Feliz was not supposed to be a starter was he?


they were thinking about giving him a chance at starting (i think he needs to improve his slider and develop another pitch first). it worked for CJ, might as well give him a chance to throw more innings, ya know

I'd worry about the control/walks occuring. He has shown a strong year in the closing position, I wouldn't take the gamble. You guys should feel very fortuntate that you have a great closer as it is.
Jays have never had a good one lmao....BJ Ryan....

SURPRISE, Ariz. (AP)—Brandon Webb(notes) is making progress for the Texas Rangers.

Manager Ron Washington says Webb threw 60-65 pitches off flat ground during a 17-minute session Thursday, and that the “ball was coming out of his hand real good.”

The Rangers decided they wanted the right-hander to build up arm strength before getting back on a mound after his short bullpen session during the first workout a week ago. The former NL Cy Young Award winner hasn’t pitched in a major league game since the 2009 opener for Arizona because of shoulder surgery.

Washington says Webb’s arm strength “is certainly picking up” and that he could throw off a mound Sunday or Monday “if everything keeps progressing.” Webb is set to throw again Friday.


hopefully some good news

Neftali Feliz going to make first start, and if it looks promising can see himself as part of the rotation. What do you guys think of that possibility? I still think he should stay as a closer.

I think it's a good decision. An ace-type starter is way more valuable than a closer. That's if he can succeed as a starter ofc. If not, then they have a fallback plan, worth a shot.
