That we don't really have a closer? That we should've re-signed Soria? That we need to find someone to close who's not on the roster -- The Proven Closer?
Or are you just once again straining your rotator cuff patting yourself on the back for being the only sane person on ChiefsPlanet who A) never "freaks out" and B) is always right?

Well that's kind of harsh. I am certainly not always right. Holland's struggled but he appeared to have pulled it together last night, blew away two guys before giving up the big hit. Then today he was still one out away. It wasn't like he was Ankiel'ing it up out there. His stuff was pretty good. It's almost like he needs to relax a bit out there... but maybe his confidence is rattled and won't ever recover. I don't think that's unfair.
