前五名的牛朋
No. 1 -- Minnesota Twins
Last season, Minnesota's bullpen had the best winning percentage in the Major
Leagues (.722), the lowest ERA (2.91) and allowed just 39 homers in 498 innings
, second only to Oakland (37 in 465 innings). Closer Joe Nathan (7-0, 36 saves,
1.58 ERA) held opponents to a .158 batting average and issued only 16 walks in
64 games. Right-hander Pat Neshek (4-2, 2.19, .176 opponents' batting average),
left-hander Dennys Reyes (5-0, 0.89, .197), and right-handers Jesse Crain (4-5,
3.52, 18 walks in 76.2 innings) and Matt Guerrier have different styles, but
all have excellent stuff, throw strikes and do not allow a lot of baserunners.
No. 2 -- Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim
Brendan Donnelly left for Boston, but weep not for the Angels bullpen. Not only
are Francisco Rodriguez (2-3, 1.73, converted 47 of 51 save opportunities),
Scot Shields (7-7, 2.87 in 74 games) and Hector Carrasco (7-3, 3.41 in 56 games
) back, the Angels added Justin Speier (2-0, 2.98 in 58 games for Toronto last
season) to what should be another lights-out bullpen
No. 3 -- Oakland Athletics
The A's come right at hitters with young, hard throwers and effective options
for each situation. Closer Huston Street (4-4, 3.31, 37 saves), Justin Duchsch-
erer (2-1, 2.91, converted nine of 11 save opportunities), Kiko Calero (3-2,
3.41), Chad Gaudin (4-2, 3.09), Brad Halsey and Jay Witasick are back from a
staff that led the Major Leagues with 54 saves and won 25 of 40 decisions. Joe
Kennedy will likely move to the rotation, and lefties Ron Flores and Scott Sau-
erbeck are gone, but the A's added veteran Alan Embree (4-3, 3.27 for the Padr-
es last season) to help against left-handed hitters.
No. 4 -- Detroit Tigers
Left-hander Jamie Walker will be missed, but the Tigers should still have one
of the more effective bullpens in the game, with Todd Jones closing things out
and Jason Grilli, Wil Ledezma, Fernando Rodney and Joel Zumaya bridging the gap
between the starters and Jones. The Tigers also added veteran right-hander Jose
Mesa as another setup option, which will give manager Jim Leyland the option of
resting Zumaya or Rodney more often than he could last year.The Detroit bullpen
held opposing hitters to a .242 batting average last season, the second-best
showing in baseball behind the Mets.
No. 5 -- New York Mets
The Mets will miss Roberto Hernandez, currently with Cleveland, but they still
have Billy Wagner (3-2, 2.24 ERA, 40 saves) to close the door and most of the
rest of the cast back from a bullpen that won a Major League-best 32 games last
season and held opposing hitters to a .239 batting average, which also led the
Majors. Aaron Heilman (3.62 ERA in 74 games), Pedro Feliciano (7-2, 2.09), Dua-
ner Sanchez (5-1, 2.49), Guillermo Mota, and recently acquired Scott Schoenewe-
is and Ambiorix Burgos should give manager Willie Randolph plenty of options
and the Mets another stout bullpen in'07.
補強成這樣還輸給梅子，想不通，不過就用戰績這些所謂專家眼睛摔爛吧
