Hands down the worst closer in baseball. Just blew another lead today. His ERA is 5.40:fckmad:

How this guy still has a job blows my mind. Much less a closer, but is he even a major league reliever in any spot anymore?

Him and CJ Wilson are currently battling to see who the worst closer in the game is. Right now I'd say edge Jones.

I'm still pissed off about it. I was down to my last 2 plays and lost on STL. Had a WNBA winner tied into Detroit too, so that hurt even more. Would've had a good amount if they pulled it out.

Chain smoking, senile Leyland had NO business leaving Dolsi in the 11th. Where was Zumaya (pussy can't pitch 2 days in a row?), Miner, Lopez??

Leyland has fucked me all year, like Saturday with Rodney pitching 2 innings when Zumaya hadn't pitched in a few days.

I knew once they didn't score off of Nathan they were done.

Absolute shitty loss. Wiped out and not going to get over it for a while.

of course that error by Joyce didn't help. probably been 1st and 3rd with 0 outs. Might have changed the whole game. It was 99% going to be tied after the error. No way does Jones get K's. Still steaming over it. Joyce couldn't get the bunt down either in the bottom half. And Cabrera was pinch ran for - that didn't help in the 11th when Rayburn (sucks) had to hit.

Jones is 16 out of 18 in save conversions.

Miner is in Toledo, so it would have been hard to get him ready to go in the 11th yesterday.

Love guys who are claiming he is losing them money

He has blown 2 saves this year and one of them they won the game anyway

so he has lost exactly ONE game for you!

guys has the worse stats for a closer but is effective nonetheless

That doesn't tell the story about him. Every time this guy comes in you get worried if you have money on them. He had a lot of saves the past two seasons as well if I remember correctly and he was terrible then too. He will usually come in with a 2 or 3 run lead and when he leaves it will be a 1 run game with runners stranded in scoring position, but he still picks up the save. So yes he gets the save most of the times, but he is far from effective and should not be closing games.

And how many games did he blow last year? Learned sometime ago to stay away from him...so yes he has lost me money, and no I try and stay away from giving him chances to do it again
