Juan Morillo

Ok, this had to get its own post.

Now, the simple fact is that you could pull ANY Twins reliever out and show their stats and it would look like a baby without a diaper, but this one stands above the rest. And that's really saying something, because guys like Jesse Crain don't know how to wipe properly, let alone throw strikes.

In today's baseball game against the Red Sox:

Juan Morillo entered the game in the 7th inning. He threw 17 pitches.

SOMEHOW, HE WALKED THREE BATTERS AND GAVE UP A HIT.

He was pulled with the bases sauced. That means he got zero outs.

Every one of his runners scored. 4 Earned Runs.

17 pitches, 4 earned runs. No outs. You know what that means? Potsy does. It means an ERA of "infinity". It means that if you aggregate out his numbers, and he were to pitch a full nine innings, he would give up runs.



That is all.

Well, if he gives up infinite runs, he wouldn't get out of the first inning . . . ever.

Anyway, did you see Casilla strike out in the first inning? He missed Wakefield's knuckler by about 4 feet. He was . . . fooled. That's it.

Go Twins.
