[Kingdom]

You're really going to use Rosario as a closer, if the deal passes?

[HollywoodLeo]

Where would you put him? In the rotation?

[HollywoodLeo]

That wasn't a sarcastic question, though.

I honestly didn't notice Rosario's endurance until I made this thread. (I wasn't really focusing on endurance when looking at his page as my only goal was to find a better closer.)

I may rethink my pitching set up, but I'm not certain.

It's not like I have a bad rotation as is.

[Kingdom]

But he's your 2nd best pitcher and his stats were on par with Paris Francis.

[Kingdom]

I mean, I'll deal you some relievers if you'd like to deal me Anibal. Or maybe Wolf.

[HollywoodLeo]

he was 13-10 with a 5.02 ERA and a 1.39 WHIP

That's not really on par with Francis (19-11 with a 3.57 ERA and a 1.09 WHIP)

That being said, I'm still considering moving him into the rotation the more I think about it.

[Kingdom]

I'll take his numbers.


I was looking at someone else anyways. Oh well.

[HollywoodLeo]

Updated to reflect the Scott Linebrink-Anibal Sanchez trade

Moved Linebrink to closer and Rosario into the rotation.

I also organized the tables a little better.
