Roy finished his last start of spring training with the line of 4.1 IP, 8 Hits, 2 ER, 2BB and 6 SO. I didn't see the game but that tells me he is going to struggle all year to get outs even with the high strikeout total teams, good teams will at some point stop getting themselves out and force Doc into the zone.
Pitching is king in the MLB. Even if you have a good BP starters that cannot take you deep into games will wear out that BP come Sept.
We'll see how long they go with Roy. My prediction is that at some point in April he will go on the DL and we may see Adam Morgan or Jon Pettibone take his spot.
