I chase saves non stop in my total points league. In this case, a save and win both = 6 points. If I have an innings limit and can have someone average 6-7 points per inning pitched (closer) vs 2-3 (starter), I want as many of my innings eaten up by closers as possible.
I need saves bad in a AL legg. Joba was already picked up so I went with Al just in case.
Yeah, no. He's not closing unless Nathan is actually dead and Joba has a beard attack.
Nathan will keep the job and then maybe hand it over to Chamberlain for a time, but then if he stinks I think Nathan would be right back in there. Hanrahan should be ready to go around the all-star break but I'd have to think it would take at least a month for him to be inserted as closer.
Webb probably has the best stuff but he can't consistently get the ball over the plate.
I took a flyer on Petricka in TREauction yesterday. I've held Jones and Webb earlier but sometimes you have to keep casting your line in the same ####hole if you want to chase saves.
Was it? Mejia's good at keeping lefties in the park, bringing him for the 9th doesn't allow Alvarez or Davis to end the game against you, and they got an extra IP in the 10th out of him. And 4 K's in those two innings, mind you.Limp Ditka said:
Sabean is such a honk for his own guys, it'll probably only end up costing him a few mil.Doctor Detroit said:
I think it's mostly because they used Balfour and McGee on back-to-back days before today.
Baseball HQ thinks he's the right reliever to have for the Rays.
