Tamp Bay Closer Situation

[HillenbrandOwns]

Micelli or Orvella within the next month?

Or will someone else show up in the mix?

orvella has a couple innings and looked moderate, 1 ER in 2IP I think.nothing special, think they'll stick witrh Miceli, i picked up orvella but ive dropped him now.

Orvella was a mess coming out of spring training. A short trip to the minors to work on his mechanics and he back and being put in pressure situations. I say he has looked pretty good in his 2 appearances at Boston and at Texas. I think he gets the closers job by mid-May.

as for other pitchers in the mix, Shawn Camp has to be considered.

Look out for Justin Miller in the minors. He's got some great ratios.
