Game over??

"We're probably looking at about a year, maybe by the All-Star break next year he'll be back."

Not the words that Dodger fans want to hear about closer Eric Gagne. ESPN reports that Gagne will have season-ending Tommy John surgery this Friday to repair the ulnar collateral ligament in his right arm.





This is more than just a typical injury, as Gagne was perhaps the most feared man coming out of the bullpen with a one-run lead. Before he even set foot on the mound, GnR's "Welcome to the Jungle" blaring through Chavez Ravine, the Dodgers had guaranteed themselves a win. For 84 straight games Eric Gagne only meant one thing: GAME OVER.
