Rangers Keep Neftali Feliz In The Bullpen

By Ben Nicholson-Smith | March 24, 2011 at 1:30pm CDT

The Rangers will open the season with a rotation of C.J. Wilson, Colby Lewis, Tommy Hunter, Derek Holland and Matt Harrison and Neftali Feliz will return to the bullpen after an extended spring stint as a starter, according to MLB.com's T.R. Sullivan (on Twitter). The decision provides manager Ron Washington with the proven closer he sought and lessens the chances that the Rangers have to look outside of the organization for relief help.

The Rangers considered moving Feliz to the rotation because of his potential to be a shutdown starter. He won last year's AL Rookie of the Year as the Rangers' closer, saving 40 games and posting a 2.73 ERA with 9.2 K/9 and 2.3 BB/9 in 69 1/3 innings. Last week, 55% of 6,681 MLBTR readers said they would return the 22-year-old to the bullpen.

      this is a good move..

      I mean, how awesome of a reliever would Jon Lester be?

      This is going to start a trend throughout baseball.

      Yeah, it’s a good thing the Rays kept David Price in the bullpen and that the Cardinals kept Wainwright back there too. Both were big-time prospects with the stuff to be frontline starters, but let’s be honest, why risk getting 200+ great innings from them when they’ve already proven they can give 60 in a limited role?

      Sound logic by the Rangers on this one. Truly a great decision.

          difference is they gave Joba a chance to see if he could stick..

        • Encarnacion's Parrot

          11 years ago

          True, but my point is now that he’s back in the pen, he’s just as screwed up as he was when starting. He doesn’t miss bats at the pace he was, and doesn’t produce nearly as many ground balls, not to take away him being a huge FIP lagger.

        • notsureifsrs

          11 years ago

          if you connected 2008 to 2010, you’d see standard reliever volatility. his k/bb was actually up from 2008, he just gave up a few more HRs and stranded runners at a lower rate

          maybe give it more than 70 innings before concluding he’s screwed up

        • Encarnacion's Parrot

          11 years ago

          Ehh.. not to say you’re wrong because for the most part you are correct, in response to your k/bb portion of the argument, that’s kind of like saying Carlos Marmol must be average because he only had a 2.65 k/bb in 2010.

          Walks went down, missed bats went down even more, WHIP went up a measily 0.04, but it’s still valid.

          My error was comparing his 2008 fWAR to his 2010 and not realizing that he made 12 starts in ’08, which, correct me if I’m wrong, does raise a pitchers WAR value.

        • notsureifsrs

          11 years ago

          right, k/bb wasn’t the focus of the argument. i mentioned it in to make clear that he didn’t fall off a cliff by any stretch – the change was largely in the HR/strand depts

          you’re right that his swstr was also down from 2008 (up from 2009, though), but it’s not a sure thing that it would have stayed at 11% if he had stayed a reliever. it’s a 100 inning sample — some of which were innings as a starter — followed by a 70 inning sample. volatility is the name of the reliever game, and he’s got a short career behind him

          you’re right about WAR, and you may even be right that joba’s pitching was set back by being tried as a starter. but i don’t think we have any date to demonstrate that convincingly yet

          not to mention that i think nyy should have kept him a starter anyway

        • Encarnacion's Parrot

          11 years ago

          you’re right that his swstr was also down from 2008 (up from 2009, though)

          And in 2009 he was a starter for the entire season! I can’t knock on a pitcher who hasn’t even been fully tested as a starter yet [Feliz], but Chamberlain had a full season and was average at best. If he’s in the pen for all of 2011, his stats should reflect closer to 2008 than 2010.

