State of the Twins

This is all you need to know:

Since Aug. 23, the Twins' bullpen is 0-7, with five blown saves.

Well, and this guy sure would have been nice to keep around:
Grant Balfour (1.63 ERA) has allowed only two home runs and has a .139 batting average against in 44 appearances.

Nicht gut, especially when Gardy puts a premium on pitching. Never heard of Grant.

Grant Balfour....was with the Twins a couple years ago. Has TJ surgery, doesn't come back strong right away, we dump him. I believe it was an option to minors. He found a different team, he becomes a stud. Not entirely Twins fault, but sure would have been nice to have him right now.

How much crap do you think he gets for being a pitcher named Ball four?
