Is it going to be Farnsworth or Dotel?

Is it going to be Farnsworth or Dotel?

Depending on how they both do. I prolly see Dotel being the setup man through mid April, depending on how he pitches.

I think its going to be Farnsworth...at least until July...that is when Dotel is due back from his injury...

[madstork43]

do you think that dotel is worth keeping on my roster for the upcoming season?

Farnsworth is the #1 setup guy in NY right now. Dotel won't be pitching until most likely after the ASB.

The jury is still out on Farnsworth as to whether or not he can handle big time situations in a playoff atmosphere. One thing he has on his side is his electric stuff though. We'll see.

It's supposed to be boh. Wher are you all getting your info on Dotel... last I heard he was slated to be back in May... around the time that Clemens is going to decide to sign with the Astros again...

I also heard Dotel will be back in May

As a Braves fan, I wanted Farnsworth to stay - even though he gave up the two Grandslams in the postseason.

When he's on, he's really on. I thought he could be the next Wholers for us.

That being said I think he's more comfortable as the setup man.

From what I've read it seems to me that he'll be that guy for NY.

From what I've heard, Dotel will be back by mid-May at the latest. Expect Dotel and Farnsowrth to split time being the set-up guy before the break, with whoever's pitching better taking on duties full-time after the break.

Kyle for now