        • notsureifsrs

          11 years ago

          it’s really hard with a young player. how much of it was some inability of his to pitch as a starter and how much was the league adjusting to him, right? it’s not far-fetched to think that in only his second year, guys getting their second and third and fourth ABs against him (and all the scouting material on him increasing in quantity and quality) will fare better than when he first came up and blew everyone away

          joba was rushed to the bigs because he was striking everyone out everywhere. and when he got to the bigs, he kept missing bats. but it would be pretty naive to think he could keep up at that pace, even as a reliever. it’s extremely rare

          all i’m battling back against here is the idea that trying joba as a starter than “ruined” him. there was an obvious opportunity cost, but none of the data suggests very strongly to me that pitching as a starter set him back. he was a starter in the minors and took less than a full season off from that role

          i understand the argument that nyy mishandled him and messed with his confidence. so you could say that the experiment set him back. but that seems like a “this is what happens when you manage a player poorly” issue and not a “this is what happens when you let a reliever start” issue

        • jwsox

          11 years ago

          dont forget about joba he was messed with to an extreme extent. innings limit, pull him when he shows one sign of struggling and not lettting him work it out, moved to the pen, moved back to rotation, moved to set up, moved to long duty. when someone is moved around that much in a short amount of time like joba was its going to mess with you. This season will be a sign for him he knows for a fact he is the 7th inning guy

        • LifeLongYankeeFan

          11 years ago

          As a 4 or 5 starter Joba is alright but he’s not a top of the line starter.

        • notsureifsrs

          11 years ago

          you are basing that on 150 AL East innings – one season

        • jwsox

          11 years ago

          you have to admit that 150 innings in the al east is like 250+ in the AL west, central, NL west and central and maybe the NL east

        • notsureifsrs

          11 years ago

          that’s a credit to joba, not a knock. the sample is still not large enough to write him off as a quality starter

        • LifeLongYankeeFan

          11 years ago

          Yeah that’s a good point. Not sure if he has a changeup or not but if he does and he can throw a 93-94 mph fastball, with that slider he has and throw in a curve and I could see him being a 2 or 3 starter.

      • Guest

        11 years ago

        Yep… because those 5 games Price pitched as a long reliever are equivalent to being one of the best closers in the league for a season.

    Makes sense. If they were serious about making Feliz a starter then they would have been focusing him on that all winter and they would have kept Francisco.

    I still think he’s better off for the Rangers as a starter, but suddenly pushing him into that role with no real back up closer is just asking for trouble.

      Probably. Then again, Alexi Ogando, Darren O’Day, and Darren Oliver were all lights-out last year, and Mark Lowe has shown signs of closer stuff before when he hasn’t been injured. Texas may have figured they’d be in good shape even without Francisco and Feliz in the pen. I suspect if Lowe hadn’t been so awful this spring, the Feliz decision might have gone the other way.

    It also leaves them with a pretty horrific group of starters. Good luck with all that. Back to the old Rangers, lots of offense and no pitching (though their defense is actually pretty good these days).

        Yea, that is definitely true. It is a very strong offense (IF the injury prone Kinsler, Cruz, and Hamilton can stay healthy). Plus as I noted above, they have a good defense as well. I’m just not a fan of the starters, that’s all I am saying.

          Haha.

Terrible Angels’ moves have been discussed at length in many a thread this offseason though, so I will leave it at that.

    That’s an awfully thin, inexperienced rotation for the defending AL champs. I like Derek Holland, but Tommy Hunter will drop off massively this year (4.8 K/9 doesn’t bode well), and Matt Harrison (5.3 K/9, 4.5 BB/9) will have to get much better to stick in the rotation. They have to be working on a deal for an established starter. Young for either Blanton or Nolasco, perhaps?

    I actually don’t mind this non-move. Hes still incredibly young so when the trade deadline comes around and RPs come available they can bring one in and move him then to the rotation. By the time the playoffs come he’ll be able to throw 8 innings no problem. I’m okay with this gamble.

        Are you sure? I think Feliz could close until the trade deadline; then the Rangers pick up a closer at the deadline and have Feliz start every game the rest of the season. Just keep that shoulder iced down!

