Isringhausen not done yet

It is almost certain Jason Isringhausen has thrown his last pitch for the Cardinals. But that is quite different from saying he has thrown his last pitch, period. The franchise's all-time saves leader returned to the team's clubhouse Friday afternoon, three days after telling teammates he was "done" due to a torn flexor muscle near his right elbow. On Tuesday, team medical supervisor Dr. George Paletta verified the diagnosis. Isringhausen spent Wednesday at home pondering whether he should seek surgery and try to rehab his way back to the major leagues or walk away from a big-league career.

As long as he is done for the Cardinals I don't care where he goes. I think that Chicago would be a great place for Izzy to end his career :)

I think it will be hard for him to come back from an injury like this. I really hate to see his career end like this.

Izzy can probably come back next year with a team in need, much like Percival did this season with the Rays. But, who knows how much he has left?

He won't be pitching for the cards; but, he'll pitch next year. He's still a very solid pitcher when he's not injured.

Walk away dude. Dont tarnish that legacy coming back only to pitch like Rick Ankiel.

As a cardinal fan, i hope he is done. His velocity is down his stamina is done and he has nothing else left to prove. He was a decent closer/ starter, now hes just a guy who cant stay healthy.

good bye- izzy
