Torey Eaton  may have already earned the world's most prestigious award -- the Byun Hyung Kim trophy for worst closer.

Chicago's fire...starter(?) has converted 8-of-16 saves, giving him eight blown saves. A thing of beauty and poetry. In 33 games and 30.2 innings pitched, Eaton has surrendered eight homers and posted a 20/11 K/BB ratio. Opposing hitters are batting .291, reaching base 36 percent of the time and are slugging at a .520 clip. Oh yeah, his ERA is 6.75.

In his last glorious outing, he...oh shit, he got a save. A six-pitch save. And, in all fairness, he hasn't blown a save since the PM2 cycle on 2/21, when Austin converted 25 of his pitches into one hit and the winning run.
