Would someone take a moment to explain "Velociraptor Jesus" to me. I'm trying to tie David Price in with the tenents of intellegent desing, but I still can't figure it out.

We’ll assume that if Price came up today he would throw around 27 innings as a reliever, and make eight starts for 45 innings. A 4.5 ERA for starting, a 3 ERA for reliever, obviously he could do something like become Velociraptor Jesus combined with Mariano Rivera out of the bullpen, but for now we’ll assume he’s good, not great. We’ll place the pLI of his relieving duties at 1.25 – roughly the 7th inning guy on most teams – and the starter pLI around 0.95.
