Congrats to Jason Isringhausen..... |
|
Earned his 300th career Save last night. Only took him 16 years.
The Mets now have three current/former players who have earned their 300th career save as a Met - Izzy, Billy Wagner, and John Franco.

1. I saw Izzy in a Mets shirt a few weeks ago and was confused |
|
Because I remember him starting with the Mets back in the 90's. It's pretty amazing that he made his way back. Good for him.

3. And as a reward, they're transitioning to Bobby Parnell. |
|
At this point in Izzy's career and the Mets season, though, that's probably the right move.

4. Yeah, allowing Izzy to close for the past few weeks... |
|
was more of a favor from Terry Collins, because Terry wanted to let Izzy get to the 300 save milestone. I think Parnell was the intended closer all along after they Mets gave away K-Rod.
