[USML Announce] No way? Jose!

[springkerb at aol.com]

I'm sure there have been lots of successful closers with ERAs above 4, and if my aging memory weren't failing me, I might be able to think of one. Of course, I'll defer to Jeff, the official league roto pundit.

Sorry, I only listen to a real roto writer tell me about my pitcher being the 4th or 5th best pitcher in the pen.  There’s really only one writer/reporter in your family, Kerbs, and you aren’t it.

I don't think it does, but Coke has a career ERA above 4 (even though often used as a lefty specialist) and no confidence on the part of his manager.  Even if Valverde doesn't reclaim the job, Phil Coke is about the 4th or 5th best pitcher in the Tigers' pen.

So one blown save means “struggled to find a ninth-inning solution?”

 

Go White Sox- Tigers suck…as does that lame roto writer.

04.04: Tigers signed RHP Jose Valverde to a minor league contract. (The Tigers said all offseason that they had no interest in bringing Valverde back, but they've struggled to find a ninth-inning solution and the minor league deal comes with very little risk. Valverde will do some throwing at the Tigers' spring training complex before joining Triple-A Toledo. If he pitches well for the Mud Hens, he could climb back onto Detroit's roster. Which makes him a worthwhile stash in deeper fantasy leagues. The 35-year-old right-hander has a May 5 opt-out clause.)
