I F***ING HATE FERNANDO RODNEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is ZUMAYA done? I thought he would be ready by opening day? No?

Its scary that Rodney could be our closer next year.

HEY RODNEY... YOU F*UCKING SUCK. GO DIE IN A DITCH YOU USELESS PIECE OF SH*T

I HOPE YOU F*CKING BREAK YOUR F*CKING NECK YOU MOTHER F*CKER

HOW DOES IT FEEL TO HAVE EVERYBODY HATE YOU. D-BAG

I'D RATHER HAVE A F*CKING R*TARD BE OUR CLOSER THAN YOU. YOUR WORSE THAN A R*TARD YOU F*CK FACE. OH AND LEARN TO WEAR YOUR HAT RIGHT YOU F*CKING IDIOT.

HAHA YOUR SO F*CKING BAD. HOW IS IT POSSIBLE THAT YOUR PITCHING ABOVE AA.

WHO THE F*CK DELETED MY COMMENTS?

hey maybe dontrelle willis will pitch above a-ball this year

RODNEY SUCKS

I AM THE SAME PERSON AS Tigers/Reds Baseball. I JUST CHANGED MY NAME TO SOMETHING MORE APPROPRIATE

Fernando Rodney as the closer is a really bad idea. And Zumaya is permanently injured; he's never ever coming back.

Think of the offseason the tigers could of had without Sheffield's, Inge's, Willis', and Robertson's ridiculous contracts
That's around $40 million!

I take it up in Detroit Rodney is not a fan favorite.

I think Rodney is blowning Leyland and Dombrowski. How else can he stay in the bigs?
