Day 142

Notes from yesterday:

Anyone else notice David Weathers has 27 saves this season and has no shared the role at all? Talk about a boring closer. By comparison, Jason Isringhausen has saved 25 games. Who paid more for Weathers than Izzy raise your hand.

I was recently told my troika of CJ Wilson, Al Reyes and Joakim Soria were bad closers becuase they are on bad teams. Hopefully, no one else makes this same judgment. Having the job is more important than closing for a good team.

FWIW, Wilson saved his 7th last night, and Reyes notched his 19th. Soria pitched in a non-save situation and allowed three runs.

Er... C.J. Wilson, I assume? Blondilocks Craig doesn't seem to be around anymore.
