But if Joe really wants JP to be available for the highest leverage situations every night (which I do not disagree with), essentially making it impossible for him to close, than why not give Thayer a shot to close while hes still up? I mean the guy has been a closer his whole career, has “closer stuff”, and is there really another option? It cant get any worse than last night, and I thought Thayer looked solid even though he allowed those 2 runs.
And really, what are the other viable options at this point? I guess Joe is just going to continue with the “by situation and matchup” thing, but if were going to have someone in our bullpen that is called a “closer”, than I would much rather see the ’stache in there than fuckin Izzy.

You are a racist.

even in college. He can get a little wild inside the strike zone, but 6’6 (he might actually be pushing 6’7) lefties that throw as hard as Price does always take longer to fully develop. He’s going to be really, really good, and age is irrelevant. History is littered with numerous pitchers that took years to fully develop. Hell, Randy Johnson didn’t have everything come fully together for him until he was in his 30s.

Is anyone else worried that he becomes one of those pitchers who rarely gets through the 6th inning because of pitch count. He has seemed to have a lot of trouble keeping his pitch count down this year.

I got a few nos in the other thread, but just wondering why you think that it won’t be a problem for him
