and its official Farnsworth in as closerOriginally Posted by easyliving
Time for Kyle Farnsworth to take over closing duties. He was very solid as a closer with the Rays before his injury a few years back and has had a solid start to the season as well.
Problem with Farnsworth is his velocity has been steadily declining the last few years.
For as bad as Farnsworth is, guess it's better to throw a straight fastball at 94 than a splitter that doesn't split at 86, which is the puss/batting practice Valverde was lobbing in there.Problem with Farnsworth is his velocity has been steadily declining the last few years.
Only the Mets would be dumb enough to give that fatass another chance. He should've been out of baseball for a while now, yet some dysfunctional franchise always wants to be the hero.
May as well move on from one aged closer onto another. How long will Farnsworth last?
Kyle farnsworth is a hothead idiot and a gas can
Next in line is probably the young Vic Black, hard thrower with nice movement. Problem is he has been unable to control that movement.May as well move on from one aged closer onto another. How long will Farnsworth last?
vic black has basically a 1:1 k:BB ratio in the minors which will never cut it as a closer. i really dont see why the mets dont give young gonzalez germen a shot...he did get roughed up friday, but before that he had 8 1/3 scoreless innings, and he has 10K in 11 innings with a 1.06 WHIP. he has the stuff to be a closer, even though he is younger but still...
Correct for now, but if he can learn to harness that control without losing velocity, he has potential.vic black has basically a 1:1 k:BB ratio in the minors which will never cut it as a closer....
I would love to knock bobby parnell out.
