After Kinzlers blown save, I was gonna write urging the Twins to find a real closer, a la Nathan, Perkins.etc

 

After last night I am rethinking, Kinzler was good...and Ive seen him good before, my question for you, is he a long term solution?

    Oddly enough, I would rather have Kinzler come in to start the 9th with the bases empty than come into the game in the 7th or 8th inning with runners on 2nd and 3rd with 1 out.

    'Real' closers are expensive. The two you mentioned both went to the All-Star game multiple times. A very high bar. We have been spoiled.

    Ideal? No.

    On this team? He has done well for us.

    Concur with the Goat Guy. The best thing about Kinglzer being the closer, is they won't be bringing him in with men already on base. The bad thing about him being a closer is he will break your heart more often than it deserves to be broken. Elite closers are good to have and hard to find. Kintzler doe seem to have the mentality for the job. He just doesn't have the stuff to reach the next level.
