With Fernando Rodney set to rejoin the roster for the series coming up against the Texas Rangers, a roster spot was needed to get him back in. With Jose Mesa destroying the team at every chance he got, it was time for him to go. Add the two together and you've got a great personnel decision.
It's very rare that a team straight up listens to common sense and its fanbase. How many times have us sports fans seen a organization go against what seems to be the right call and keep on doing exactly what they're doing, no matter what the consequence (examples- Matt Millen and the Lions, Isaiah Thomas and the Knicks)? It's refreshing to see.
So the final line on Joe Fucking Table and his time with the Tigers- 1-1 with a 12.34 ERA in 16 appearances, six walks, nine strikeouts, and at least one million fans that wanted to kill themselves when he entered games.
One thing I will say to compliment Jose Fucking Mesa- he knows why this is happening. His quote from the ESPN.com article-"They gave me a chance and I didn't do my job." Damn straight my friend, damn straight.
This is the prototypical addition by subtraction maneuver. Jose Fucking Mesa Syndrome will be taken away from this bullpen. Will the Bullpen Bengals of last year return? That remains to be seen. But, as my Cleveland Loving Friend put it "You can officially pencil me in as worried."
The only thing about the Jose Fucking Mesa Era in Detroit that I'll regret is that we Tiger fans never got the chance to boo him off the mound. That would have been very cathartic.
What a great day in Tigerville.
