Awards Gagne >>> any Finest reliever imo
He was my closer for the longest time, I might drop Anderson and go back to him. I feel like people were getting used to Gagne's delivery since everyone was using him.
Too many people don't use Gagne properly and then you can just sit high heat or low off speed and destroy him.
Same with Mo, some people rely on his cutter too much. Jansen has this issue as well.

Replace Kimbrel with SS Eckersly. Better control and has nasty movement. Kimbrel has always been too wild for me. Another cheap and surprisingly good option is Prime Sergio Romo. Just because he’s not a 99 doesn’t mean he’s not good. He’s surprisingly good and his slider and cutter are gross

Prime Jake McGee is still dirty.

I agree but I also haven't taken the time to learn to pitch with him. Have plenty other options

Yeah, I consider him my weakest bullpen arm. Although he should be nasty. But I would also agree I just have not used him enough to be good with him.

Very true. Wouldn't you say that all three of those guys are very similar? Maybe too similar to have in the same pen?

Mo and Jansen yes, so I use Mo instead of Jansen, but Gagne is different enough with the vulcan change.
Any reliever can be awful if they are not used right.
