He gave up two hits last night (and that ball hit off Descalso's chest was a ****ing rocket), then hung almost every pitch to Helton before lucking out with the final fastball, which wasn't that high or that hard.
He comes in tonight and serves up a gopher ball to blow the save.
Here is his September:

I'm ****ing tired of watching this idiot come in and hang changeups. He needs to be moved down the order, and the 9th needs to be given to Siegrist.
Mujica is going to cost the team the division and/or a playoff series.

I'm not against a shorter leash, but we are basically the Nats without him stepping up early in the year. He earned a little slack.
I love Siegrist and was pimping him long before the average Card fan knew he even existed. I would be more inclined to give him some closing opportunities than Rosenthal. He rarely farts around, and throws strikes, but although he has been up for awhile now, we are still talking about limited exposure for the most part.
It wouldn't piss me off if they gave others a chance to close, I'm just not sure yet that is best for all concerned.
