If Koch can't get his velocity back up, why should he be rewarded the closer role. Until he proves that he can be effective in getting outs again, I believe Marte is a little higher on the depth chart than Koch.
I don't really understand why we need to give Koch a chance to earn he closer sport back when Gordon has been flawless in that role so far, since being appointed closer.
