Darrin Downs will execute

[jdeb]

He is the most important man out of camp in my humble opinion. He has above average stuff and possess middle game IQ. He will or needs to replace Coke. Coke will then be one of the most dominant closers of 2013, a real story.

During the game today, both Dickerson and Price commented Coke's velocity is way down, and his control is iffy again, and he's not at the point in which you want to see him start the season.

When asked about the options for Closer and if he thought Coke should get any consideration, Jim Price said, "No way".

I think Coke can be important to the BP, lefties only, but dominant closer? :lmao:

Most important player? Seriously?

Coke can't get RHH out, he'll never be a dominant closer, and really should only be a LOOGY.

Downs also sucks against RHB, so he should also only be used as a LOOGY.

I think people get a little over-excited because of last year against the Yanks.

Dude is horrible against RHB. He just can't get it done.
