The Cleveland Indians have a bullpen ERA of 4.65, good for second to last in the majors. Betancourt was a disaster as a fill-in closer and the tribe is 1-9 in their last ten. Thank god Joe Borowski and his poor man’s Jamie Moyer fastball have returned. I had a fantasy baseball magazine a few years back that had this to say about a closer with similar stuff, “Jose Mesa is pitching without a net and when he falls, he’s going to bloody himself something awful.” Something tells me I could copy and paste that blurb into Joe Borowski’s second half projection without much opposition. It’s not just the bullpen’s fault. The SP’s have underperformed and Hafner makes me wish I had drafted Gary Sheffied. Gross. What the team really needs is for someone to light a fire under its ass. Enter the greatest Baldwin of all time, outside of the unrelated Animal Mother, to demonstrate the power of speech.
