June 3, 201610 yr I. SWEAR. TO. GOD. How can you be a major-leaguer, especially someone like Bux, with speed to burn, AND NOT KNOW HOW TO GET A BUNT DOWN. What is going on in those minor leagues, or spring training? Why in the heck are the skills just so bad all the way across the board???Has the element of surprise with the buxton bunt completely and totally gone yet? What are you thinking Suzuki?
June 3, 201610 yr Y'know, on the other hand, maybe it's a good thing every single one of the Twins suck at bunting.
June 3, 201610 yr A H&R with Zuke on first and Buxton at the plate...and it works. Sometimes you hit on 18 and catch a 3.
June 3, 201610 yr Heh... does this Ramirez look like the right handed version of Everyday Eddie out there?
June 3, 201610 yr Y'know, on the other hand, maybe it's a good thing every single one of the Twins suck at bunting.most major leaguers do. Read an article on that awhile ago about how incredibly hard to is to actually do at that level. I'll try to find it. It was written in response to why batters don't just bunt when they get incredible shifts placed against them.
June 3, 201610 yr Heh... does this Ramirez look like the right handed version of Everyday Eddie out there?I was thinking dennys reyes
June 3, 201610 yr Gotta love IBB the guy in front of the guy who homered in his last ABsets up double play and gets you to face a much inferior batter.
June 3, 201610 yr Heh---- I love Dick's confidence-- "Plouffe a chance to break the game open-- at least for the time being..."
June 3, 201610 yr sets up double play and gets you to face a much inferior batter.I know,I was just poking fun at dozier. Not often do you walk the 2 hitter to face the 3
June 3, 201610 yr Jack: "how does dozier NOT get hit by that pitch?"you know, because he's a pull hitter...something new to hear from Jack :-)
June 3, 201610 yr I know,I was just poking fun at dozier. Not often do you walk the 2 hitter to face the 3teams outright laughing at the idea Dozier bats third.
June 3, 201610 yr Of course... the Twins load the bases and get their only run off a HBP... well, at least they didn't get no runs. So, who's betting that the Rays score next inning?
June 3, 201610 yr Well, he Plouffed that one. At least Dozier beat the shift for a change. Now, is it too much to ask for a zero from Taylor Rogers? Come on, come on.....
June 3, 201610 yr A H&R with Zuke on first and Buxton at the plate...and it works. Sometimes you hit on 18 and catch a 3.Just as long as it doesn't convince you it's good strategy rather than luck.
June 3, 201610 yr It's gone under the radar how terrible Plouffe has been lately. When you're a minnow swimming in a sea of terrible, it's hard to get noticed.
