I'm a Twins fan, and I have absolutely no interest in any Twins starter.

I've heard some good things about Sheets recently, he should be picking it up.

I think that Sheets and Radke will have similar ERA and WHIP numbers overall. The thing with Radke is that playing for a better team, he will likely get more wins, which makes him a better choice. Sheets today gave up 5 runs against the weak LA offense.

Sorry, but you're just ASSUMING that Donnelly will get the saves, but the Angels mgr. said that anyone might get a save opp. including Rodriguez, Donnelly, Weber, Shields, etc. It's a gamble whoever you choose, but if you have a spot take a chance. The way Donnelly's been playing, the might wanna keep him as setup man and move someone else to the closer spot, why switch two spots when you can switch just one?

Scioscia's statement was similar to the one Alou made when it was first thought that Nen would only be out for a couple weeks. He said that he'd be using a closer committee with Felix Rodriguez and Worrell. In fact, Rodriquez is still supposedly a co-closer with Worrell right now, and we know that isn't happening. Scioscia said he'd be going to Donnelly first in save chances, and that effectively means he will almost certainly be the closer unless he proves he can't handle it. No team, including Boston right now is actually carrying through on sharing save chances.
