Nice to see Gardenhire batting his "Gardy's pet" in Chris Parmalee in the 3 hole again and playing first base. Must be nice being the teachers pet. You get to bat third even if it is undeserved. Until we are rid of "Gardenhire" this franchise is doomed. Gardy always has teachers pet's guy's that he thinks are way better than they are, but the statistics prove otherwise. This will be long slog before Gardenhire finally resigns maybe two years from now in the final year of his deal. Why would he resign the money is too good, there is no pressure to win here and he get's to keep all of his buddy's on his coaching staff even as he empty's out the stadium in August and September. How low do they go before they even make him make a token firing?

 

Who on this team is deserving of batting third?

It wasn't glaringly obvious on the replay. Took Dick'n'Bert 3 re-plays to notice. Dozier has to speak up there.

Actually, I thought it was obvious on the first replay.

 

in all seriousness, this is exactly the kind of thing that angers me sometimes about the Twins. What type of replay system do they have set up in-house to advise their bench when to stall so the video guy can take a look? My gut tells me they wait until the manager trots out on the field before someone looks at video, and my gut also tells me some other teams are doing it just the opposite.

It's possible. But in this case, there naturally wasn't much time (no new batter, etc.) and Dozier made no protest. Hard to blame the manager/video guy when the player who made the play doesn't say boo.

Fair enough. We'll agree to disagree on this one. It just seems to me the Twins aren't often on the leading edge of game changing trends. Replay is here, use it to your advantage.

That Jack Links commercial on the airplane is the worst yet, of a really bad lot.

I was just going to say those jerky commercials are weird.

I've gotten a chuckle from a couple of them, but the vast majority are completely forgettable.
