He may be.. Ozzie has a very short leash with his RP's..I put McCarthy in my starting lineup instead of David Weathers this week.. Mistake? Here is an interesting stat I just saw...
Chicago intentionally walked Jeremy Reed in front of Betancourt even though Reed was 2-for-16 in the past week. Betancourt was 7-for-18 during the same span.

cus just a few days ago Ozzie was calling him his MVP ...
edit:
(Updated 04/20/2006). Brandon McCarthy is White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen's favorite for team MVP right now. Not only has the right-hander showed his manager that he could successfully make the transition from starter to reliever, but he's dominated. "To me, since we've been playing, besides Thome and (Paul) Konerko swinging the bat real well, we've won a lot of games because of 'Mac,'" Guillen said. "I think (pitching coach) Don Cooper is doing a tremendous job to monitor him."

True.. I just saw this stat on that..
