BP Chats

Date	Question	Answer
2008-10-17 13:00:00	Here's the problem with the argument that you take flyers on kids and "guys" in the bullpen: the Mets did precisely that this year (besides Wagner), and it cost them a playoff berth. I understand not overpaying for the next Kyle Farnsworth, but all the Flushing Faithful will not miss Luis Ayala's corpse. (Razz from New York, NY)	Who made that argument? I just said I wouldn't waste money on guys like Farnsworth or Fuentes, nor would I overpay for Rodriguez. Look at the Rays pen. The Phillies. Heck, outside of Papelbon, it's not exactly a distinguished crew in Boston. The closer doesn't matter if you can't get to him. (Will Carroll)
2008-09-16 13:00:00	Mets, Phils or BrewCrew...who get's left out? (Vinny from NYC)	I wish I knew. The Phillies seem to have a slightly easier road than the Mets and Brewers. I have this sense that the Mets bullpen situation is going to boomerang on them again, though. There's no reason for Luis Ayala to be a successful closer, and just because it worked for a couple of weeks doesn't mean it's going to keep working. (Steven Goldman)
2008-09-12 13:00:00	Come on, say something nice about Luis Ayala, he's certainly had value to the mets outside of being a token latino, right? (Dep from NYC)	I don't know if anyone one on the Mets could be singled out as "a token latino," but what I do think he demonstrates is my original point, which is that most closers are made, not born. (Christina Kahrl)
