I'm glad to hear Bert is getting at Mauer for not making any adjustments when they shift him to the extreme left. 

Well, the thing is that it's not only the fielders that are involved. He was pitched down and away to prevent him from being likely to pull.

[TheGiantTeapot]

Joe. 2 on, no outs. Strike one looking. strike two looking. Slaps weakly to second. Argghh! IT BURNS!!!!!!!! Make it stop!!!!

 

[Jerr]

YEAH!!!! DEFENSE!!!!!!!

[Aggies7]

Wild go down 1-0 to St. Louis second period. Hard to believe with how hot they were earlier on. Something about MN teams choking..

[Jerr]

Kepler!!! Luv 'em!!!!

[nicksaviking]

Ho-ly crap. Bert was pretty scathing calling Mauer out for not adjusting his approach at the plate. "Dick he has to make an adjustment and he will not do it." "Joe will not attempt to pull the ball." "You can say that Joe is getting cheated but Joe is not making an adjustment like a pitcher makes an adjustment."

He did sound a bit peeved

[TheGiantTeapot]

Dear God. $23 Million for this.

[Jerr]

Twins score 1!!!!!!

[spinowner]

Hoo-rah!

[MNTSchmitt]

Nice job Castro to knock in Kepler. I've been very pleased with our pick up of Castro. May not have made big splashes in free agency, but Castro has been worth every dime. Polanco has been a pleasant suprise too.

I feel his frustration but Bert needs to know better, game threads are light hearted and full of frivolity.

[MNTSchmitt]

I'm hoping Buxton can gain some confidence hitting against a shakey 5 spot pitcher.

[Jerr]

Come on Buxton do it!!!!

I'm glad we only have to put up with comments like this for a little over 1 more year.

The comment or the contract?

[Brock Beauchamp]

How much is Mauer paid again? I forget.

[MNTSchmitt]

I will say with him striking out, he doesn't look to be getting frustrated with him self. He looks to stay positive. I'm still hoping he hits himself out of this and brings back september. COME ON BUXTON!

I meant SUMTHIN' different than a KO     

[Aggies7]

Not sure why any pitcher throws BB anything in the zone, ever.

[MNTSchmitt]

Aaron Hicks is killing it for the Yankees btw....why did we ever get rid of him? I got his autograph a couple spring trainings ago.

[Aggies7]

Think about how awkward the GDT silence would be if a moratorium were to be placed on Joe M comments. The franchise albatross would become the elephant in the room (or board)

Now you are really tempting fate. You do realize that ChiTown will read this, and, well, I don't want to be around when that happens.

ChiTown is Brian's editor. ChiTown has (had) the power to delete this and chose not to. But ChiTown did add some very teeny, tiny small print at the very bottom, underneath the weather forecast.

[Mike Sixel]

Look, Mauer has to adjust to situations. He seems to refuse.

 

Buxton just sucks. I recall people telling me he was a better prospect than seager. Same people that said the Cubs and Astros were no better than the twins....
