M-A-R-S,
I agree with you. I'm not going to send Izzy packing either. Guys, the problem isn't Izzy. It's LaRussa. Tony keeps relying on Izzy multiple times per week and at his stage in Izzy's career, the Cards can ill afford to do that. I know that Tony and Duncan want to see Izzy achieve career save #300. And so us Cards fans. But not to the extent that it might aggrivate Izzy's bum hip or like MARS said, give Izzy a dead arm.
It's no secret that Izzy doesn't have much left in the tank and for what he does have left, the Cards need to be a lot more conservative than what they have been to this point. Izzy isn't all washed up. He just has a dead arm caused by overworkage and a few weeks of r&r (DL time) followed by a rehab stint in the minors and he will be back to being one of the best closers in the NL.
Patience guys. And keep the faith alive in Izzy and he will return the favor. Just wait and see.
Go Izzy and Go Cards!!!! 68
