From the Nobody Predicted This Department: I don't know if this illustrates how great Francisco Rodriguez is doing or how badly the Seattle Mariners are playing - or both, or neither - but Halos Heaven poster stuck in Romania pointed out:
Frankie has more saves than the mariners have wins!!! 20-18...

Twist and shout!
Congrats, Mariner fans. You deserve it.

but i thought JJ was the best closer in baseball

Frankie Saves the day!
And the Angels have the best record of wins on the road with 15 wins and 10 losses in all of baseball.

Twisting the knife on who?
Hapless Mariners fans following a sinking ship of a team or Angels fans who already see Frankie as the former closer of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim and haven’t liked him in some time?

oh yeah i forgot
Angel fans can be lumped into one group and one group only and that group is always defined by a negative characteristic.
Give me a fat f’n break, pal.

Angel fans who don't like Frankie....
... should look up the phrase “8-7 pitcher.”
mattwelch - May 24, 2008
are u talking about...
the term used to describe nolan ryans last season in anaheim, where the gm said he could replace him with two 8-7 pitchers
halofan4life - May 24, 2008
Yes, that is what I am talking about
Frankie, like Nolan Ryan, pitches at a talent level that cannot be replaced.

I get that you feel K-Rod is underrated man.
I do too. But being bitter and snotty on the few occasions when K-Rod DOES get some props doesn’t help, and isn’t cool.

Not to mention Frankie is on pace for 60+ saves
Los Angeles de Anaheim - May 24, 2008
Looks like
The bookends of Bedard and JJ are doing a great job thus far.

Making his case
KRod is certainly making his case for the money he has already claimed he deserved. Personally, I think we give him what it takes to keep him here. I am not sold on our farm (despite it being good) being ready to replace him. Pay the money.
