No, Miller, the Dodgers ain't wondering what happened tonite. You fat FOOL. We are used to having this pig get owned. Just a matter of nobody doing anything to change it. How bad do you want a pressure closer? Not bad enough yet. I don't know how much pain it's gunna take. There were closers on the market. Detroit wanted it more. IT'S SIMPLY A POORLY RUN CLUB. I think Torre has made up his mind now (about whether to keep managing them.) I think that's a "no." He's got to be tired of this pig embarassing the club. He should get out. Brox is the cancer that keeps on killing.

Sh1t!!! Just trade the fat basterd. I'm sure the 29 other team have no problem with that.....he would close for 27 of them right away, and wait for Mariano to retire and take the spot the Yanks.

I'll give you Lidge and Baez for Broxton.. though I do understand your pain. He's a top closer, who maybe doesnt like the spotlight?

Of course people that are fans of other teams are gunna say Brox is great. They know, if they ever really need to win a pressure game, they can get it off him. Any objective person would have to note that the guy is useless in big games. The only exception is during the divisional series (when the Dodgers were big underdogs.)

He's still better than the Phillies closer, even in clutch situations.

Who in the heck is better in pressure situations other than Rivera?

One of the most remarkable things that Mo Rivera has accomplished was to be managed by Joe Torre for all those years and get by with only a few minor injuries. Broxton pitched on Wednesday, thursday, was warming up on Friday but wasnt needed, pitched again on Saturday and once again on Sunday.

Sure it was Broxton that was giving up the hits but he was overworked that week and should nopt have been left out there to throw almost 50 pitches. The managers job is to put the right people in the right situation. Winning an interleague game at this point in the season shouldnt be so important that you risk blowing out your closers arm and secondarily cause him and the other pitchers in the bullpen to lose confidence. Coming into the inning it wasn't even a save situation. And Scuds please tell me what other closer is/was available again?

the guy is good , very good chuck , but he ain't rivera and no one else is

joe ain't a miracle worker , when you have the top gun in the 9th inning coming in for you , you are going to look like a genius on the bench

Same guy I requested last Winter. 6.8 mil this year. Has 18 saves, and 1 blwn sv. How long we gunna blame this fkn horndog wife for not spending money on good changes? They don't address their problems. It's retardation (the act or result of delaying.)
