Volquez and cueto are also good buds  :cheers:, maybe even the best of buds.  Here's a cool article from 2008.

We need to come up with a cool nickname for our Dominican trio of stud pitchers.

Great idea.  It would take me awhile.  I'll wait to hear what the rest of you come up with.
FAN, when are you back to work?

As much as I appreciate the blowout, it doesn't make for very exciting watching.

Blanton is trying to make it interesting. Apparently.

Thanks for those two or however many games you helped us win Blanton, but it's time to get off our team.

poor blantsie.  if he gets dfa'd this will be a poor way to have finished his time in kansas city.  if he is the one being killed off, i hope they give him another game to try and go out in better fashion.

I'm fine with what Joe gave us, but not sorry for him if he's done. He wouldn't be pitching at all if it wasn't for the Royals.

 :jerk:I am gonna channel my inner Sys and say dammit Yost, why couldn't you take Volqy out after 6. Sucks he battled all night and gets stuck with 3 runs cause Joe gives up a Dong on batter #1

just two to volkie i think.

i don't know why yost sent him back out.  yeah, they need to limit innings for the important relievers, but not for blanton.  pitching these meaningless innings is exactly why blanton is there, they needed to give him the ball and let him do his job.

I have to admit, I often get Paulo and Rios mixed up when batting until I see their names. #theylooksimilar
