That's how you do it in the 9th

is Ben step up and be the closer so that we can move Devin Jones into the rotation on the weekend or midweek. That may very well happen before the season is out.

He was overpowering in that inning. And he was doing a good job of locating and keeping the ball down. I certainly see why Todd thinks he'll be the closer of the future and why he might take it before the end of this season. I still would like to see him develop a true off-speed 3rd pitch to go with his fastball and power slider. If could master something like a change or a slow 6-12 curve, he'd be absolutely devastating. Just something to slow the bats down a little so they can't sit on his 2 power pitches. But I'm sure Cohen & Co are already thinking about that. It'll come with time and will probably be his offseason assignment.
