A closer always gets ridden hard, but I agree, the human arm is not meant to throw anything 102 MPH. Hopefully it is not season ending. If they can get him healthy, and freshen him up a bit, maybe he is dominant in the playoffs.
I suspect that the news is not going to be good. I am basing that on Elias’s face last night and Hyde’s demeanor in the presser. Neither of them have much of a poker face.
Yeah they can come play in my game tonight. Their demeanor said it all. He's done. But I think we still are well in the mix. But no sugar coating this is a significant blow. To me the issue isn't so much the need to find a closer. Its that we had some potential pieces coming up/back Sept 1st which would help replace some of our struggling pieces. Now we have to replace our best piece. Once again less margin for error and this falls back on the FO.
