Welcome Back Burney

After his second stint on the DL, Burnett finally returned and became victorious over the Royals. Through 7.1 innings Burnett only allowed one earnie, a homerun to up-and-coming third baseman Alex Gordon. Burnett was so pissed off because of it too, haha. A.J. only threw 90 pitches however, which is outstanding for 7.1 IP-- it was probably better on his shoulder too.

Glaus continued to come out of his slump going 2-for-4, Overbay also continued to come out going 3-for-5 with 2 doubles and 2 RBIs. Thomas, however, seems to be cooling down, considering he was 0-for his last 8 AB, two games.

Oh yeah, and we won 4-1

Big Bad Wolfe

Damnit, how can you not love this guy? He has the lowest ERA among all relievers, and he totally owns righties, holding them to a .128 average.

Other than that one blip where he surrendered a game-winning homerun to a wristless Carl Crawford, he's been really reliable, and we got him for practically nothing! Only Corey Koskie, which is just about worthless anyway.
