Managers feel the need to have to use 1 closer to START the 9th.
Ex Willy and the Muts yesterday. KOO made the Reds look SILLY in the 8th. Why not let him at least face Kearns to start the 9th and see what happens. Looper was a gas can.

Looper should never have challenged Dunn like that. Doesn't Dunn look like a giant Wil Ferrel???

Try being an Indians fan for the season, then come back and talk to me about middle relief.

Batista might end up being a decent closer for the Jays, 2 for 2 so far

I agree with Whale. I was pissed off when they brought in Looper after Koo was making them look silly in the 8th. Koo was picking up right where Pedro left off. Mowing them down.

Against the worst offense in baseball remember.

That would be the KC Royals, imo.

Bet the Mets would trade Looper for Batista right now

Thats INSANE!! Looper was 29 of 34 last year w/ a 2.70 era vs. 5 saves and a 4.80


I know he had a terrible outing yesterday, but he is still a very good closer.
