a blitz package that harassed Brady Quinn all game to go to a prevent (a victory) defense that allowed Smardzjia time to get open and Quinn time to find him. Word in Chicago is that the Cubs love Jeff's fast ball, but for moment should only be up for a cup of coffee until Woody returns from the DL, and then back to pitch in AAA as a starter and work on pitches to use with that fastball.
