Another Brewers Jackass

The previous post I wrote about the selfish Prince Fielder. Another Brewer who has me incensed is relief pitcher Frankie Rodriguez.
Rodriguez, who is lucky he isn't in jail after beating up his elderly father-in-law last year, was acquired by Milwaukee in July from the Mets.
While I would never have a low life creep playing for me, from a baseball standpoint it was a good move to bolster the bullpen.
The Brewers closer is John Axford who is having a terrific year with an ERA slightly over 2 and with 43 saves. Rodriguez has pitched very well as a set-up man.
Perfect situation for the Brewers right? Well, yes but not if you ask Rodriguez. He's pissed off that he's not the closer. What? Excuse me? The team is winning, Axford is doing the job and Rodriguez is pulling the "I'm not the closer" act? Way to be a team player K-Rod.
What in the world is he thinking? Answer...he's not. Put together, I don't know if Rodriguez and Fielder have a full brain. Selfish stupid idiots.
The team is in contention for a championship. Put your egos selfishness aside for at least a couple of weeks and help the team. Plus, you would think that Rodriguez would try to improve his image after beating up an old guy last year.
