I understand he's considered only a borderline closer, but what do you all think of his chances of lasting out the year at that spot? Next in line is Bottalico, and he's just terrible..

I like him... he's been solid so far, and pitched reasonably well last year. I think it's actually Turnbow who's next in line, mind.

I'm an Adams owner & I'm hoping the Brewers give him some chances soon. The times he's been in he's looked pretty good.
I think his chances are good. He seems to have the stuff.

I think Adams can hold the job all year.
Next in line? Who knows? Turnbow has been just average and Botallico not much better. Acutally De Le Rosa has been pretty good...

The Brewers generate their fair share of save opps if I'm not mistaken. He'll get his chances

Yup - there's a reason why everybody was so big on Kolb.

Actually, due to the Brewers very mediocre lineup, when they win, they won't win by much. This translates into a decent number of save opportunities.

adams has been really good so far. He just needs to get save opps which will come in time.
I wouldn't trade him for a hot starter like Brandon Lyon at this point. I have more confidence in Adams.
