He's never been able to consistently throw strikes, and with a walk rate that has varied between sub-par and absolutely abysmal, it was only a matter of time before he imploded like this.

You can have Davis for Reyes and Piscotty.

Forget putting Rosenthal in the 7th or 8th. With those numbers he doesn't even belong in the majors, this is MM showing his favoritism again.

Six years of Reyes and five of Piscotty is not worth 1.5 of Davis and Paulo Orlando

He is obviously broken and needs to get his act together. How many games do we allow him to blow?

WTF, you trade a potential 20 game winner or and Cy Young award winner and a .300/15/85 OF for 1.5 years of Davis/Orlando? That would be a fireable offense. We won 2 WS in the last 10 years, 5 straight years in the playoffs. Why should we mortgage our future? We are not desperate. Take this shit year and start again next year. Bader looks like the real deal. Weaver and Reyes look like they are ready to start in 2017. The cover is not bare. Besides Reyes in the bullpen in Sept. the help isnt on the way this year.

Officially announced................Rosenthal out as closer. No "closer" desiginated as of yet.
I'm surprised they pulled the trigger. Maybe they learned something from the Izzy, Franklin etc fiasco's?

I get the bitching about slow to remove him and in that group. Though don't think Matheny is doing anything different than typical managers in removing an established closer.

Reminds me of a QB change. If the guy isn't getting it done, give someone else a chance seems like a simple concept for everyone to understand.
