Right now he's somewhat like Wacha, save that his fastball is better but his changeup isn't nearly as good. The difference is that Wacha's curve will probably end up being a solid pitch, which is why he'll likely settle in as a fringe #2/solid #3.

Yep.
I'm not insinuating that he'll ever be more than he will be, IMO, he's a ceiling #3 SP'er.
Wacha's ceiling might be a little higher than that, like you said, but I'm becoming a bigger and bigger Joe Kelly fan with each start he makes.
