From Geoff Baker:

So, I got hold of Jack Zdurincek, and asked him for some clarification of the "organziational decision" that was made to pull Yuniesky Betancourt. Told him I didn’t want to create an unnecessary feeding frenzy of trade speculation if this was in regard to Betancourt’s hamstring, or even a disciplinary issue.

"I can’t comment on that,‘’ he said. "I really can’t make any comment.’’

it seems like a lot of middle relievers are volatile commodities. They’ll have a couple of good years, then they just suck, then they could come back again. That’s why you always try and build bullpens on the cheap.

The 8th counts just as much as the 9th.

“Closers” are an antiquated notion that baseball will probably get beyond at some point. Your best reliever should be used in the tighest spots… not with 0 on, up 3 in the 9th.
