All of those fastballs are above the belt, exactly where you don't want to throw them unless you're trying to give up a home run, lol.

 

Lucky he didn't get it elevated.

 

Ventura going to bring in Reed against Jackson.

 

Last time Reed was brought into this situation, he gave up a hit (runner on 2nd and 2 outs). This is putting even MORE pressure on Reed.

 

Either Reed's your closer or he's not. Not fair to not let him earn it by starting the inning.

They always put Reed in a s***ty ass situation like that.

 

Seriously, he shouldn't be left to clean up a mess. He should be brought in to begin with!

 

When will Ventura and Coop stop the experimentation?

Spring Training phenoms shouldn't be closers, except maybe in AAA.

 

 

I think he can do the job just not right now. Maybe he needs to be a AAA for awhile?

Ventura has been very underwhelming

 

Mostly because of his handling of the closer situation.

 

It really should have been Reed to begin with. We knew Thornton wasn't successful at closing last season and Reed is easily one of the best relief prospects in baseball. We're rebuilding, so why not?
