Joel Zumaya now closing for Tigers

Manager Jim Leyland indicated Tuesday that Joel Zumaya has taken over for Fernando Rodney as the Tigers' closer.
"If we have a lead in the ninth inning, that's who will pitch," Leyland said. "He's fine." Of course, Leyland added that Rodney and Kyle Farnsworth may also get save chances. Zumaya promptly blew a save Tuesday night, allowing four runs in the 14th inning of a 10-8 loss to the White Sox after Rodney threw three scoreless innings.

Zumaya is the closer for now

Re: Joel Zumaya now closing for Tigers

Well I would say to keep Farnsworth away from any lead the tigers may have unless its by 10 runs, but prepare to be back into a one run ballgame.

Zumaya should turn it around eventually. He is a good pitcher he can clearly throw hard. However I think he will play good in the future.

I don't know about this. Zumaya has blown many games lately with his horrible pitching. Rodney has been doing great from what I've seen.
