both starters really suck today. We'll see who sucks worse and/or who has the better bullpen.

What's with Blackburn lately? He was the Twins' best starter during the 1st half of the season.

I fully expect them to. I keep my expectations low with this club.
Doesn't mean that I can't be pleased with the offensive effort. I mean, Jacobs and Olivo hitting is amazing. Betancourt just took a walk; wow. |
