    BroxTON DFA?!?!

    JB not with the team/relievers for BP today. Roster move speculated (DFA).

    per Goold, twitter.

    "Jonathan Broxton has not joined relievers, team for BP, but exact status/move set to be revealed shortly, official says."

    I'm pissed that I didn't think of BroxTON. Missed opportunities.

    Bite collar applied. It's a small step in the right direction.

    Signing him for 2 years was actually worse than the Pigginton deal.

    Way too long for a course correction.

    Did Broxton have a clean full inning all season?

    That's not rhetorical. That's a serious question.

    1 of his 20 appearances was a clean inning.

    Was he really that effective?

    Best news of the year. I can count on one hand the number of Cards that I have dispised over the years and Broxton heads that list. But hey he was a good clubhouse guy which explains the winning record.

    But he does save a small fortune on catering services. So there's that.

    Not to mention he can make two uniforms out of one of his.
