maggsmaggs Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 Have to pitchers that have BAA under .200 against both righties and lefties. Thank you Kelly Wunsch and Damaso Marte. Among the other eight pitchers in the league that did it: Gagne, Farnsworth, Soriano, F. Rodriguez, Dotel and J. Valverde.

Loaiza21 Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 We should just deem Marte closer. That'd be the right thing to do. I don't care if he blew 7 saves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care if he blew 7 saves. blown saves as a set up man or middle rilief is alot different than blown saves as a closer...closers almost always start the inning and any blown saves is of their own doing...set up men / middle rilief alot of times come in with runner's on base and have no room for error...
