More than ten teams are showing interest in free-agent closer Jonathan Broxton.

Teams are looking for the right-hander's medical records after his 2011 season was cut short follow elbow surgery.

Broxton had 79 saves with the Dodgers over the last four seasons.

if he's cheap, give him a shot

but not as a 9th or 8th inning guy

Torre killed him

yup

here's an example

June 2010, right when he started to break down.

the infamous yankee game. dodgers up 4 in the 9th, still bring in broxton to work his 4th game in 5 days and a day after pitching 1 and a third innings. torre left in him there to die, 48 f'ing pitches

4th game in 5 days totaled 99 pitches

that's just flat out wrong

im not saying those 4 games killed him, but he seriously wasnt the same after that. and remeber, he was an all-star in 2010 and was flat out dominant up until that point. maybe he was already injured, but who knows
