Remember when leading in the 9th inning used to be fun?

> thank god for glen perkins did i just read that? i mean, in two years might we be reading "mauer should be mvp" or "baker/liriano should be cy young" (and still be twins)? :)

Strib: Cuddyer had two RBIs, not three... one run scored via an error on Cuddy's RBI single.

Capps is hard to watch. Let's switch Nathan to closer, Perkins to set up, and Capps to middle relief.

Hopefully Cuddyer isn't playing his way out of the Twins being able to resign him.

It's amazing to see C(r)uddy's turn around. At the beginning of the year, it appeared that he would be the new Punto whipping boy of these comment sections. It's been great to see most of those double play grounders turn into lofting hits in the outfield. Looks like we need to retire the R in parens around his name.
