So this means Kepler hits a dinger tonight, right?

    You can make quite a list--Polanco, Buxton, Mauer, Belisle-who some have called for being taken off the roster. It's a long season.

    Berrios pitched a great game but the offense hasn't been able to support him.

    Good setup!   Not overwhelming, but definitely not underwhelming. So just... whelming.

Just saw where Royce Lewis was promoted to Cedar Rapids!

I honestly don't understand people who reach way over the wall or lean over to try to grab balls down the baselines and stuff. Quit it. You're a grown man, you don't need a baseball that bad.

Man...I missed it! And I was just about to joke Buxton doesn't like to play with others as he has not joined the Rosario/Kepler homer parade.

Rosario is on fire.  By month:

           BA   OBP  SLG   OPS

April  .268  .294  .366     .660

May  .269   .310  .500    .810

June  .291  .341  .519    .860

July   .321  .370  .488    .858

Aug   .324   .350 .703    1.053   So far....

I don't understand me either, but I'm reaching for any ball I can get to.  Reaction.

Anybody missing Oswaldo right now? I was reminded of his existence when his brother played against us for Milwaukee. Hard to see where he'd fit into this lineup even at his best.

Zimmerman's curve ball is finding the middle of the zone.

New ballgame we have.

I think I should have skipped over the first part of the thread. I thought the game was over! ;)

Zimmerman was throwing a lot of balls right down the middle. Good times!

I understand if its coming at you and at risk of hitting you. I don't understand the people who reach 3 feet over the outfield wall or are almost falling over the 3rd baseline wall trying to grab a ball. Obviously I can't fault someone for grabbing a ball thats going to hit them.

The Cubs gave Bartman a WS ring.

Same reason I stick my head out the train window. I'm hoping to catch my mail early. 

I guess at the end of the day, the guy reaching over the wall for the Buxton home run missed it entirely, so it's all irrelevant this time around.

For the record, I agree I shouldn't.

 

I just probably would.

 

Like I said...reaction.

Sano should sit Who's on the bench?

 

Who's on first.

 

Staaaaahp!

Things are often much easier in theory than in practice. 

 

Plus, I'm guessing at your age you'd miss the catch too.

What's happened to Berrios? I haven't been watching the game but following the box score, things do not look good. I really thought he was going to be progressing at this point.

Berrios becoming one of those pitch to contact guys that the Twins love?

No command. Lots of balls and lots of meatballs. Looks more like last year Berrios than 2 months ago Berrios.

At my age I probably don't even notice until it's too late.

Man, Kinsler caught that really hard in the wrist. I hope he's not injured.
