May 23, 20179 yr Tyler "High Leverage" Duffey.Yeah, it's a pretty good pitcher to bring into a game with this big a lead, but they worked too hard to get back into this thing.I think Molly is doing the right thing. (yes, I said that!)
May 23, 20179 yr From the opener of 'Camden Chat'- the O's SB Nation blog: You shouldn't gamble on sports, but if you did, thinking about the "over" on runs would probably seem tempting tonight, what with Ubaldo Jimenez and his 6.52 ERA scheduled to pitch for the Orioles and Kyle Gibson and his 8.20 ERA scheduled to pitch for the Twins.
May 23, 20179 yr No you appear to be a Viking fan. The Twins have had some bad seasons, and every once in a while over the years have blown bigger leads, but they don't let you down in a regular season game with a big lead often.I've seen the Twins blow enough leads over the years or take a close game late an absolute blowout.

May 23, 20179 yr Balk Showalter is not amused.Wouldn't you just love to have a gif of Showalter hiding his face? I about died laughing.
May 23, 20179 yr Kepler has stung every ball tonight 108 off the bat, he sure did. Too bad Davis made a nice play
May 23, 20179 yr Kepler has stung every ball tonight And yesterday! Picked him up in Fantasy for Sunday games and kept him in their today. He's seeing the ball well!
May 23, 20179 yr Author Where did that pitch miss. I think that was another strike. I'm not sure that Duffey has really thrown a ball yet.
May 23, 20179 yr Where did that pitch miss. I think that was another strike. I'm not sure that Duffey has really thrown a ball yet. Umpire got bored calling strikes?
May 23, 20179 yr Oh, my, my.... I've been having a fun time peeking at that O's blog- a lot of stuff they've said about Ubaldo sounds vaguely familiar. But somebody posted this during the 6-run inning, with caption: Notice the "O" over the hydrogen bomb's mushroom cloud?
May 23, 20179 yr Indians rotation is 3rd in the AL in FIP and WAR. Tied for 1st in K/9, 5th in BB/9. But they have the 2nd worst LOB%, and they have the 2nd highest BABIP (which contributes to the worst AL ERA), so they apparently have the worst rotation... Edited May 23, 20179 yr by jimmer
May 23, 20179 yr Balk Showalter is not amused.Even better, can you imagine if Torii had been in the booth during that whole thing? He'd have been merciless.
May 23, 20179 yr Author Are there that few people at the game that I can hear police sirens? It's Baltimore You can hear them But the people of Baltimore have gotten so used to them that they don't hear them anymore. So they gotta make em louder.
May 23, 20179 yr Are there that few people at the game that I can hear police sirens?I thought this game was in Baltimore?!
May 23, 20179 yr Are there that few people at the game that I can hear police sirens?Uhh, I think the stadium is in a really really bad part of town. To the point full house or not, you're gonna hear sirens.
May 23, 20179 yr Going into today, Twins wRC+ at home was 103, Twins wRC+ on the road was 97. Were our announcers just saying we hit better on the road? Cause no...not by wRC+ or standard BA/OBP/SLG% Edited May 23, 20179 yr by jimmer
May 23, 20179 yr I missed all of this, but am liking the score. As always, insurance runs would be appreciated.
May 23, 20179 yr Author Uhh, I think the stadium is in a really really bad part of town. To the point full house or not, you're gonna hear sirens. I've been there. Nice stadium in a decent part of town about a block away from a crappy part of town.
May 23, 20179 yr Even better, can you imagine if Torii had been in the booth during that whole thing? He'd have been merciless. #isuck
May 23, 20179 yr I thought I heard on the radio today that the Twins bullpen over the last couple weeks has the best ERA. Anyone able to confirm?
