Some closers hould just be put out to rot.....

Joe Borowski.....to name one. Seriously, there are about 4-5 guys in this league that have no business closing games anymore & he is one. A walk off grand slam after your team scores 3 to take a 2 run lead in the top of the 9th. All you gotta do is toss the ball over the dish and you walk two guys before giving up a slam!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There are without a doubt some young flame throwers who can come in and close out these games instead of thes old ass fat sons of a bitches.

Dont get me wrong some of thes go my way some dont......all Im saying is that these managers need to grow a pair and do whats best for their team to win. Old fat guys as closers are not the answer. Hell, old guys in general.

I just saw highlites on Sc.......looked like he threw a hanging curve that sat over the plate like a meatball!!!! Unreal.

couldn't agree more. that fat fuck borowski should be gutted after that bullshit. someone should slit his fat belly right on the pitcher's mound and let him rot.

He had Gary Matthews 1-2 and walked him on a 3-2 slider in the dirt...a slider, on 3-2 with Vlad on deck...really? Vlad hits a line drive on the first pitch. He then walks Garrett Anderson on 4 pitches and concludes his night with a hanging slider, right down the middle, to Torri Hunter.

Closers have to be allowed to fail sometimes. Failing is a big part of baseball from the 1st inning on.

Agreed, but 4-5 with a 5.07 ERA last season and a skyrocketing ERA this year is more than sometimes. Christ he is 36 years old with piss poor numbers. Like I said find some 25 year old flame thrower to do the job.....cant do much worse.

Nathan & Ryan are both solid.... and K-Rod is far from automatic

He's horrible, but you knew that before the game started.

Also, as a veteran, thes Walks are totally inexcusable. If guys hit you and beat you sometimes, then fine. But to walk two guys after 1 out with a 2-run lead is unexcusable IMO.

1st guy got rake'd tonight...

I would add Jenks to this list...the big guy has been terrific so far this year...and has 81 saves over the last couple seasons.

I still feel pretty safe with my money on the line and Rivera on the bump.

weazel079 · Apr 8, 2008

Saito is the the most underrated closer in the league that many have not heard about.

jammanxc · Apr 8, 2008

best closer i have seen is Kelvim Escobar before he was put in the starting rotation... love his sunglasses

Some closers hould just be put out to rot.....
