brandon lyon's replacement

[BitterDodgerFan]

ok rotoworld says he's given up 12 runs and 16 hits in 6.2 IP. he's pretty much the consensus pick for the first to lose his job, does everyone agree its pena or is qualis the forgotten man here?

having him as my 4th starter i hope he can put ti together once the season starts. but i'm pretty sure Pena will get the first shot at closing when if/when he loses the job.

terrible decision by the d'backs to hand him the job before spring training even started...tpena has so much better stuff, so what if he can go 2 innings and lyon can't

Iagree. Lyon will be on a short leash.

I'm banking on Pena getting the first shot to close if/when Lyon gets yanked. But it could be Qualls are even Juan Cruz. It was a sin for management to name Lyon the closer before ST even finished when the team has a number of much better arms in the bullpen.
