Turning Japanese 37 Times

In expected (but excellent) news, the Dodgers signed my favorite 37 -year-old Japanese closer today. Yes, rest easy all, Takashi Saito is officially inked for next season. Super Mario even threw $2 million to our 9th inning man regardless of being owed only the league minimum (being a 3rd-year player under team control). Obviously, he could've chosen not to play at all, but after helping to convince Kuroda to sign anything other than Dodger blue was unlikely.

MLBTR reported that our boy has hurled 144 MLB innings with a 1.77 ERA. Needless to say, this mother fucker is diabolical.

A Dodger win always makes me happy...but to see the smile on that Jap's grill after breaking off a sick slide-piece to freeze a lefty and seal the game...well that makes me happier than Purple Stuff watching a Golden Girls marathon alone with a bottle of Crisco.
