I've been using Blake Treinen from the A's as my closer for a while. He's got 98 saves. I also just got Trevor Hoffman as a reward for a program (I think)... I figured I'd let him hit 100 then got to Hoffman full time. I'll still use him out of the pen, just no more closing games out.
I couldn't tell you if he's having a solid real life season, but his card for most of the season was a base 84, and would mod up to an 89, sometimes higher.
His sinker can be devastating. He's only blown 4 chances in 104. He's been in 128 games for me, pit he'd 98.2 innings, he's 2-5, so he blew 5 saves, not 4. ERA OF 2.01 and under a 1 WHIP (0.74) with only 11 walks.
If you're looking for a reliable closer who is vastly underrated compares to his numbers, and will get the job done, you can not go wrong with Blake Trienan. Just a tip...
Do you think he should be another arm in the pen, or keep him closing even though I've got Hoffman's signature series now?
