What an ugly, Aardsma-shaped graph.
I blame the rollercoaster images
Brutal. Just brutal
So Aardsma's imploding.

Who knew the league would catch up to a guy who throws fastballs 90% of the time?

Imploding?

Based on one game?

To be fair, these were Aardsma's first runs allowed on the year...

Still sucks though.

And totally predictable.
Who knew a flyball pitcher who normally pitches in Safeco wouldn't fair so well in a homerun park!?
Just DFA Aardsma now.

His penis is just about on the internet anyway.

Now its not worth nearly as much
What is the record for largest negative WPA in a single game?
Ichiro (and maybe others?) with -100%.
You can have more than -100%.
Have we had anyone beyond that mark?

I can’t remember.

Even that game Ichiro blew with the dropped catch

He probably didn’t have exactly -100% since he should have had some effect on the game before that. So if he had a bad game, he’d be even lower than -1.

Yeah

100% is just the max for a play. Obviously.

I just can't stand giving that twat Hawk Harrelson the satisfaction
I got in the car and was there for the 2 runs in the top of the ninth.

Then made it inside to see 3 runs after a shower.

I blame my desire for cleanliness…

And Rob Johnson.
Rob Johnson is like rape

Whenever I see him I want to shower.

You see a lot of rape?
No, whenever I get raped I shower.

I served a stint in Walla Walla.

That's just an Eastern Washington greeting.
Um, so Rob Johnson inspires you to become naked, wet, and vulnerable while thinking about rape
Well when you put it that way I sound like a sick bastard.
The last thing you should do is shower after something like that.

Your first instinct should be to go to a hospital and get a rape kit. A shower will destroy physical evidence of the act and let the rapist go free.

But the rapist is already in prison
Oh dear.

That ending didn’t sound very fun to watch.

It was a bit like getting kicked in the nuts
-89.4% Eww.
Way to blow, Aardsma.
Certainly one of the worst games ever.

One good pitch away.

That can't be right.

We musta had at least a hundred games that were worse.

Brandon Morrow with back to back blown saves were the worst, last year
Disagree

Nothing (playoffs excluded) was worse than this.

One man's awesome comeback is another man's epic fail.

How come we usually end up with the fail?

Yeah

but that was, disregarding the 116 win implication, a meaningless game. The two last year were soul-crushing, at least to me.

Of course, I was 9 for that Cleveland game so all I remember was listening to it on the radio and thinking how weird it was.
