It's unbelievable -- he pours a fastball by Morneau
and then Cuddyer can’t drive the first pitch fastball right over the plate. So he speeds up Cuddyer’s bat with a slow curve. I thought he idolized Rivera — when was the last time you saw Rivera lop in a slow curve?

good point
They should let him play the season out unless he hits like .100
If/ When Giambi comes back he can split time at DH with Cust or Pinch hit.
THAT BALL SHOULD HAVE BEEN CAUGHT by Sweeney!!
Then again we should get more hits/ runs against that starting pitcher.

True Story
Yesterday after work I stopped by Walmart, hoping to buy a G.I. Joe, so that I could position his limbs in the shape of a letter K, and take a picture of it to use for recording Gio’s strikeouts.
I couldn’t find a decent G.I. Joe. Or at least not one that actually looked like Joe. There were a lot of weird things with the G.I. Joe brand name, but no Joe like I remember him.
Turns out it didn’t matter. I don’t think Gio got any strikeouts anyway. Or if he did, they were so outnumbered by hits that it would have been ridiculous to notice them.
