"What's that saying? Payback is a pitch?"

 

Sigh...

Am I missing something? The Twins called up TWO fresh pitchers. There is now a SIX run lead. But Pressly is warming up?

 

If Paul isn't going to use them, why bring them up?

 

Mollie wins that one Glunn.....brilliant move to leave Erv in the game. 

Agreed. And clearly he know more than I do. This illustrates how we fans can be completely wrong.

 

Does Granite start in center tomorrow?

 

I would assume they go Rosario-Kepler-Grossman for a while. 

 

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. 

If your luck is like mine, he will immediately start to rake.

 

So on behalf of Twins fans everywhere, thank you for taking one for the team.

Says day-to-day, so  I would agree. Although with the new 10-day DL, maybe we will get Granite up for a cup of coffee. 

 

 

Radio says Buxton has a lacerated finger on his rt. hand. Day to day.

 

Given the 10 day DL list I sure hope day to day means one of two things, he plays or goes to the DL tomorrow.  I don't want to throw his defense away for potentially 7 or 8 extra games but time away wouldn't be the worst for him.

Because you never know when your gonna need to use 3 or 4 relief pitchers, and they aren't good enough to be our #1 option

 

Agreed. And clearly he know more than I do. This illustrates how we fans can be completely wrong.

 

It doesn't make you wrong... it doesn't make you right. 

 

But even if you are wrong... you are right... because you have always understood that there is more than what meets the eye and you have seen cats skinned in many different ways.

Probably if DTD. 

Santana's ERA now drops to 1.75!!!!!

Had to be done. It's just business.

 

 

Who cares if he goes 0-3. Astros have pop and as we saw last inning the OF defense is very important. The step down from Byron to either Grossman or Ehire is huge!! And the difference from Ehire and Byron's bat is not very different at all. Stupid move, unless it was done medically. 

It was medical after all

Why exactly are we using Pressly after a 25 pitch outing yesterday in a 6 run ballgame when we just called up 2 new pitchers? 

 

If your luck is like mine, he will immediately start to rake.

 

So on behalf of Twins fans everywhere, thank you for taking one for the team. 

 

fire molitor!

Most likely Kep... Grossman in right... Rosie in left... Esco utility outfield

 

 

Come on Pressly get an out!!!

Pressly...

Do not help a good team.

I would have given one of the new guys a shot with a 6 run lead. A chance to rest the entire pen. 

 

Molitor probably talked with everyone in the pen and asked them how they felt. Pressly probably sounded ready and willing in his response. 

Does Granite start in center tomorrow?

Please no.

cuz Twins

Looks like we get bad Pressly today, which shouldn't be too surprising considering how much he threw yesterday. 

Hopefully this doesn't turn into one of those "You hit my guy so we're hitting yours tomorrow" 

Get him out of the game, please.

Because you never know when your gonna need to use 3 or 4 relief pitchers, and they aren't good enough to be our #1 option

Who's talking about #1 option?

 

Six run lead. S I X. 1,2,3,4,5,6 run lead. If you can't get 3 outs, or even 6, without giving up 6 runs, you shouldn't be on the roster.

 

Yeah, bringing in Pressly sure has worked out well.

 

And now thanks to Molitor's utter incompetence, someone from the Twins will get drilled next inning.

Pressly probably sounded ready and willing in his response. 

I want "able".

 

^{_{/ h/t to Brian, generous comedian that he is, for the straight line}}

Next please.
