September 13, 200818 yr Gregg sets up Now back from a knee injury, Kevin Gregg wants to return to being a closer. Matt Lindstrom made his case for that role while Gregg was out. Gregg, who pitched a scoreless seventh inning in his return Tuesday and again Friday, "needs to go out there a couple more times, make sure that the knee is going to hold up," Gonzalez said. "And then we'll cross that bridge when we get there." http://www.sun-sentinel.com/sports/basebal...0,6934559.story
September 13, 200818 yr Please dont let him close Fredi. If anything, make him a reliever. Let Lindstrom get the closing practice for next season.
September 13, 200818 yr Kevin Gregg closing again, I can see it happening again, then he will come back, have a couple of good saves in a row, then he will blow a bunch of games in a row, then he will leave with a magical injury, and Lindstrom will come in and close out more games. For some reason Fredi doesn't like the word COMMON SENSE. Sadly i do see him giving Gregg the job back, then we use Tucker next season as closer, hopefully
September 13, 200818 yr Author Highly unlikely this happens, regardless of what Fredi says. It would take a blown save from Lindstrom. Small sample size and all...Lindstrom has had 3 save opportunities, has saved all 3, and has not allowed a single baserunner in his 3 saves. So I doubt Fredi makes the move right now. He's just trying to protect his players, and keep things in-house, imo.

If u are slumping (aka Hermida) u either get demoted or get benched. I hope he keeps Gregg as a middle reliever where he should be.
September 13, 200818 yr Author I think it's just drama to keep us entertained. Everyone knows the '08 Marlins like drama.
