  • Shoemaker doing exactly what a veteran should do after a big inning. Go out, work fast, throw strikes.

    It's a completely logical rule.  To record an out, a defender must control the baseball, and in some cases, also either tag a runner or touch a base.  On a dropped/passed third strike, the defender (i

I was wondering what took you so long. Still chomping away at the grilled ham & cheese?

 

That sounds really good, by the way.

Indeed. And it's out-*******-standing.

94 from Shoemaker?

 

I think they imported their speedgun from Milwaukee 

Rant: Dropped third strikes are the stupidest thing in baseball. A hitter should not be given the opportunity to reach base because they swung at a pitch in the dirt

Where'd Shoemaker come from? He's looked pretty solid so far. I know, it's only a couple innings.

How bad do you think Baddoo would have to perform for the Tigers to send him back to the Twins?

If he keeps this up I would gladly buy a pair of shoes from him

Well, Detroit is in full rebuild mode so they could probably keep him on the roster regardless of performance if they believe in his potential.

Simmons the walk machine.

Maybe they'd be pressured to return him if we could get a photo of him sneaking a garbage can out of Hinch's office.

Does Shoemaker look this good because he’s facing Detroit or does he look this good because he’s facing the Tigers?

Yes

Baldelli:  "Stop it with the no-hit innings!"

Bold assertion now that 10th innings start with a runner on second.
