I'm gonna call him "NFL".
I'd be very surprised if Chapman repeated his success in the American League. I don't have a very high opinion of National League pitchers. Chapman, the wife beater, might be in for quite an awakening once he starts trying to get his fastballs past American League hitters.
The second best pen (yankees) may have just out paced the number one pen (KC)?
Doc - I would tend to agree with you about the NL especially with starters. However, I don't think that NL closers ever get the luxery of pitching to another pitcher. Maybe your saying a NL batting order that uses multiple pinch hitters is not as productive as a AL line up that uses a DH?
Chapmen is solid. I can't believe the Yankees would continue with a BP like this. You would think they would have to trade one of the big 3 - Betances or Miller - with the addition of Chapmen. Maybe the Yankees think they have done this by trading Wilson to Detroit? You have Miller as your set-up, Chapmen as your closer and Betance as your go to arm when the starter gets into a jam in the 6th or 7th inning jam. The second best pen (Yankees) may have just out paced the number one pen (KC)?
What about the salaries of Miller and Chapman? Is Betance paid that much?
can you name me a top NL closer who was recently successful after a shift to the AL
p.s. Hungry, can you name me a top NL closer who was recently successful after a shift to the AL?
Ken Griffey Jr. will be an easy selection
