Why did BB want Kennedy?

I was checkin out the free agent pool in my fantasy league, and who should show up (way down in the rankings btw) on the pitchers list... none other than Joe Kennedy.  I clicked on his notes and saw this;

The Colorado Rockies have decided to shift Kennedy to the bullpen when they resume play after the All-Star break. The lefthander was the team's Opening Day starter this season, but he has struggled most of the year, posting a 4-8 record and 7.04 ERA in 16 outings.

Now this is the same guy who had one foot in the door in Oakland, and was high on BB trade for list.  How happy are we that he didnt hit the panick button and let our young pitching staff work through their early season slumps?
