As new standard for closers, Kimbrel eyes perfection in 2014
ATLANTA -- The closer position is baseball's revolving door, the ever-spinning merry-go-round of velocity and movement. Here one day, gone the next. A select few buck the trend. Craig Kimbrel is one of them, already an exception to modern-day baseball's bullpen rule of thumb.
Of the 30 pitchers serving as an MLB team's primary closer during Kimbrel's 2011 rookie...
