Papelbon

Nice choice my man. I agree. You gotta get a new avatar though.

I think it's Nathan.

Last night it was Dan Wheeler, struck out the side in the ninth.

I remember last year I discussed Papelbon as a young closer I'd like to have for the future, but got shot down because he was supposedly going to be a starter in the future. So give me the veteran, proven commodities: Hoffman, Rivera or Nathan.

I can agree with that Willie. Pap doesn't have the experience the others do , but I like what this kid is showing.

Joe Nathan.....

**austintx05** · 04-14-07, 10:01 AM

I think you need to add Ryan to the list

I know Taco will agree with me on this one... Papelbon sucks!

I'll say Ganage is the best.

Francisco Cordero is not bad either...but not elite (yet).

**austintx05** · 04-14-07, 11:13 AM

I would mention Street before I mention Cordero

Francisco Rodriguez

Amazing how you tout someone and they implode a few hours later!

are you guys morons? papelbon??? cmon. he has no experience. you'd take him over sandman? i'm not even a yanks fan but it's pretty clear that MO is the best closer in baseball.

**moses millsap** · 04-14-07, 08:53 PM

Rivera.

I don't know about adding B.J. Ryan now, after what he did today.
