JorgeFabregas Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 Their lineup is stacked, starting pitching should be above average (Liriano may be back), and their bullpen should be fine with Crain, Mijares, et. al. Their defense is their only question mark and really it should be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G&T Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 QUOTE (dmbjeff @ Apr 5, 2010 -> 12:31 PM) Well the Nathan injury is huge, no doubt, having a proven 9th inning guy makes a team much better, but the rest of the pen, the 6th,7th,8th inning, LOOGY guys are all the same, minus Rauch who is now the closer. I am just saying the bullpen is still solid and Rauch could put up 40 saves and not miss a beat. Closers are so volitile, I mean look at Aardsma, who would have thought he had it in him to close at the level he did last year. Rauch could do it too. I think their bullpen is fine. If the Sox had Rauch as the closer, would you be saying that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a manager gives him the shot and can continue to put out good outings, then you get 40 saves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
