I was at the Indians game where they were soundly thrashed by the Orioles. Again, the bullpen screwed it up. This time Perez and Mujica blowing it up in the eighth. Mujica still recovering from that Tampa debacle, it seems, and Perez was due for a bad game.

The beef I had with Wedgie is he knows the bullpen sucks but doesn't give the team a safety net by automatically backing a pitcher up. In other words, Mujica enters the game. Why not have the next guy start warming up immediately? I mean, what track record of Mujica's gives him confidence that he can survive an inning unscathed? It shows me they need some arms out there. Everyone is probably gassed. Although Wedgie pulls this crap as early as Game 1, so go figure.

Hey, they found Bigfoot. Well, at least we think it's Bigfoot. Press conference on Friday.

StubHub has the 20 most rockin' U.S. cities. Miraculously, Cleveland ranks 20th, with the upcoming Jonas Brothers show the Number 3 best-seller here. Richmond and Indianapolis rate higher.

College? Bah! Waste of time. Save your money, buy a house, learn a trade.

The DNA hair samples from Anthrax Guy don't match. So, they still can't link him directly.
