What's the Scoop on Neftali Feliz? Will He Help the Rangers?

Have you heard of Neftali Feliz yet? If you haven't, you will. He is the newest pitcher for the Texas Rangers and has been throwing some serious heat. His fast ball is supposed to be consistent at 95-99 mph. His last name (feliz) means happy, and I am sure he is making a lot of Texas fans happy as they approach the play offs in October.

Here is a video of him pitching:


Playing Oakland last night Neftali Feliz had two perfect innings and was an awesome presence on the mound. In those two innings he struck out 4 A's players in style. He has been scouted like crazy so we will see what Texas will do to make sure they hand on to Feliz. We all know they need him, but I am sure a lot of other baseball managers feel the same way.

Last night was the big debut and we can only imagine the fanfar Mr Happy will get if he keeps this up. But as all of us know in the sports world, the trump can leave as soon as it comes. Let's just see how much of the magic Neftali can hold onto.
