April 11, 201114 yr QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Apr 11, 2011 -> 11:16 AM) This is very possible. I have noticed some analysts making comments on how Santos has three plus pitches. How many closers can say that? Not many...but not not many need 3 plus pitches though.
April 11, 201114 yr I'd love Santos to be the closer simply because that frees up our 2 dominant lefties for any situation whether it be SU or simply getting out a 1 tough lefty (dump oh-man!'s ass) and still have Crain as well. Edited April 11, 201114 yr by Jenksy Cat
April 11, 201114 yr I thought this would be an appropriate thread for this . . . Anyone missing Bobby yet?

Than that only allows us to have 1 solid righty for all other situations. It's really the same scenario.

April 12, 201114 yr Author Okay, maybe I wasn't joking. Tonight really sucked and I am not sure Thornton is the long term answer for a closer. I like the suggestion of trying Santos there quite a bit, though. Losses like this are supposed to happen in Minnesota or Oakland, not at home. Ugh!
April 12, 201114 yr So thats what, 3 games we've given away? I hate to think this far ahead, but who wants to guess whether 3 games is going to hurt down the stretch.. I hope not.
