I would be okay if they brought him in

in a trouble spot to get out of an inning. None of the “let him pitch until he gets into trouble” mess like we saw tonight. Not that he was ever really in trouble, but he certainly threw a lot of pitches when we have a fully rested pen.

5th inning against the Tigers

by gossamer on Aug 25, 2009 9:29 PM CDT up reply actions  

title
On Saturday, [Joe] Torre got closer Jonathan Broxton heating up in the seventh inning instead of his normal routine in the eighth when the Dodgers were hanging onto a 2-0 lead over the Chicago Cubs. Everybody knows Broxton has the ninth and newly acquired George Sherrill has the eighth. Except Saturday. The roles were switched and Sherril was the one shaking hands with catcher Brad Ausmus after the final out was recorded, not Broxton.

Bill Plaschke of the Los Angeles Times wrote a column in Sunday’s paper talking about this "role reversal" in the bullpen and how it could possibly create a rift between Torre and Broxton, the big guy who has been handed the ball to close games the entire year.

-snip-

But you’re not going to hear excuses from Broxton, and you’re not going to hear Torre admit that he has lost faith in Broxton, even if that seems to be the case.

“We’re not as concerned about who gets the stat as much as the only stat that is important is that ‘W’ on the left-hand side," Torre said. Which brings us to the situation we saw Saturday with Sherrill, the former closer in Baltimore, getting the save. Both players, Sherrill and Broxton, said all the right things after the game, speaking of the team and the pennant race and "all that really matters is that the team won," but we know there are more feelings than that. But Torre said he doesn’t expect there to be any ill feelings, and here is the money quote that leads to the larger point:

“If somebody gets offended by pitching to the 3-4-5 hitters in the eighth inning, they’re not the person I think they are.”

We don’t need to ring Torre’s house phone to ask him if he was talking about Broxton on that one. That was Torre’s unofficial message to Broxton that it’s about the club, not what inning you’re pitching.

While this may not be true, it is possible that Torre knows exactly what he is doing in this situation, and it’s not all about giving the ninth inning to Sherril and taking the pressure of Broxton. The fact that Torre alluded to the importance of pitching to the middle of the order in the eighth inning in a two run game says something.

“After the game, Joe came up to me and said it was an eighth inning save, and I believe him," Broxton said.

Scout: He was a first-round pick right? Got a huge bonus?
KG: Oh yeah.
Scout: Well, he spent a lot of it on milkshakes.

There is, in fact, a manly and lawful passion for equality which excites men to wish all to be powerful and honored. This passion tends to elevate the humble to the rank of the great; but there exists also in the human heart a depraved taste for equality, which impels the weak to attempt to lower the powerful to their own level, and reduces men to prefer equality in slavery to inequality with freedom.
