I'm just joking.

I know full well what kind of pitcher he is. He hasn't had a start in about twenty days and come and gives us a nice 3H/1ER outing. He has had only one implosion game to my knowledge.

Just having a few beers and cool to see him have a good outing. He is a 26 year old journeyman who will eventually find a place in someones pen.
MLBN had a good breakdown of his struggles with his mechanics today. He is leaning forward and not kicking his leg high enough, basically he is pitching lazy.

Wow pathetic.

Time for the M&M boys to be put out to pasture and replaced with Nick Punto and...whatever his name is Tolbert. Rene. Or Celine. Celine Tolbert.

Random question, when is Young's contract up?

That's a damn good question. Honestly I do not know. However the way he is playing this season, and the fact we played him almost EVERY fucking game, I don't see us trading him anytime soon.

So that gives them the option of moving Ian kinsler to that DH/utility Infield role when profar gets called up. That or leave him at second and have profar at short when andrus becomes a Yankee.

Lambtron, when will you divorce waifu? This is pathetic. 1 hr?

List of prolific sluggers with more homers than Mauer on the season:

Jeff Mathis
Juan Pierre
Cliff Lee
Drew Butera
Millton Bradley

In Mauer's defense he's only gotten 265 AB's on the season thus far. Give him another 250 or so before he gets another.
