Eno Sarris RotoGraphs Chat
With a phone full of pictures of pitchers' fingers, strange beers, and his two toddler sons, Eno Sarris can be found at the ballpark or a brewery most days. Read him here, writing about the A's or Giants at The Athletic, or about beer at October. Follow him on Twitter @enosarris if you can handle the sandwiches and inanity.
From April 5 Chat. Call me when you want RotoGraphs Chat with Drew.
April 5 … 12:34
Comment From Oskar
Do you think Perez will hold on to the closing job? And if not when will Pestano be called upon?

Eno Sarris:
No, and soon!

Comment From Drew
You’ll end up 100% wrong on C.Perez. His velocity yesterday was better than it was at any point last year (which he pitched hurt). Indians are nowhere near considering a move. Pestano is fool’s gold.

Eno Sarris:
Perez’ velocity was not down yesterday, we have an article about that on RG. I just don’t think he’s any good. Among the top 30 in saves last year, he had a walk rate, strikeout rate, and ground-ball rate ranked between 25th-30th. He’s one of the worst closers in the league.

As I predicted on April 5, you were 100% wrong on Chris Perez. Just sayin.

Eno Sarris:
He’s finally got his peripherals up to average!
[And if you got em all right, you’d be the first person ever, so that would be a pretty awesome thing.]
