    Neftali Feliz as a Starter?

    Feliz started a spring training game this week. Is there any way he starts this year with the Rangers? I mean, why fix what's not broken? He did a stellar job closing games for them last year, so I'm wondering what will happen here.

    Side note: What are the Fantasy implications here? Is he more or less valuable if he starts this year?

    I think they should keep him as a closer.

    Just letting him get some work in......no way hes starting any games. They'd rather he be available 4-5 times a week, not once or twice.

    I'd make him a starter. Seattle wanted to make Morrow a closer, but he proved this past year that he just has too much talent to be wasted in the pen. Feliz has the stuff to be a terrific starter. His ERA won't be great though (probably 4.50-ish).

    texas needs him as the closer for sure. cliff lees absence is a big hole to fill however.
