July 3, 200620 yr i mwas just going to write about that yeah he is and i knew the reds would come back damn it we need them to lose
July 3, 200620 yr just blew a 6-4 lead in the 9th vs the Reds and now its 7-6 Reds, still batting Dunn and Griffey are clutch!
July 3, 200620 yr Author bottom 9, Brewers trying to get him off the hook Weeks-Hall-Jenkins due up Bill Hall just missed a walkoff 1st and 3rd, no outs for Jenkins 7-7 on the single by Jenkins 1st and 2nd, no outs for Carlos Lee
July 3, 200620 yr :banghead :banghead :banghead 2 bloopers beat us. Ouch.. I left the house after Turnblow (err Turnbow) blew his save and just said.. Well the Reds won so that's that.. guess I was wronog :blink:
July 3, 200620 yr one blown save should mean a closer's overrated...how has he been doing the rest of this year?
July 4, 200620 yr one blown save should mean a closer's overrated...how has he been doing the rest of this year? Yes but sometimes closers get credit for saves and actually come in and give up runs. I agree that he is overrated and overpaid.
July 6, 200620 yr Closer's don't have a very long shelf life, not shocking he's falling apart though it's sooner than expected. Too bad, I liked him.
July 6, 200620 yr he just gave up a solo shot to Dunn in the 10th to give the Reds the lead. Oh you have to be sh*tting me. Jenkins homers. tie game.
July 20, 200620 yr How the hell did he make the All-Star squad? Because they chose him over Wagner and Isringhausen (who has had a decent year just blown a lot of saves)..
July 20, 200620 yr i went to a couple brewers spring training games and was shocked by how underwhelming he was - a couple of the fastballs he lest loose really popped and were fun to watch - but the movement generally wasn't there and his velocity seemed to be hittable more often than not- he actually reminded me a lot of looper
July 22, 200620 yr hes about to blow another save and he couldnt throw a strike for his life u guys have to see this guy and he was actually an all star here we go and the reds come back again and the marlins dont gain anything
July 22, 200620 yr so overrated that starters can't close???? That's why there are closers are in the league...certain people don't have the mental makeup to go one inning with the game on the line.
July 22, 200620 yr Why do so many teams have such trouble finding that lockdown guy in the 9th then? I'd say only about a 3rd of the league is completely satisfied with their closer.
July 22, 200620 yr Closers are expected to get out of any situation that their starters or middle relievers get them in to....Closers are the ones who save the starter when he loads the bases and the cleanup hitter is up....Closers like Mariano Rivera force you to shorten the game because they have the mental edge.
