San Francisco Giants manager Bruce Bochy has announced that Tim Lincecum will move to the bullpen. He will be replaced in the starting rotation by Yusmeiro Petit. Is this a bold move by BB? Has Lincecum been that bad this season to deserve a move to the BP? How do you think Petit will fare in the starting rotation? Leave a comment below.

He threw two no no's against the same team! That's pretty good!

I'm pretty surprised. I don't think it'll last long. Lincecum is an elite player and will return to form and SF's rotation

Lincecum had so many shaky starts with the Giants this year it started an earthquake in California! I think it was a very good idea to put in him back in the bullpen! No more bad starts will mean a lot less earthquakes in California

Lincecum seemed to do well in the BP a few years ago when the Giants went to the playoffs. Maybe Bochy is hoping for something alone those lines. Also, Petit did very well in relief of Vogelsong in the continued game against the Cubs that had previously been suspended.

Matheny did the same with Masterson Matheny needs to ask for a refund from the Indians, instead of sending him to the pen.
