| Biography: |
| Once the best reliever in a pretty decent Diamondbacks bullpen, something happened during the 2004 season and Koplove has never recovered from it. He fought hard to make the big league club out of spring training, and his experience means that good production coupled with big league bullpen struggles could earn him another shot. The problem is that even now that his arm is 100% his velocity is rarely above 90, and the funky delivery is no longer fooling hitters. Much of his season success will depend on his slider, which has been at best inconsistent. |
