    Ready for a classic Marmol meltdown?

    Marmol enters the ninth, up 3-0.
    Lead off homer.
    3-1

    Walks the next batter.

    Stay tuned..............

    As Drudge would say, developing..............

    Garza was lights out, like Verlander with Valverde, if I am goat face Garza, I am kicking the life out of Marmol's nut sack right now in the clubhouse.

    With the exception of 4 or 5, I wouldn't pay any closer 7 figures.
    And no, I had no action on this game, just Buck as my fantasy catcher today.

    How does Garza not attack Marmol in the clubhouse after the game?

    How is Marmol not banished to AA ball yet?

    Only competition would be place kickers in football, but yeah.
    You get paid a gazillion dollars to get three outs, and three outs only with a three run lead............

    Only closer worth the money is Mo, and he's retiring.

    If Jason Grilli and Jim Johnson can lead the league in saves, that's all that needs to be said.

    So given that, how bad is Marmol and these other bums who can't get outs and/or throw strikes?

    The most entertaining thing about watching Marmol pitch is that he himself literally has 0 clue where the pitch that just left his hand is going to end up.

    Guy might as well shut his eyes when he throws.

    It's hilarious watching the catcher set up and then move wherever the ball goes. It's like he's throwing a damn knuckleball. NO ONE knows where it's going to end up.

    I've said it several times before and I'll say it again: How the fukk is this guy still in MLB? I'm serious. Over the past 3 years nobody has come close to blowing as many games as he has. Why is this guy still being paid money to lose games? I don't get it.

    He isn't. Gregg is their closer and I'm assuming he was unavailable today.

    Still, I'd rather pitch Rizzo than Marmol in the 9th at this point.

    Hell, I'd rather wake Rod Beck up with smelling salts and prop him up on the mound than use Marmol to actually close/decide a game.

    or have him advocate repeatedly on how the Washington Nationals were his pick this year to make the World Series, even though it has no relation to the topic on hand.... The guy's a genius, clearly.

    "marmol" is a latin derivation meaning "to neuter" or "to feminize"

    she did that today

    Everytime I contemplate how I am currently employed, I think of Marmol.

    Calling this guy a gas can is too kind.

    Kick Rocks, Marmol!!!
