I pray that we can hold a lead for a change.

 

I pray for about 10 Billion Dollars so I can buy this team and have enough money to do whatever I want.

I thought there was nothing an owner could do?

Oof. That lineup. Why is Mastroianni leading off? Why is Park still hitting behind Plouffe? 

 

 

Plouffe: .236/.263/.681

Park: .268/.344/.942

 

Why is Park not in the 4 hole? Why in the hell does Molitor keep batting him 5th or 6th? This is starting to anger me (more).

I just can't figure it.  We've got our AAA Mendoza line guy leading off, and Molly's continuing insistence on the Plouffe-sized hole between Sano and Park.  Sheesh, the guy just got off rehab, and didn't exactly take to low-A pitching during that-  maybe ease him back in til he regains his stroke, maybe in the 6 or 7 spot?  But- that would make sense, and Molly, well.......

Sigh. Hopefully precautionary. If not, Kenny Vargas or ABW?

There isn't a rule that you have to replace him with another DH-only is there?

 

Also, I can't watch the game, what happened to Park?

Suzuki is either immune to concussions or great at faking it. 

umpire calls out Twins trainer to check Suzuki.  Bad sign

Oh... I can do stuff. 

 

I'll declare no scholarships for managers. I'd hire 5 Managers and rotate them. If you manage and win... you get to manage the next day. If you lose... you get moved to the back of the rotation. 

 

After a couple of months... I'll fire the two managers with the worst record. Not just fire them... Firing Squad right in front of the Kirby Puckett statue. Chief will be the guy who yells Fire. 

 

With the remaining three managers... I'll be able to manager by match up... I'll use the guy who does a better job against pitchers with high fly ball ratios for example. 

 

Oh... I can do stuff.

Since Gardy is assistant GM, I assume it is a rule now. Right after 2b must hit 2nd.

He was fooled by a Sale slider and tried to check his swing, but the pitch hit him in the knee/shin/thigh (didn't see where). Umps gave him the base instead of ringing him up on strikeout.

So I'm guessing Tommy Milone is still with the team?  I was kind of hoping someone would claim him.  Although I'm guessing if he asked for a trade over being sent to the bullpen they can always point to the fact that no other team would take him, even for nothing in return.
