    I could deal with one run, but allowing two is just bad.

    We all knew what Jackson was and sooner or later he’d turn back into a pumpkin. We’ll have to overpay but Will Smith and one more arm is needed bad.

    Really can't blame Jackson too much. He's basically been a below league average reliever since he came to the bigs. He is not capable of being a closer. We have put him in a situation to fail, he's a nice 6th inning reliever, nothing more.

    6 blown saves. 6. 10 for 16 ain't good. AA, do something. It's clear we have the tools, but we need a closer. I wonder if one of the best was out there and we just ignored it.

    Why is this guy allowed to continually derail threads like this? Why don’t the mods do something about this kind of message board bullying?

    Am I the only one who sees the irony of claiming someone else has to be right while arguing for several pages?

    Jackson has given up runs in four straight and blown two saves and is about to take a loss I am afraid. He should've had a loss in another but Riley homered changing that game.

    I don't see Neris blowing two straight games.

    Innings eater in low leverage situation: Touki and Ynoa

    Tomlin probably saved in case it is an extra innings game.

    Does anyone think Gausman would make a good closer?

    It's time to remove Jackson from the closer role. Not sure who takes his place but we can keep giving away leads in the 9th

    I doubt he could be worse. My gut tells be he wouldn’t be bad. He’s a two pitch guy who could rev it up a bit extra out of the pen. I’d like a proven closer but he’d be worth a shot.
