I'll be interested to see if Leyland and Piniella continue to do that after Jones and Dempster are gone, and Marmol and Zumaya become more experienced. I'd be willing to bet that Leyland and Piniella "got lucky" in the fact that it's easy to convince rookies to accept a set up role while a veteran (no matter how marginal that vet is) holds the closer role.

 

I have to agree with that. Our high leverage guys this year have been Shouse and Villanueva. Before CV got burned out he was nails. After he got burned out we started to lose games in the later innings where CV would have pitched and gotten us out of jams. I firmly believe that Villanueve is our team MVP so far this year for all the work he did in the first half.

Fan is short for fanatic.

I blame Wang.
