I think he will have more then 17 appearances (64 last year) currently 47. You ever consider the times he gets up in the pen and the travel time this year with the All Star game, and the fact he is throwing 88-91 mph FB shows a tired arm.
But we are talking about a guy that has logged inning, and is not getting younger. Not saying he is the old man just know that he was a guy in the minors that was a starter, but had arm problems (elbow). One reason they made him a closer, and the fact he had no third pitch. Not such the case with the change now being a pitch he features from time to time.
I have a buddy that worked out of the pen for years that got dry humped (warmed up didn’t go in the game) 78 times before the all star break. He decided to stop counting because of the insanity. As he said to me he use to think that it was just normal to hurt.
Franky's only injury issues in the bigs have been ankle-related.
As mentioned, because of the way things have worked this year, Franky’s become a ninth inning only guy. He’s 26 and apparently does a ton of work throwing off flat surfaces etc. to make sure he stays healthy.
I hear you on the dry-humping thing, but Mike doesn’t really do stuff like that.
close it out..........

More Runs
Frankie needs some days off I think….....He will be shot by the time playoff roll around.breaking ball is solid tonight…....
Angel Aviator - July 22, 2008
???
He’s on pace for 70 innings… same as always…
Zu Long - July 22, 2008
What?
I think he will have more then 17 appearances (64 last year) currently 47. You ever consider the times he gets up in the pen and the travel time this year with the All Star game, and the fact he is throwing 88-91 mph FB shows a tired arm.
Angel Aviator - July 22, 2008
67 innings last year
On pace for 72. He’s been as high as 84 in a season.
Zu Long - July 22, 2008
I know
But we are talking about a guy that has logged inning, and is not getting younger. Not saying he is the old man just know that he was a guy in the minors that was a starter, but had arm problems (elbow). One reason they made him a closer, and the fact he had no third pitch. Not such the case with the change now being a pitch he features from time to time.
I have a buddy that worked out of the pen for years that got dry humped (warmed up didn’t go in the game) 78 times before the all star break. He decided to stop counting because of the insanity. As he said to me he use to think that it was just normal to hurt.

I hear you on the dry-humping thing, but Mike doesn’t really do stuff like that.
Zu Long - July 22, 2008
They were saying earlier that Mike won't get frankie up before the 9th
strict rule
melvintoast - July 22, 2008
Not actually working more than he usually does.
Just every time he’s in is a save op.
TheOptimist - July 22, 2008
that's right, Rory
“Frankie has never been better”
yeswecan - July 22, 2008
I feel like Frankie's control is off generally,
...or he expects hitters to swing at his breaking pitches way too often.
cardinalwraith - July 22, 2008
Come on K-Rod
infant - July 22, 2008
about time for grady's ladies to flash him .. give krod an assist
BigBangRobbDawgg - July 22, 2008
