Neftali Feliz Question

[Jaypers]

With the callup to the bigs, when do you think is the opportune time to list his cards? Curious to get your votes.

If 'other', please explain.

I'd definitely have somethin of him listed so that it's up when he first goes into a major league ballgame. Even if he is wild or ineffective, people are going to see his electric stuff. 100 mph fastballs are money for this hobby, even if the player is a reliever (see Joel Zumaya for the first couple years of his career).

Other than that, I'd probably throw some stuff up as soon as he has a great outing.

Other, when he goes on an Edison Volquez-esq roll.

I say now or later this year only because I wouldn't count on him ever becoming a starter again. If Texas is still in the race he could be huge down the stretch throwing the gas past people in relief, kind of like Joba and David Price did in the past.

Next spring. Texas Ranger sources have stated that he will move back to the starting roll in winter ball so he can be ready for starting next spring. There WILL be Feliz buzz next year, barring injury.

That would be my plan if I had any of his cards, Millwood and Padilla are FA's and I doubt both sign, so that means Holland, Hunter, Feliz, Feldman and McCarthey is the possible rotation with maybe Millwood.

You might want to add Sheets to that rotation for next year. I really think he will sign with the Rangers in the Offseason and be next year's #1

I'm actually listing a few tonight for the callup buzz and holding a few til the starting job/spring buzz next year. I feel it's time to sell the sizzle, appropriate words with a 100mph fastball

I was thinking that when I wrote it, I hope he'd be in his best form, but I don't think he will be, if the rotation I said is the one they have without Millwood, they really won't have an ace so I expect them to pick up 1 above average pitcher atleast whether it be Millwood or Sheets, I'm kind of hoping both.

No wonder there was a reason some guy bought all my lowend autos of him. I was curious to why a few people asked If I had anything of him(didn't display them). I still have the gold, and threw it up.
