I think it's because Bard was catching Delwiler at Syracuse AAA, same reason to have him catch for Stammen. It's about the pitching, not the bat.
WHY WAS NOBODY COVERING 2nd on a grounder?

No, Carpenter, 3 WALKS in 1 inning is NOT a good job. [Tell his mom to spank him between innings.]
Detwiler was never in AAA. Bard never caught him prior to his first start up here.
