Bad Darvish? Bad Brandon Morrow? Bad Chatwood? Bad The Russell sitch? Bad Heyward? Still meh, still making a ton of money. Add the Justin Wilson trade to that list (Paredes looks great as a prospect for Detroit). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Almost all of the damage against Kimbrel has been on the fastball. He might as well become Marmol-esque and throw a ton of curves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soxfan49 Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Kimbrel has allowed 9 homers. I could be wrong but that seems like an exponential amount for 1) a closer in general and 2) for a closer who's only been pitching for a few months.
