Looking at buying him but haven't heard much about him, good or bad. Thoughts?
He's good for an inning or so, if you mix well. Everyone knows he throws that super slow looping curveball so they all wait for it. You have to make your change ups look like curves and mix in fastballs to really throw people off. Slider could use more break, but I don't ever throw it in the zone just tunnel it with outside pitches.

So probably not worth the 560K price tag?

I would say no but that’s just me. Doesn’t have a good enough slider

I have him in my bullpen. When I say "he's good for an inning" what I mean is "he's shut down good."
Strictly speaking bullpen, if you don't have Gossage and Chapman I'd get them first, but after that Gagnè is a solid pick up.

I absolutely love Gagne, I feel like his pitch mix works really well for me. If you have guys waiting on that curve you pump some fastballs in and they’re like deceptively fast. I’ve had a lot of success with him usually over 1-2 innings. If you don’t have Fingers though that’s a shutdown budget reliever.

I love that Rollie card. I liked the lower one early on and the higher diamond is top notch.

Save your $$ im a Dodger Homer and I sold him after 4 L'S and 5 blown saves he was hot garbage for me.

He’s solid. Changeup fastball combo is deadly. Use the curve as an out pitch when you really need it. Slider doesn’t break a ton, but is still usable.

Any thoughts on 99 Kenley ? Just picked him up-haven’t used him yet-don’t see him mentioned much??

Rivera with a better arm slot. He's good.
