Joel Zumaya: Future Closer stud?

So I was just watching the Detroit Tigers play the Chicago White Sox game today and Joel Zumaya blew me away once again. I am already high on this super prospect, but the fastball I just saw was impeccable. The location of that fastball to strikeout Alex Cintron was pinpoint.

That ball hit the outside corner in a post where it basically rendered Cintron useless. The factor that made that pitch so exciting was the fact that it was accompanied by the speed of 98mph. If Joel Zumaya can continue to locate his pitches, and bring the heat I see great things for this youngster. Fantasy owners keep an eye on this kid; he could be closing in Detroit at any time. When he gets that job, he might not let go of it either…
