Joe Nathan (SF Giants)

[The Jury]

He's getting popular throughout Yahoo fantasy baseball. Why? Is Tim Worrell only a temporary guy who was supposed to fill in for a month or two and nothing more?

[Guest]

He's gotten 4 wins already this year, has only given up 1 ER and has a couple holds(some leagues have holds). Worrell is the closer for the year. It is his job to lose. Nathan was warming up in the pen late in the game with a tight lead, but thats only cause Worrell has saved the last 3 consecutive games, so he needs a rest. Nathan is a solid middle reliever atleast for now. I wouldn't pick him up, cause I still remember how he was in years past and i need him to continue to pitch well before I give him my confidence. I'm a Giants fan

God $()*&@()#*&@$#)(*!!!!!!!!

He just gave up 3 hits and 3 runs in 0.2 IP! Now he's in line for the loss!

The law of averages kicked in...he couldn't keep that sub 1.00 ERA forever.

Three bad outings in a row for Nathan. As a Moss owner, I'm royally pissed tonight.

[EE]

didn't Moss load the bases for Nathan?

[bleach168]

Yes, and with two outs, Nathan allowed all of them to score.

I blame moss.

joe dont blow

Nathan gave up a double to Jose Vidro who leads the majors in doubles, you can't completely blame Nathan for giving him the loss when Moss was the one who loaded the bases for Vidro in the first place.

So is Moss the Real Deal, or is he just making the 1st pass thru and once hitters see him, he will start to drop off in value? Is Nathan worth more in the long term than Moss?
