Game 31--Twins vs. Blue Jays

[JB_Iowa]

WE should all be drinking. But maybe y'all are.

Why do we have komstsu and why do we play him every day?

Because Gardy must always have his cute little no talent all hustle guy in the lineup: hocking, punto, redmond, butera, carroll, clete, komatsu, on, on, on, on. What a waste of a roster spot!

Repko, Harris, Tolber, Ford,...

Well, that was fun.

[mike wants wins]

Awful team, terrible upper levels in the farm system, a GM that doesn't believe in big time free agents, a team that cut it's payroll in year 3 of a stadium (with, I think I've read, teh 5th highest ticket prices, really?), 25% of your money in one player.....the future does not look so bright.

8-23. The Twins are now 4 games behind last year's 99-loss pace after 31 games.

Considering the size of the payroll, this might just be the worst professional baseball team ever assembled.

Watching uglyball like this requires drinking.

I need morphine at this point.

The Twins record would be substantially different with better starting pitching, but that starting pitching has to average out at some point. That is hopeful, I know.

Again this team is hampered by the immensely stupid contract handed out to Nick Blackburn. Like Nishioka, it is going to be time soon to cut the losses and try someone else. Marquis is better than Blackburn, but he is next.

[Top Gun]

Bye, bye Gardy!

Incredibly, the dropped pop up 10 feet in front of home plate was only #9 on ESPN's Top Ten Not Hot list.
