Chapman
Anyone else concerned about Chapman's wildness recently?
If he doesn't get that ironed out I'm wondering how effective he'll be in late innings. How comfortable will it be to bring him into the 8th inning with runners on base? He may need to go to AAA to find his control again. That would put Cordero, Massett, Bray, Ondrusek, Willis, Burton, Lecure in the pen. |

Re: Chapman
nope, he just needs innings to iron out the wrinkles, then he will be effectively wild

"Chapman, closer of the future?" And by "the future" they mean "after CoCo gets lit up 4 or 5 times in a row and it's only April." Am I the only one that sees that Coco is washed up? Oooo "he lost weight"...  We'll see how that works out for him.

Re: Chapman
Not at all gotta knock off the rust. He will be fine by the regular season it is hard to control a 100 mph ball when you have rested for a bit.
