Good News, Bad News, Sad News

ITEM - The Dodgers traded Matt Grrrrr...a guy very close to taking the Albuquerque train.  Never steady enough to be counted on or used regularly, we have one less trap for our confused manager to land.  This is a good thing!  YAY!

ITEM - In exchange, the Dodgers get another junk reliever, Carlos "I'm throwing this one down the middle of the plate as fast as I can and I bet you can't hit it oh wait you just did" Marmol.  Same problem, different name.  This is a bad thing.  BOOO!

The LA Times reported that Marmol might work out in Cameltoe er...Camelback Ranch or in Albuquerque before joining the team.  He's free to stay at either place by me.  I just wonder why we're paying for the guy.  If this recent strong play has taught us anything, it's that Skip Schumaker is most effective out of the bullpen, and worth the move.

ITEM - Luis Cruz refused to go to Albuquerque.  Free agency it is...never would have expected this at the start of the season, but I don't know what happened to the guy.  A pisser.  There's the possibility he could fool a team into signing him, along with that .127 average.  Wish you luck.

Off to Denver...who's up for a Coors? 

I don't care for Matt Guerrier

Matt Guerrier is garbage, and I never trusted him, and I never will. He's one of those fucking jokers that just cannot be trusted.

Matt Guerrier sucks.

The score after 6 innings was 3-3

And then...

Jesse Crain got one out.

And he gave up 4 earned runs. He walked 3 batters. And gave up 2 hits.

Then Matt Guerrier. He got 4 outs!

He also gave up 2 hits, and one earned run.

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWESOME!

Well done, shitheads!

-----------------------------

Then something happened in the 8th.

Say it with me....

Matt Guerrier.

I'm sorry. I meant to say "Human Waste".

"Life Failer"

"Garbage"

"Matt Guerrier is horseshit"

Craig A. Breslow relieved Matt Guerrier.
Wells singled to center, Hill to third.
Rios popped out to second.
Hill singled to left center.
Scutaro homered to left, Barajas scored.
Bautista popped out to second.
Barajas singled to right.
Matt Guerrier relieved Francisco Liriano.

----------------------------------------

Hey, WOAH I posted too soon.

Let's see that inning in its entirety:

Millar homered to left, Wells, Lind and Rolen scored.
R.A. Dickey relieved Craig A. Breslow.
Rolen walked, Lind to second.
Wells to third on wild pitch.
Lind walked.
Hill scored, Wells to second on wild pitch.
Craig A. Breslow relieved Matt Guerrier.
Wells singled to center, Hill to third.
Rios popped out to second.
Hill singled to left center.
Scutaro homered to left, Barajas scored.
Bautista popped out to second.
Barajas singled to right.
Matt Guerrier relieved Francisco Liriano.

HOLY CHRIST. THE BULLPEN HAS NEVER BEEN THIS BAD, INCLUDING WHEN RON DAVIS WAS THE CLOSER.

Seriously, I can't even comprehend this. The Blue Jays are perfectly good team, but not good enough to beat the Twins' ass like this every night. That is 7 runs (and counting) in the seventh inning.

I don't know the solution. I just know garbage when I see it. And Breslow, Crain, Guerrier and Dickey are ALL FUCKING GARBAGE.

Update: Barajas doubled to center. Dickey still in there.

I would live-blog these games, but it would make me throw up.

Greetings

Hi there.

My name is Matt Guerrier.

And I hate success.

Who in the Twins bullpen is worth less than garbage?

A quick list:

DENNYS REYES IS WORTH LESS THAN GARBAGE

MATT GUERRIER IS WORTH LESS THAN GARBAGE

JESSE CRAIN IS WORTH LESS THAN GARBAGE

The season is gone.
