July 28, 201312 yr Fernandez goes 8, K's 13, gives up 2 runs. Stanton went Monsterdong. Cishek with another save.

July 28, 201312 yr Can we please take a second and appreciate that Cishek is the best closer we've had in YEARS. I haven't felt this safe watching close games in the 9th since watching the likes of Armando Benitez, Joe Borowski, and Todd Jones finishing off games.
July 28, 201312 yr Fernandez needs to be signed Stanton needs to be signed Cishek needs to be signed Period.

I haven't felt this safe watching close games in the 9th since watching the likes of Armando Benitez, Joe Borowski, and Todd Jones finishing off games. Would you take a top prospect for him if such an offer came in before the trade deadline?

Completely different feeling watching Cishek than the "oh no is it going to happen again" feeling I would get with the likes of Gregg, Lindstrum or that guy formally known as Nunez.

I haven't felt this safe watching close games in the 9th since watching the likes of Armando Benitez, Joe Borowski, and Todd Jones finishing off games. Would you take a top prospect for him if such an offer came in before the trade deadline? I've said recently that it would take a Nick Castellanos to make me willing to part with Cishek. He's under team control for a while longer and he's been putting up sub 3 ERA's consistently. Unless you get top value in return, you keep a pitcher like Cishek. But if an offer were to come where we get offered somebody who can be a well above average position player in the near future, Cishek is expendable.

Yeah, let me reiterate I did say top prospect so, yeah, we're in a very strong position in this case. MLB.com has him at #13 overall (Yelich at #10) and I would agree with your position.

I haven't felt this safe watching close games in the 9th since watching the likes of Armando Benitez, Joe Borowski, and Todd Jones finishing off games. I remember when Benitez was basically unhittable. Borowski definitely had his moments but Todd Jones was great as well but faded a little at the end.
July 28, 201312 yr Nice comeback after getting down and it got a little hairy in the 9th but Cishek got it done. Fernandez was great.
July 28, 201312 yr Borowski was pretty mediocre. What's the franchise record for saves? Cishek is gonna break it at some point.
July 28, 201312 yr Borowski was pretty mediocre. What's the franchise record for saves? Cishek is gonna break it at some point. Robb Nen with 108. Cishek has 40
July 28, 201312 yr Borowski was pretty mediocre. What's the franchise record for saves? Cishek is gonna break it at some point. if he's around for a while longer.. Nen 108 Alfonseca 102 Gregg 61 Cishek's at 40

July 28, 201312 yr And then some IIRC. Basically saying they're not looking to trade unless a team is willing to shell out A TON for a player like Cishek, Dunn, or Stanton.
July 28, 201312 yr I hope they wouldn't take anything less then a top prospect. My question was more to see whether people on here would trade Cishek for a top prospect or if they'd keep him.
