May 29, 20179 yr I like the move to bench Buxton after that last AB... he's lost out thereI would like him to stay in for his defense. I suspect that he may be injured.
May 29, 20179 yr Santana will start the 7th. He may not finish it... Pressly and Breslow are the only guys that I'd consider using besides the new duo. I respectfully disagree with Erv coming back out. He looked tired last inning.
May 29, 20179 yr Molly loves his backup middle infielders in LF. In other words, he loves giving fans heart attacks.
May 29, 20179 yr Mollie has had some head scratchers for sure, but I can't see him being so dense as to take out arguably his most valuable defensive asset without a good reason, up by 5 runs.
May 29, 20179 yr I respectfully disagree with Erv coming back out. He looked tired last inning.Nah, he just looked wet.
May 29, 20179 yr I would have yanked Buxton because of that bone-headed at bat...Up by 5 with the defense he provides?
May 29, 20179 yr The Twins needed Santana to give them at least 7, Santana delivers. Players are stepping up when needed. Very cool.
May 29, 20179 yr Mollie wins that one Glunn.....brilliant move to leave Erv in the game. You stick with your Ace as long as possible.
May 29, 20179 yr Up by 5 with the defense he provides?Absolutely. Very poor judgement in that last AB.
May 29, 20179 yr Author I respectfully disagree with Erv coming back out. He looked tired last inning. Under normal circumstances... he wouldn't have pitched it. The Bullpen is really taxed. One more inning may not seem like much but it really helps when everybody in the pen has thrown a lot of pitches in the last 3 days. Personally... I would have told him good job and brought in one of the new guys.
May 29, 20179 yr A great outing from Santana even if it seems routine at this point and a little offense make the sting and fear of what yesterday might turn into go away pretty easily. Just finish this out without any damage.
May 29, 20179 yr Author I hate to say it but I just did it. I hung on to him all year but I just dropped Byron Buxton from my fantasy team. Logan Morrison was available... I have Belt but he is OF Eligible so he can replace Buxton in the OF... So I did it. I kept waiting for Buxton to rise and Morrison to regress. Morrison looked locked in this weekend. I pushed the button... it's a done deal... no looking back now.
May 29, 20179 yr Today would be a great day for lots of insurance runs. The bullpen is gassed and it would be nice to deplete the Houston bullpen so that they are gassed tomorrow.There's one!
