Sun Tzu 1,750 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Cam Bedrosian called on for today's save, and he's thrown several balls at eye height. I wonder if his groin injury is bothering him... Link to post Share on other sites

bradwatson 1,613 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Why does Blake Parker get no shot at closing? He's been by far the best reliever in the Angels pen all year. Link to post Share on other sites
Fuzzy_Slippers 3,956 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 (edited) Corey Knebel has been money. He hasn't given up an ER since July 19th. His BB/9 of 5.11 is still high, but he hasn't walked two batters in one inning since July 9th. 15.5 K/9 and a 0.48 HR/9. He's a top 5 closer, no doubt about it. That's not even the most impressive thing. He has pitched in 56 games this season. He has only had ONE appearance where he didn't strike out at least one batter. That's nearly unheard of.

Piotr 108 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Diaz patented something he had done only once before today? He has had some serious stinkers, so I get the point you are trying to make, but he has two holds this season. Link to post Share on other sites
borindia 381 Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Diaz is one of the streakiest closers in the game. Hopefully this means he goes on another long streak of clean saves. Link to post Share on other sites
