| BHQ take: Time to start moving the closer markers. Jansen and his 2.29/2.44 ERA/xERA combo is simply a better pitcher than League, who has corresponding 6.28/4.40 mark. Yeah, League has been a little unfortunate, but his weak 4.4 Dom is putting himself in harm's way. Now this looks like just a matter of when. —Jock Thompson | |
