    like watching The Bad News Bears.

    He bought into the idea that the ball was in the air. He still sees no flaw in that. It's the ball's fault it was on the ground

    I HATE losing to the White Sox more than any other team. HATE IT! Getting humiliated by them (and our own play) makes it even worse.
  4. jimmer
    do some research that requires more than 10 seconds?
  5. jimmer
    how dare he not get on base at least once! Loser! :-)

    The young Garcia used to play RF, but it hurt their defense, so they moved him to DH for a better fielding OF?

    did I hear that right? did activity just now start in the Twins bullpen?

    here comes the hook. edit: Oooooorrrrr not.

    If he was a rookie, he would have been pulled innings ago. good thing he has such a strong history of quality pitching for the Twins.
  10. jimmer
    forgot how to run to first and his body lost muscle memory? :-)
  11. jimmer
    why was Escobar pulled? who is left on the bench??
  12. jimmer
    Hard to believe defense affects pitching. Even something barely important like corner defense :-)

    Nice play by Joe. If he doesn't cut that off, guy likely scores. BTW, someone needs PFP.

    Not sure if I remember correctly, but if I do, I had one of their pizzas (it was definitely someone's) at a Kiosk at Ohare one time while I was waiting for a connecting flight and I liked it so much I sent one to my dad. They kept it chilled and flew it out to him (deliveries like that were normal, part of their service, many people have pizzas delivered). Cost me quite a bit but he was appreciative since he's originally from Chicago.

    Nice play by Cabrera. That's a double against most LF. Seems this game, corner defense has mattered.
  16. jimmer
    He's a master of it.

    It's the kind of play that gets high school players kicked off their team. Gets even HS managers to sya things like, 'If you've gone this far in baseball already and haven't figured out that doing that is boneheaded, then you're gone' :-)

    Is it Centeno?

    So Murphy got optioned, who is our backup catcher? BTW, wasn't Murphy supposed to push Suzuki for playing time and pretty much take over the starting job by season's end? Be prepared to welcome Suzuki back next year.
  20. jimmer
    And he's going to stop being good this year during this particular start?

    'I asked Pohlad why he has resisted the urge to make wholesale changes in organizational philosophy. “I don’t know what the difference in philosophy that people would like to see,” he said. “Everybody had universally high expectations for this season relative to last season. We bought into that. I still don’t see any flaw in that. It’s just system failure.”' Everyone had universally high expectations? And, BTW, there were huge flaws into buying into that. If the owner(s) and management bought into that, they weren't looking too deeply at the team assembled and how the numbers they had last year didn't support the record they had last year.

    Seth, I thought I read an article by you before the season started or maybe it was just some comments, that said you thought we would be serious division contenders this season. Am I remembering correctly?
  23. jimmer
    I'm sorry, but this is a poorly constructed team. That's on Ryan. Molitor has made a lot of boneheaded moves, but Ryan has made some questionable calls too.

    'I think he will be more than fine. He has to be as good as Span, better than Revere (whom everyone seems to hate, but the guy gets on base and steals them...what more can you ask there)' Span is very under-rated. He was as a Twin by both the fan base and the media. He still is in a lot of ways. Revere has only recently started getting on base at a decent clip. His career OBP is still under .330 and 24 points below Span's career OBP. And even if one really cared about SBs, he's also only eclipsed 30 SBs once. And Span was always the better CF (even before taking into account Revere's noodle arm). Span just isn't flashy and doesn't have a big smile. I'm not sure there's any way to say that, as an overall player, Buxton HAS to be as good as Span. I'd be happy with that and not sure he'll ever get there.

    I was there. In person. The 2nd game of a split double header. I had fantastic seats, but drank a bit too much between games and every half inning it was off to the bathroom. Edit, nope. Not his first game. My bad. His 4th start. Sorry.
