I wonder if Capps was picked over Willingham because Capps was seen as the best Nationals representative or if they were really looking for another closer. Bell wasn't orginally on the roster, probably because they wanted another closer and needed a Nationals rep and choose Capps.

 

Capps really hasn't been that special this season. He got a lot of save opportunities early in the season because the Nationals were overachieving early and winning a lot of 1,2,3 run games despite having a negative run differential.

I think you've got that right, that's what I assumed. There's no way anyone could think he was having a better season than Hammer.
