Kenny Williams explains why he didn’t pursue Brian Fuentes

Merkin @ WS:

“We still had Erick Threets [who tore his UCL on Friday], and Matt Thornton is coming back,” Williams said. “So, why take on dollars for Fuentes to come in in the fifth for us? We have [Chris] Sale, who is throwing 99 mph, has a breaking ball that drops off the table and a plus change. Thornton is expected to come back [from elbow inflammation] and, to be honest, we pushed him back for precautionary measures more than anything. That’s how good he is feeling.”
