What an awesome guy. It sucks to see Pudge go, but Farnsy has had a place in my heart since he defended Carlos against KC on that day. This on top of the fact that he's an intimidating reliver with a mid 90s fastball and electric breaking stuff. Let's see if he puts up numbers like during his last stint in Detroit. Go Tigers!

At least he’ll stand up for his team and take accountability for his mistakes. And it isn’t like there is a single member of the bullpen who hasn’t blown a game. coughTodd Jonescough

I stand by it. Everyone in the bullpen has blown games. Rodney’s the one who hit two batters and walked a run in.

Really? So Farns is the one who has blown 4 out of 5 saves? Or the one who hit two batters and walked in the winning run yesterday?

I didn’t realize I made the same point as I did above, but regardless. Don’t pin yesterday on him.

I'm OK with Farns' pitching

But I’m rather ticked that he decided to drive down to Florida with his family, whereas Pudge reported straight to the Yankees and played the next day. That doesn’t say player who wants to come to his new team, to me.

as if you do. answer this, was he crying or not when he was saying he didnt want to leave the yanks? i dont think we really want him on our team if he is going to continue to feed meatballs to opposing batters. come on now you cant even compare the one batter that rodney hit to giving up 4 runs. and yes it was one batter the other was a strke.
