Well, he looks more like a rapper than baseball player, that’s for sure LOL!
-
I would like to see our opening day players play together more often, but according to Cora’s strategy is not going to happen.
-
Xander has to steal that base.
-
We own Colme. Walk it off!
-
It was working just fine an hour ago or something, probably it’s something temporally.
-
Me. Seems like the fantasy app is not working.
-
Swi is not going to have a lot of chances in this team, and the few he has gotten are not helping him to get more.
-
Great couple of def plays.
-
LOL! You’re right.
-
Yeah! We have elections for president in a couple of months. It would be perfect LOL!
-
Velazquez for president of Mexico LOL!
-
It wasn’t even close Mitch.
-
JD loves the other way. Keep rolling!
-
This should be all for Pom. They need to see what’s wrong with him.
-
That DP came from nowhere LOL!
-
Time to call Velazquez if Pom gets another hit or a walk.
-
Well, this is not what expected from Pom. BTW why didn’t Price start tonight?
-
I fully expect a great night of Pom. Snell is their best guy, but still.
-
Kind of the point.
-
So the other years don’t help but this does? Thus far he is a 86 SV% closer— My guess wasn’t that bad LOL! Yeah, the sample doesn’t help. A closer is typically your best RP. IMO Miller is better than Allen, but Miller doesn’t close. Think about it. Probably Miller wasn’t the the best example, but would I give him Kimbrel’s money to play as a closer? Hell no. The 9th inning is not for everyone —check out how many succeed trying to replace Papelbon no named Kimbrel.
-
86% is not an elite number to me. Miller is an excellent set up guy, but a closer? mmmmmm... the fact he is not, probably speaks volumes. The point is that the 9th inning is not for everyone.
-
Well, I have some bad memories watching him closing. I have to check the numbers, but I could bet that his career SV% is not even 85%, which is not what you expect from a guy who is that good.

Regarding relievers, I think most of us think that most of them are crap shots. On the other hand, only a dozen or fewer can handle high leverage situations decently while staying relatively healthy, but not year after year consistently. Only a handful or fewer can handle consistently high leverage situations year after year while staying healthy —Kimbrel is one of them. Also, As I always have said, the 9th inning is not for everyone regardless the stats under your belt —Look at Miller, excellent reliever (setup man), awful closer. Said that, pay the man.
-
JD looking good in the OF too. Let’s make a couple of runs insurance.
-
Can’t wait to watch him at Yankee stadium with Mookie, Beni and/or Hanley on base.
