I just figured I'd give him the nickname now rather than later. So, he blew another save tonight as Ben Johnson crushed a line drive home run out of Petco in the ninth inning. You know, I'm actually not pissed at the blown save anymore. As a matter of fact, the more saves he blows, the better. It shows Sabean how poor both Alou and Benitez are... makes a much better chance that they won't be back next year. It's the losses that I stress over. Blown saves? More baseball. Blown game? Ergh. Let's hear it, Tolbert!

Closers are supposed to be guys who are aggressive, cocky, SOBs who are mentally tough. Blownitez is none of that. Whenever he doesn't get borderline pitches called in his favor, you can see him getting flustered. And when he blows the game you can see that deer in the headlights look in his face. He's the most mentally fragile closer I've ever seen.

heh. Appropriate nickname, but on the bright side there are worse closers employed in MLB than ArmanDoh!
