Did you  see the hit?

To be fair, no he didn't.

Regardless, Graham was >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Achter, Cotts, etc. tonight, and that's the game that matters.

Do you not remember Alex Rodriguez and the Yankees???? I think you said something then too. Damned if you do, damned if you dont.

No, but I hear that it was a cheap one.

I'm sure I did ... wanna check for me?

In the 2nd inning where you need a guy to go multiple innings anyways, Graham is a vastly superior option then Achter.

Should i get excited that Rosario is on base?

Depends on how often you feel that it happens....

Well the outcome is the same..... and that is said with not wanting Achter in there either.

The game has come to that.   Judging the merits of an intentional walk.

I get your joke, by the way

 

Walking with an intentional gait, because of he.... well, you know.

No, no it isn't at all.

I just realized Pelfrey is starting tomorrow. That explains why he is not available for long relief tonight .

 

By the way, the Twins do not have  a long reliever, so we can dispel that myth. No one tonight pitched more than 2 innings. That is not long relief.

I think I can take it if Dave can. But I went and checked myself ... no, I said nothing about O'Rourke during the Yankees series. I didn't check to see if Dave did.

 

Pretty much all I said was this:

Honest question: How did Dick Bremer get this job? He is terrible and seemingly has an IQ hovering 100.

I get how Bert did, but Bremer, what blackmail does he have on the Pohlad family?

Dick Bremer just intimated that Erick Aybar was serving as a translator in a mound conference with Hector Santiago, who is from Newark.

 

No, no it isn't at all.

Sure it is, they both gave up grand slams, and Trout is better than Rodriguez. Both were high leverage situations, even tho this game was in the 2nd, it was a very important at bat..............now with that said, again, i didnt want Achter in there, and I would have preferred Graham, but the same result could have happened.

Graham likely doesn't put him in a hitters count 2-0. Graham likely also doesn't give up a 2 run bomb an inning later to an average player at best. Bringing in Achter was dumb enough, but to leave him in the next inning? WTF man? It's September, you don't need to "save" the pen.

Was that a legit hit?

Good at bat by a (tired) Brian Dozier?

Hicks!

Hey Dozier's on base.

 

That can't be bad.

 

(And Hicks scored all by himself. I like homers)

 

 

Good at bat by a (tired) Brian Dozier?

Timely for sure!

 

 

No, no it isn't at all.

I will say , this one was an easy second guess, because everyone and their mother knew that this was not a situation for Achter, other than Darnell and O'Rourke, anyone else was better.

Given the New Jersey education system, he was probably translating English.

This is just relentlessly bad baseball, even if you ignore what's at stake...

Dozier orders take out, gets Mauer on first to replace him.

 

I still could get excited by this inning...

Many of us could, but it would have nothing to do with baseball....

I have promised the dog a walk to get ice cream if the Twins win tonight.

What kind of ice cream does the dog get?

Yes, but not enough to quit.
