I’ve updated the poll on the main page. The new poll is about who our closer will be in 2008. With the season in the toilet the way it is, I cannot forsee Eric Gagne being here after the trading deadline, not unless we manage to get ourselves out of this hole (unlikely), or Gagne gets hurt again (a possibility of course). To that, my poll is sort of trading deadline related, I’m asking who do you think our closer will be in 2008? Just hit the main page of my site, and vote please.
If you vote for “someone else”, please leave a comment with this post saying who you think it will be.
I also closed out the last poll which was “What do you think we should do with Mark Teixeira?” Here are the results of that poll:
Trade him in 2007: 50%
Sign him long term: 47.06%
No idea: 2.94%
Let him walk: 0%
Kind of a divided crowed from those results.
I voted for Aki, but at this point, I just haven’t seen enough of Gagne. The Rangers haven’t given him enough save situations to see what he could do.
