But I don't understand! His ERA in the AL East is so good!

:-D

As for Storen, any time you see an elbow injury it's bad news. Never assume it's only gonna be a week or two. He was barely discounted on draft day for some reason.

The number of better options they have with Bard still in the starter role.
Sad but true.

Ya, ya....I deserve that. But really the guy has only blown 1 Save. I bet they give him a few more chances. Other guys to blow their first Save opp badly this year are:
Mariano Rivera
Jose Valverde
Heath bell


Be nice if he got an out though. :-D
I bet they're all happy to be out of Detroit, that's for sure.

Go Tigs! I think closers are overrated anyways...I'd rather fill those slots with SP's

Well well well...

First out :-b
First Save

Clean inning, 1 K.

I love how everyone's all about preaching small sample size until its convenient for their argument to ignore it. The guy blew one Save. Smallest of sample sizes.

Sergio Santos now has 2 blown Saves, let's crucify him for a bit.

I have had a wild ride in terms of closers. I have Craig Kimbrel who hasn't gotten a chance, Sergio Santos, Javy Guerra, and picked Alfredo Aceves.

It is encouraging that Aceves came in tonight and nailed it down. Santos has sucked :-°

Francisco Cordero is available in my league but I'm not sure there is anyone on my roster I should drop to pick him up. I don't want to drop Santos for him either.

Anyone else is a similar predicament.
