Resurrection From The Grave.........

Last night at Wrigley Field was the resurrection from the grave of the "Wild
Thing", Carlos Marmol.ย  Yes he's back!!!!!!!ย  This was just not a one night
stand.ย  This has been happening all season long.ย  Do you want proof?
Ok, here are some stats:
2008 Season
2.68 ERAย ย  114 KOย  in 87.1 inngsย ย  41 Walks
2009 Season
3.57 ERAย ย ย  64 KO in 53 inngsย ย  49 Walksย ย ย ย ย 
In addition to the above is the distinction of leading all pitchers in the National
League in hit batters with 11! All of last year he had a total for the season ofย 
10.ย  Yes, the "Wild Thing" has come back from the grave to haunt us andย 
add more years to our lives.
What I don't understand is why they didn't send Carlos down to the minorsย 
to figure out what he was doing wrong and get himself straightened out.ย  Ifย 
you have a weak heart, WARNING!!!! Do not watch the Cubs if Carlos comes
in to pitch the 8th inning.
This is not for the faint of heart....and please take your blood pressure pills!
