Are you kidding me?

 

I was thinking by "put to sleep" you meant kind of like executed in a quiet way like they do to ailing cats and old dogs.

I thought the same thing, and did consider a line-up shift in which no one is humanely executed would be a slight positive despite the relative unlikeliness of the alternative...

At the end of the day, the sum of Gibson just always seems to add up to less than the parts. 

Something small goes wrong, and Gibson's game falls apart. He has a very fragile "zone" where everything is working. I'm not sure if he's ever going to mature into a reliable starter. Maybe after he leaves the Twins..?

Yeah

 

That's what I meant.

 

Some players know what happening and don't want to get out of the car when they see it pull up to Molly's Office. 

 

I'm wondering where was the cutoff man? I didn't see anybody waving for the ball between Rosario and the pitcher's mound. So, Rosario threw it at the pitcher's mound.

 

Vargas was running toward the cut position. 

 

It appears that Vargas may have been delayed for some reason.

None of which excuses Rosario even making that throw home, much less a rainbow that hits the mound on the fly.

I disagree

 

If he was aiming for the mound... I consider that very impressive!!!

 

Well, my TV died, so I guess it's back to watching the game on MLB Gameday... I'll cheer for a 'In Play - No out(s)'.

Not that it's ever needed, but this seems like a good excuse to run out and spend $1500 or so on a new TV.  

 

Pop quiz: what do Max Kepler, Robbie Grossman, Trevor Plouffe, Eduardo Escobar, and Byungho Park have in common?

Can you give a clue? Like 20 of them?

Well, the TV's fine, it was just the cable box. That needs to be replaced. But it's working now...

Seems like the whole world comes to a halt when Gibson is pitching.  And not in a good way...

So, are we still calling Danny Santana the 25th man and a backup?  He has started seven of the last nine games.

The Marlins have a retractable roof.

 

And the rest are football, so not a fair comparison.

Okay, I knew it was bad, but I didn't know it was THIS bad!

He is maddening to watch.

You forgot to mention that he has hit .360 during that stretch.  :)

I just realized you asked for 20 clues, and I only gave you one.

Kepler is brainy and brawny (I exaggerate) to boot. A player's player. Etc.

Looks like Sano straightened out that pop-up from last year.
