LoMo with the oppo dinger!

And then the call of LoMos' dinger was so low-key that I almost failed to look up to see it land in the seats.

You heard the man! Line up!

I did, but when I reached the front of the line I was informed he hadn't said, "punch". Left, disappointed.

LoMo a GoGO.

Well, if they're going to get Romero back up, I'd be for that. But for whatever reason Belisle needs a roster spot all to himself. I think I'd rather have Tyler Kinley back on the roster rather than him.

 

I still don't understand why Fernando was sent down. He's a rookie and is going to make mistakes; let the kids play. It's not only Belise, but Magill, the fact that Taylor Motter was claimed, Fernando Rodney is still the closer, Pressly gets used every other game, Reed is still used in high leverage situations while getting shelled, Wilson keeps playing, Morrison is still on the team...

 

There's a whole lot of problems...

Oh! Sorry, I came late- only made it to one knee...

That's fine

 

1 knee = 2 feet, so i've been told.

The Cave man will not be stopped!

Morrison is still on the team...

You're not actually following tonight's game, are you?

That's Captain Caveman to you.

Dick keeps talking about how disappointing of a season Schoop is having with his average just over .200. He'd fit right in with our lineup.

C'mon now Slegers, hold it together.

That's Captain Caveman to you.

I figured by now he would have made Major.

Tailor-made double play there. Always nice to see one turned smoothly.

 

You're not actually following tonight's game, are you?

 

Hitting .192? .640 OPS? 29 RBI? Mediocre defense? Dude needs to go; trade or release him, does not matter at this point.

 

I think it's more of the fact of how he changed his number to 99 and how he handled interviews before actually playing a game. Don't change your number to imitate the best power hitter in the league and hit .192 with nine home runs.

 

Honestly, this is the first inning of baseball I've watched in almost two weeks. This team just isn't very fun to watch. I regret getting my MLB.tv subscription so early and not getting the MiLB.tv instead; probably going to do that next year.

Hitting .192?

Not tonight.

So far: Morrison > Davis

Alright, Slegers, get one more inning and then head back to the hotel to pack your bags and head back to Rochacha, NY.

 

Got to meet him last week. Seemed like a stand-up guy with a nice sense of humor. Dude is SUPER tall... may have picked the wrong sport, lol.

 

So far: Morrison > Davis

 

Yikes! Hitting .153? Wow. Just wow... 

I hope they bring Slegers out for the 7th, but with Pressly warming up, I guess Paul is on a quest to overuse him as much as possible.

Slegers has gone 6 innings on only 72 pitches.

 

Is that legal in Minnesota?

Everyday Pressly up and at 'em... unbelievable.

 

Yikes! Hitting .153? Wow. Just wow... 

Have you seen this article? https://deadspin.com/are-the-orioles-going-to-let-chris-davis-have-the-worst-1826667920 The dude's on pace to have one of the worst seasons in MLB history... and the Orioles owe him $69M after this season.

I haven't seen that article. I guess being a Twins fan we get ticked when we don't sign guys to high dollar contracts, but honestly, they aren't conducive to success. Has Davis been worth it since signing that huge deal? Only four seasons of +.800 OPS in 11 years as a major league ball player. And people want to complain about Mauer's huge contract...

We better not go straight to the pen next inning. Anyone see if Slegers was getting handshakes in the dugout like he was done for the night?

Wilson now batting .117.

Polanco's hustle goes for naught.

Wilson now batting .115.

 

Wilson now batting .115.

 

I could hit .115.

 

Can I make a prorated MLB minimum salary?

 

According to Baseball Reference

 

Garver's WAR: 0.3

Wilson's WAR: -0.5

 

His catching ability cannot possibly be that good that he is still on this team. And if he's a "mentor" to Garver, obviously isn't doing a hell of a job teaching him the finer points of receiving.

Slegers pulled after 72 pitches so we can go to our overworked bullpen.  they couldn't even give him one batter in the 7th to see how it goes?
