Brian Fuentes has filled the role of closer that was left vacant by Francisco Rodriguez, but he claims that he isn't replacing anyone. "I'm not here to replace anybody," Fuentes said. "What makes good pitchers, especially relief pitchers, is the ability to not let external things matter. I don't let external things bother me. "There's always going to be comparisons. Obviously, Frankie's a great pitcher. It's going to happen regardless. I'm here to help this team win by closing the door in the ninth. That's about it. "Comparisons are for fans. Fantasy leaguers might have a good time with it, but players don't get caught up in that stuff."
