what are the odds?

what are the chances of Marte taking over the closer roll from Capps?

1%..capps is remarkably consistent..barring injury, why would pitts make a change ?

Thanks, I don't get to watch many NL games. I was just offered Marte as a ad in , in a trade

There is almost no chance he'll be the closer in Pittsburgh. He's tradionally been a one-out/one-guy lefty specialist. This season he's getting the chance to be more than that, but still...

Also, he is almost a lock to be to expensive for Pitt to afford next season, which means he's as good as gone. They aren't going to invest time getting him closing experience so that someone else can benifit. They signed Capps to a long term deal, so he'll get every chance in the world to be their closer.
