With Z and Marmol pretty much unavailable, Marshall was the closer. With Russell already used, Grabow was the only other lefty for Howard/Utley/Rollins/Ibanez, or it could have been Stevens or Berg. As awful as he's been, Grabow was the guy to use.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Bringing him in was one thing, but he clearly didn't have it. He was 3-0 on seemingly every batter. He should have been yanked after 3 batters or so. That was my main complaint. We had no one warming up in the pen either.
