Well that was awful.

Bello faced 28 batters over six innings, giving up 3 earned runs, walking three and striking out one. But that wasn't the worst part.

The bullpen faced 21 batters over three innings, giving up 6 earned runs, walking five and striking out one. But that still wasn't the worst part.

The batters got four hits and zero runs. That was the worst part.

The Blue Jays won the game 9-0.

Today's game started at 4:10 and Giolito had the start. As I post this, it is the top of the 2nd inning and the score is 3-0 in favor of the Red Sox.

Here's some kinda good news:

The DJIA is only down 1/2% since The Very Stable Genius took office.

That is way better than the 9% it was down a few weeks ago.

The biggest problem I have with my freshly canaled tooth is remembering that I should not chew on that side of my mouth.

Considering the last week or so has been less than enjoyable for me, I can say this is not a bad problem to have.
