NEW YORK (WFAN) — The Yankees should strongly consider going with a closer-by-committee approach after Aroldis Chapman cost them a win against the Red Sox on Sunday night, WFAN’s Mike Francesa said Monday.
“You don’t have a top bullpen if your closer can’t get anybody out,” Francesa said. “So you can talk about the numbers game, and they can talk about how this bullpen stacks up with the great Yankee bullpens like ’96 and etc., etc. — it is all nonsense, it is all just empty conversation if your closer can’t do the job, and Chapman right now can’t do the job.
