Actually I was expecting more from Tallet, I think he's more of a victim of circumstance than a poor pitcher.
Last year in May/June (after he was converted to starter from reliever due to injury) he had a 3.875 ERA - which is fine by any measure, but he was also very feast-or-famine. 8 runs in five innings or 0 runs in seven; that might seem like a negative but with such an anemic offense I remember prefering his inconsistency (opposed to 4 runs every game, which the offense never would have overcame).
