He may be getting better as he got a win last night but when John HALAMA came out in relief a few years back he was a HUGE gascan pitcher...he had lost his stuff at that time, IMO and I watched him give up huge innings...who is your recent time gascan pitcher


thanks

ALFONSECA, Billy Koch (white sox days), and Mike Timlin to name a few.... these guys bring fear to me when i have the team they are pitching for.

Just thought of a great one...


MEL ROJAS when he was with the Cubs was as bad a closer as I have ever seen, the guy was a blown save waiting to happen every time he came in.

The Mariners' bullpen of the mid-90's. Mike Jackson (who pitched like the pop singer), Bobby Ayala, Norm Charlton, et al. Their fires are STILL raging.

Who doesn't enjoy a good blown save, I'm talking coming in with a 3 run 9th inning lead and the first three guys get on type of blown save.


Something about watching a guy flame out in that spot that I like, assuming I don't have a bet on the team in the lead.:103631605

No specific pitchers but last year it seemed like every night a team in the AL central(I think that is the name)CLev,KC,Chws, Minn, would blow a 3 run lead late.
