Armando Benitez

[The G-Man]

Public service for those with Worrell (and Rodney, for that matter):

It's an easy call because I'm in a holds league, but I'm gonna hang with both Worrell and Rodney for now. And I'd probably keep both of them in a non-holds league until Benitez and/or TJones resume full-time closing AND prove effective in the role.

Until last night's little burp by Worrell, both of them had been money for my club. The last thing you want to see is a quick FA dump turn into an opponent's long-term closing solution.

Good point.

He has been activated and will have a setup role until Mid May most likely

Oh so very wrong! Benitez got the save tonight.

yeah, all the talk by Alou was that they were going to let Worrell keep closing until Armando showed he had his stuff. Then tonight it's Armando up in the 8th and getting the save. Of course, Worrell has been blowing up the past few times on the mound. So maybe it was a bit of Todd looking bad and Armando being available.

Tim.

Definitely good to see that Benitez is back and closing games...I only had Rivera during the time he was gone.
