  1. Damm I wanted Young to pitch to Dozier one more time. Because I can say with 100% certainty that Dozier would have went deep on him!
  2. I heard it--Bert said "major league level"! Everybody take your Coors, Fosters, Sam Adams, Molsons (if from Canada) and drink
  3. I hope this (lack of) activity on the game thread isn't a foreboding of the end of the Twins season. Because I was promised a fairy tale. I demand a fairy tale!
  4. Houston in the 1st inning, threatening to make the Twins and Angels games moot.
  5. Chris Young is a big nothing pitcher. Lots of guys are hitting hard hit balls but right at the third baseman. And hopefully we see one more inning of him.
  6. HAHA we all pulled the silent treatment on you twinsnorth49!! Now imagine everybody comes laughing and runs your head.
  7. Yes. Just hold it. It was hit too soft to come to the plate. What can you do.
  8. Ok we still got this. Santana pitching fine. Just no more lead off doubles for the Royals.
  9. Dammit. Dozier has him timed tonight just hasn't gotten it straightened out. Third times a charm.
  10. Good for Twins, as Young does not have his stuff tonight (not that he ever had much to begin with) Also this post is certified jinx proof
  11. Tyler Duffey is cute and everything, but can we watch the game please Fox?
  12. There's a movement afoot in other markets to have those seats filled, even if not by the legal ticket holders. Giving them to kids and such. Tomorrow's Twins game is national so hopefully the Twins ticket office gets off their rears and makes sure those seats get used
  13. I hate that fox track strike zone of 9 different flat sections. Real strike zones have dimension. Those curves to Zobrist broke through the front corner of the plate. I know this because I am sitting up in the blimp above home plate
  14. On the heels of Justin Bieber and barbershop quartets, I present, from England....... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
  15. Concur. No way. Sounds like the dugout was venting some steam because they were losing, but it's all business tomorrow.
  16. I agree completely. Sano is MVP. His net WPA, when prorated through an entire season, rates about 6th or 7th in the majors. That's Miguel Cabrera, Bryce Harper, Mike Trout territory. And the homer in Kansas City could become one of those iconic home runs we remember for years (after the championships have been won). I disagree on ROY, however. I think rookie of the year is Eddie Rosario. I just think what Rosario brought to the outfield and of course his hitting was just as valuable overall as what Sano contributed. (Don't ask me how that works, rating Sano the team MVP but only the second best rookie )
  17. Considering RBI's reputation among the SABR crowd, what should we think of WPA then? I really like WPA but it just doesn't square up sometimes. Like I said above, Sano's 2B doesn't seem like it should be that much more valuable than Mauer's.
  18. I also agree with above posters. I know there is data behind it, but it intuitively does not make sense that Sano's double was statistically 5 times more important that Mauer's double.
  19. Also, Gladden was blaming Hunter getting picked off second on Escobar not laying down a sacrifice bunt on a strike pitch. "Torii thought Escobar was going to bunt that, so Torii took an extended lead off second." Umm, no. Unless Molitor and the Twins have created something they call "the suicide sacrifice" to advance base runners.
