Michael Cuddyer is... well he's really just sucking ass right now.

I wish there was a better way to say that. But he faced off against Craig Breslow tonight and hit into a double play to end the 8th.

Craig Breslow is a guy who was RELEASED BY THE MINNESOTA TWINS.

When the Minnesota Twins release a reliever, they are sending a message. That message is "Hey Craig. You must be the worst reliever in the entire universe. Because the 3rd worst reliever in the entire universe is Jesse Crain. And the second worst reliever in the entire universe is Matt Guerrier. And we're sticking with them. So, as such, you must simply be the worst piece of garbage ever. Ever."

And that's the guy who gets Cuddy to bounce into the DP. Greeeeeeeeeeeeat.

I think we give this one a FUBB, because the loss goes to Ayala. And that "loss" going to Ayala doesn't just mean this game. It means in his life.

FUBB

I'd like to thank Mr. Sean Henn, he of the "couldn't quite hack it out of the New York Yankee bullpen, which means he couldn't hack it bagging groceries at Red Owl" ilk, for giving up the game winning hit to Ken Griffey Jr. tonight. Because Ken Griffey Jr. is hitting .221 this season, and stopped being a power threat in 2001.

Mark my words

The Twins take a 3-2 lead going into the 7th inning.

The new pitcher is Sean "I couldn't hack it in New York's bullpen, so hey!" Henn.

The Rays will score more than 2 runs this game. MANY more.

The Cards Don't Even Matter, I'll Play It Blind

The Twins lead the Tigers 7-5. It is in the top of the 7th inning. Perkins gave up 5 runs and was relieved by Luis Ayala.

We're into the bullpen, in the 7th. Ayala is still in there.

OH MY GOD WHY CAN'T I LIVE BET THIS GAME????????

I'm sure Jesse Crain is warming up right now.

This is a guaranteed loss.

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

UPDATE: 4 pitch walk to Polanco to open the inning. NICE JOB DUMB FUCK!!!!


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

2nd UPDATE: HA HA HA CLETE THOMAS DOUBLED OH MY GOD AYALA IS SO TERRIBLE AND I WOULD'VE PUT MY LIFE ON THIS EXACT SCENARIO HAPPENING.

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

Fuck it, I'm making this a live blog. Matt Guerrier has entered the game. In the 7th inning. Runners on 2nd and 3rd, no outs. The pain is going to be severe.

AND THERE'S A BOMB BY CABRERA. 3 RUN JACK. I CAN'T

I WON'T

I CAN'T EVEN SAY ANYTHING

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

Jeff Larish hits a home run... we're at one out in the 7th inning and 4 runs are in so far.

There is absolutely nothing as frustrating in all of sports as cheering for a team with a shitty bullpen. Not "shaky". "SHITTY". They blow more games than they save. It is enough to make you break things. Seriously, I feel like breaking my monitor. What else can I do? Mail Bill Smith a letter telling him to get off his ass and DO HIS FUCKING JOB AND FIRE THE BULLPEN BECAUSE A LOSER IS A LOSER.

JESSE CRAIN IS GARBAGE

Holy fucking Moses, this bullpen could fuck up a cup of Maxwell House.

Jose Mijares walks Jose Lopez, then gives up a bomb to The Man Formerly Known As Ken Griffey.

HERE COMES JESSE CRAIN!!! 2 runs in, and we're still going.

I cannot quantify how frustrating it is to see Blackburn throw 7 innings of shutout ball, only to see these fucking jokers come in and just spill the beans all over the field.
