Concerned about Mo

The sky is falling!

I certainly do not want to make a big deal about one game, but my thoughts are he is 42 years old and no one lasts forever. If you listen to Michael Kay, he acts like Rivera will go on forever.

Again, I want to stress I am not basing this thought on today's game, it is just a fact that he is now in his early 40s.

But based on innings pitched and the stress put on his arm, his arm is only in it's mid to late 20's

You mean he won't? I think he'll be elite until at least 80. He's just entering his prime.

Ha-ha, hardy, har-har (as Ralph Kramden would say)... now, let's get serious here.... does anybody know if Farnsworth is available ?

[thequestion]

What's wrong with Mo week or moreover is he cursed because he's the only healthy closer of the three major contenders in the AL East? I don't know what to think but I know his perfect mechanics and the fact he was averaging close to 91 on his cutter is cause for major concern. We should have gotten Soria when we had a chance.

I see most people aren't panicked, but I'll add this anyway - it seems like we've seen similar things from Mo for about the past 5 seasons. Every year we're like "ooooh Mo's done, cutter not cutting, he's blown a save in April, yadda..." and then the real Mo shows up anyway.

No, he's not as dominant as he used to be. No, his cutter isn't as sharp as it used to be, but to worry and think he's suddenly become a Melancon or an Aceves is unwarranted at this juncture.
