A daily - or every-other-day - account of all there is in my head that's dying to get out, via my fingers.

End the Mike Remlinger Era NOW
He might be the worst reliever in the game right now.
I'd rather see Rich Garces eating a gross of Krispy Kremes on the hill than that washed-up old man try to throw strikes.
Thanks for the comment, Paul. I completely agree with you, last night was the chance for him to earn his #37 - the former number of the El Paso Buzzsaw, Frank Castillo. But if you can't hold a seven-run lead in a pitcher's ballpark against the offensive juggernaut that is the Dee-troit Tigers, then you need to be optioned to Wal-Mart. In a positive note, though, Remlinger lowered his ERA from a mathematical impossibility to 54.00. So congrats to all involved!
Agreed.
ReplyDeleteI was fine with putting him in last night, to see if his outing last Tuesday was a fluke. But it apparently wasn't.
