No the facts!!! He got hurt in 2012 and got paid 9 million for the year and only 1.5 innings of work. Then SF did not pick up his option for another 9 mil. SF then allowed him to rehab with them while they tried to work out a new deal. But when he didn’t get what he wanted he threw a fit and cried all the way to LA for less money for one month of work. he was loved in the Bay Area!! But Brian Wilson is all about greed.

I’m surprised the Angels didn’t make a harder push to sign him. BW wanted to be on the West Coast and the Angels are pressed for starting and relief pitching. They could have sealed the 9th with the signing with Frieri pitching more comfortably in the 8th inning role.

He really needs to shave that beard. It’s nasty. I appreciate a nice beard but his is gross

but their 9th inning guy is getting paid like an 8th inning guy, not to mention less than Brandon League !

It’s too much for ANY reliever. Closers aren’t hard to find or develop for much less if you have a good development system and coaches.

I’m not sure what games you were watching, then. When he first got back he was throwing 90-91, yes, and his velocity gradually got up to 92-93 by the end of the regular season, and then up a notch in the postseason. I’m sure he was just saving his bullets for the postseason. And as I said, he doesn’t even need to throw 96 to get guys out. Low-90’s is more than fine. Jansen often barely throws over 90 if it’s a back-to-back appearance, for example.

I would not get rid of Gardner. The leadoff of Ellsbury and Gardner is a nice touch. I would get rid of Ichiro, Wells, and Romine.
