Bull Durham's Ebby Calvin "Nuke" LaLoosh . . . a million dollar arm and a 5 cent head.

He hasn't been truly good at any level of baseball. He has a career 4.31 ERA/1.411 WHIP in the Minors and 5.10 ERA/1.441 WHIP in the Majors. 

Sometimes you just have to accept that a guy is what he is.

Side note:
It's really weird how the Reds handle promotions in the minors. Romano was a 23rd round pick out of HS, throws 64 innings of 5.32 ERA/1.508 WHIP baseball at the Rookie level, and goes to A ball the next year. Mahle was a 7th round pick out of HS, throws 34.1 innings of 2.36 ERA/1.165 WHIP baseball at the Rookie level, and has to spend the entire next year at the Rookie level.
