actually that is EXACTLY what we have, except he's not as durable as marmol (betancourt). he's about as good, though. just older.

borowski is a PROVEN CLOSER your mom. idiots like us would not understand.

Great move by Yost in today's game.

Brings in Linebrink in the 7th in a tie game, no double switch, with Linebrink due up 2nd in the bottom half. Linebrink gets out of the 7th, still a tie game.

Bottom 7. Hardy homers to lead off. Brewers up 1 with no outs. Yost has Linebrink bat.

Either you double switch when bringing him in, or you have him pitch 2/3 of an innning and pinch hit, or use him to sacrifice if Hardy gets on base. This sequence of events is simply lighting runs on fire.
