The Reds haven't decided whether Aroldis Chapman will start or close this season, but a rival scout feels he has figured out the best option.

"I hope they do start him, but they're crazy if they do," said the NL scout. "It's Joba Chamberlain all over again.

"His velocity dropped off in the second inning. He couldn't get his off-speed stuff over the plate consistently. No question in my mind, he's the closer."
