I don't miss Fernando Rodney

[Angelsjunky]

Damn, anyone watch the end of the Mariners-Rangers game? Total implosion by Rodney and the Mariners in almost every way.

Fernando Frieri

[AngelsFaninGA]

The closers on my fantasy team going into this season were Rodney, Frieri, and Parnell. Yeeeaaaahhhh....

[Stradling]

What happened?

[Angelsjunky]

It was just a mess. Mariners up 2-1 in the ninth. After Rodney gets the first two outs, Kevin Kouzmanoff (remember him?) singles. Then Rodney walks Mitch Moreland. Then Donnie Murphy reaches on an error by SS Brad Miller, who underhanded the ball to 2B, pulling the second baseman up off the bag. So now, after two outs with no one on, the Rangers have the bases loaded. Rodney proceeds to throw a wild pitch, scoring a run and tying the ball game. Then Leonys Martin singles and the Rangers win 3-2. All that with two outs. Ugly.

[Stradling]

That's awesome

Sounds like a recap of an Angels except we go in with a three run lead.

I miss him. He has been a great closer the last two years. He still has a 0.00 ERA for this season

....which I'm sure is of great comfort to him tonight.
