Embree gives it up

Okay, who is this man, and what has he done to Alan Embree? Fookin' 3-run homer to Garret Anderson. Is Mike Myers so much of a lefty specialist that he can't pitch twice in a row?

Fill in the blanks: "Alan Embree gives it up faster than..."

... a high school prom date? (Hey, it's 4 in the morning over here. I can't be funny at 4am.)


Embree is so done at this point it's not even debateable. His velocity has been down for two years, and given that that's hi only weapon, he's basically useless at this point. I'd rather just never see him in a ballgame unless the Sox are up by 6 or 7.


Fox just put up the stat: in his last 6 appearances, he has an ERA of over 17. He's great.


And now, clearly, Myers was available. I don't necessarily blame Tito for putting Embree in, but I think he Grady Littled by not pulling him in clear signs of trouble.


Alan Embree gives it up faster than A-Rod in a leather-daddy bar.

I just watched the Tigers lose by a touchdown, you'll have to excuse me if I'm a bit disgruntled.