    Seriously, I told you they would keep him as the closer, I used Papelbon as an example but this is one of those things that work out well, I am sure next year they will take a better look at him, but Feliz is a closer and with Feliz closing, you all should be Happy like his name translates from spanish 🙂

      Why do you assume that Feliz is nothing more than a 4th or 5th starter.. If he developed in to a legitimate elite starter, where are you going to pick up one of those without giving up half the farm (again)

      • Rockiesfan4ever

        11 years ago

        Because as his FIRST SEASON as a starter they wouldn’t want to throw him out there for 200+ innings and be a workhorse. He wouldn’t be someone to carry a rotation. He may have DEVELOPED into an Ace but you never know a). about the people who are taking his spots in the rotation and b). how quickly that would have happened.

          While your IP limit arguement is legitimate, having him give you 175 IP of 3.5 era ball is sill more valuable than 60 IP of 2.5 era ball with 40 saves..

          CJ Wilson became your ace in his first year out of the pen.. and gave you 200 innings as well

        • Rockiesfan4ever

          11 years ago

          But you have to compare who else they would get to replace him in the other roles. If you are getting 60+ IP of 2.50 ERA and 40 saves while your other starter gives you 150+ IP of 3.75 ERA then I’d definitely say that Neftali in the pen is more valuable. Vice Versa; if you get 175+ IP of 3.50 ERA out of Neftali as a starter but your bullpen blows 20+ games then you needed Feliz back there

        • notsureifsrs

          11 years ago

          there are lots of problems here i don’t feel like explaining, but i’ll mention this one: feliz didn’t even give you 2.5 ERA ball last year. which was his first and only year, btw

          a really widespread assumption is that because he was good last year, he’ll always be awesome as a closer. despite that being the most volatile position in baseball

          in 30 2009 innings, feliz posted an ERA of 1.7 and a FIP of 2.5. his BABIP was .169

          in 70 2010 innings his BABIP increased 55 points to a still-low .224. his ERA was 2.7 and his FIP was 3

          in 70 2011 innings, what will happen if his BABIP returns to league average, or even just below (avg is around .300)? what if he gives up a couple more homeruns in arlington? what if he just has a few bad games?

          relievers are extremely volatile. it may not be a given that he’d be a stud starter, but it also isn’t a given that he’s a star closer. treating the second one as if it is a given will lead to mistakes in your analysis

    Feliz was arguably their best pitcher this spring. Why you insist on using arguably your best pitcher in the bullpen is beyond me. I hate this move, hope it works out for the best though

    I really, really, really hope Derek Holland has a breakout year this year. But since the Rangers seem to have a massive crush on Matt Harrison and Tommy Hunter, I’m sure Holland will get sent back to AAA when Webb comes back. Why stick your top prospects in the rotation when you can stick a bunch of crappier pitchers in their place instead? Or use them in the bullpen for an inning at time

    I find this decision even more confusing when you take a look at Cj wilson, who had a fine year in the pen in 2009, they moved him in to the rotation and he was their best starter all year long…

    So if the only difference as to why CJ Wilson was moved to the rotation and Feliz is not is because Feliz had 40 saves and Wilson only had 14…

    Well thats just idiotic now isn’t it.

      (Yes it’s me dissenting again). While Im not a big expert on the Rangers’ bullpen and C.J. Wilson but you have to look at his stuff and the ability rather than just the stats

        So you’re argument then is,

        CJ wilson, awesome in the pen awesome in the rotation.
        Feliz, awesome in the pen, not awesome in the rotation.

        Doesn’t make all that much sense.

        mmk!

        as a reliever in 2009, wilson had two good pitches: a fastball (+7.5) and a slider (+1.0). he threw the FB 70% of the time and the slider 18.5%. a cutter and a change each were used around 5%

        as a reliever in 2010, feliz had to good pitches – a fastball (+19.3) and a curveball (+4.1). he threw the FB 82% of the time and the curveball 14%. a change was thrown about 4% of the time

        feliz now has a cutter in addition to his change. so what am i missing? is wilson scrappy?

    Good, this is where he should be, you don’t take a Rookie of the Year winner with 40 saves out of that spot. Keep him there and he won’t become Joba 2.0
