It can be an ugly thing. It can be a downright decent thing, too.

The Cardinals have wo guys with lots of pride and they are making this team begin a downward spiral. Jason Isringhausen and Tony LaRussa have been in baseball together for many years now. Izzy, as we know, has been atrocious and TLR has announced that Izzy closes games. Ok, then CLOSE the game.

Last night was horrible even though we won. Tony just wants Izzy to get to 300 saves it appears, no matter what happens. Well, that is getting in the way of a pennant race.

I am hoping Izzy decides on his own to pack it in for the rest of the year and Perez or Motte or about anybody becomes a new bullpen guy.

BTW: I want Wainwright in the ‘pen when he returns for the remainder of this season.
