Lots of talk about who should be the closer lately. I thought it might be useful to see just how well everyone on the team is pitching lately. The starters:

Bush | 21.0 | 11 | 26 | 18 | 3 | 4.71 | 1.38 |
Capuano | 23.3 | 17 | 33 | 12 | 3 | 6.56 | 1.54 |
Davis | 26.3 | 15 | 26 | 16 | 15 | 5.13 | 1.56 |
Jackson | 15.3 | 12 | 15 | 5 | 11 | 7.04 | 1.70 |
Ohka | 5.0 | 2 | 6 | 3 | 1 | 3.60 | 1.40 |
Villanueva | 5.3 | 3 | 7 | 4 | 2 | 5.06 | 1.69 |
TOTAL | 96.3 | 60 | 113 | 58 | 35 | 5.61 | 1.54 |
The relievers:

TOTAL | 45.3 | 28 | 47 | 39 | 24 | 5.56 | 1.57 |
TOTAL w/out DT | 41.7 | 14 | 37 | 35 | 16 | 3.02 | 1.27 |
Turns out the bullpen is actually pitching pretty well, with the exception of, well, you know. My personal preference for closer would be A) whoever just finished the eighth inning pitching well (i.e. Matt Wise last night), B) Rick Helling, for the time being, C) Jose Capellan (who has been used only once since the break) and so on. If you're curious, Bob Wickman is approximately option QQ. When (if?) Jorge de la Rosa comes back, I'd like to see him get a shot at the job as well.
What's everyone else's opinion on who should get the job?
