He remembered where he hid his secret HGH stash
"He's been very, very impressive," Yost said. "I mean really impressive. I mean really, really impressive."
He did a good job yesterday,
but not good enough to be a closer. He only gave up one run yesterday, but he walked two .
The Brewers should keep him where he is and use Torres as the closer, possibly Shouse for lefties. Or they can continue the “closer by committee” thing they have going.
"Get up, get up, get outta' here, GONE!!!"
One so-so appearance
does not make him a closer again. He was successful a number of times, even this year, before losing the job. I need to see 3 or 4 good outings before considering him our closer.
The same article mentioned a visit from his wife, whom he hadn't seen since spring training...
... after he essentially fired himself from the closer’s job. Maybe she reminded him that the wasn’t likely to get another fat contract next year if he wasn’t a closer this year, and that while $10 million sounds like a lot of money, it’s not in Canadian dollars, so it won’t spend as well as it did when the US dollar was stronger earlier in his career… :)
Doug, please fire Ned.
Love,
Everyone.

Mrs. Gagne:
“Yeah, throw that change right down the middle of the plate.”
Also, cheese.

So THAT's why he keeps throwing it up in the zone
Getting it too far down in that scenario can lead to problems.
He's extremely quick and good.
