Come on Fredi, we start seeing some consistancy in save opportunities with Meyer and Nunez, and you want to ruin that all because he is now magically healthy? All I have to say to you Fredi is

I'd rather give him 5 or 6 appearances in the minors before calling him up to get back to form.

 

Leo and Meyer have done well in the closer role so there's no reason to change that now.

As far as I'm concerned, Lindstrom should earn the closer role back and not just "get it" as soon as he returns.

Because it appears Dim wants to steal my thunder, Im going to show true rage

 

 

 

/overkill

id rather not have meyer and nunez for the simple fact that meyer is very versatile and doesnt have to be saved anymore in case he is needed in the 9th. this is all if lindstrom is fully healthy

Oh my...

Shouldn't even be on the team, much less the closer of the team.

This.

 

Why wouldn't he have to earn his job back? His ERA is 6.52 or so, which is just God-awful.

this but if he shows good in minors give him a shot back at the closer role. if we have a good closer that greatly improves are pen because we can move meyer, nunez to the 7th and 8th innings

Aren't you the same guy who hates Dan Uggla?

And yet you want a guy with a WHIP near 2 closing games, when fact is, every single reliever we have right now has outpitched him (short sample or not)?

why dont you slow down and read first buddy. I said if we can get a GOOD closer it IMPROVES ARE BULLPEN, by good i wasn't just meaning lindstrom. but if lindstrom shows improvement in his control in the minors then give him a damn shot but not just 2-3 outings i mean a good solid 7-8 times.

I dont HATE anyone on this team except boner. i just think uggla is a dissapointment.

you post some really dumb things sometimes

Well, Lindstrom isn't a GOOD closer, so there's that.

As for your last line...that's ironic.

i know hes not a good closer but there have been many rumors about us getting george sherril or another closer and thats what i was talking about. you should really read and think before you jump all over someone's ass next time.

Calm down, buddy.

No need to get fired up for no reason.

You suggested giving him the role back if he does well in minor league outings. That, in itself, is stupid.

And I'd say the past month or so, (since Lindstrom's been out), proves just how overrated the closer's role is. If you're a good reliever, you're a good reliever. Every single one of the Marlins current relievers has outpitched Lindstrom thus far this year. Bringing him back (and giving him the closer's role at that...even if he goes to the minors and does well) is as dumb (probably dumber) than starting Emilio Bonifacio everyday.

Not including Donnelly and Ayala which means Kiko, Leo, Meyer, Badenhop, Sanches and Pinto there combined ERA's are 2.43.(1.82 if you include Ayala and Donnelly with there short time on the team.)

ya i know, but i was trying to do it and it kept coming up to 4.9 and thats obviously wrong so i was hoping one of you could do it

that might be the dumbest thing i have heard this week.

and if he does good in the minors in 7-8 starts in a row and shows improvement in his control then he deserves another shot. I dont remember the stat but someone posted something saying he had 3-4 starts that really inflated his stats like the phils game. id much rather have a guy like sherril though

and last year when he was healthy he was downright dominant. fact is, you cant say he is a terrible closer because you dont know how long he has had this injury, and to not give him a job back would be foolish if he is fully healthy

I agree. After he has a few appearances in the minors he should come back in a mid relief role and do well before we even consider putting him back as the closer.
