Twins@Cardinals Roger Dean Stadium 10:05 am PT (12:05 CT)

Esco walks ... bases loaded ... 1 out ... JR Murphy up ...

Wait, wasn't Rosenthal their closer before?

Yep.  The Cards have promised him the opportunity to win a starting spot, though.  Last year, he worked as a starter in ST, briefly.  This year, it's more of a real opportunity, but the stories I've seen expect him to be more of a RH Andrew Miller.  Seung Kwan Oh took over the closing role when Rosenthal struggled last year (he also had an injury of some sort that he is supposed to be recovered from).

Nice outing by Gibson...

Game still tied in the 8th; the subs for both teams are making their way in.

[Squirrel]

Tonkin pitched the 6th and the 7th ... no hits, no walks, 3 SO.

Do you think O'Rourke vomits before each appearance because he's always getting sent in to face a bunch of right-handed hitters?

I sure wish we could face these Cardinals' spring training lineups all year. We'd have 5 Cy Young contenders by the year's end.

maybe it's a personal branding thing, like fernando rodney's arrow shot or ozzie's backflip.

He wasn't that good last spring, so let's hope that he's looking more like the 2015 second half version than the 2016 version.

I thought their starting lineup today was mostly starters? No?

[Squirrel]

Twins lose in the bottom of the 9th, 2-1. Losing pitcher is Ricinski.

The first 5 players in their lineup for sure. The last 4, can't say I've heard of them before. So your statement is valid!

Moreso than yesterday but still looks like some young'ns in there. Come to think of it, I'm not sure who the Cardinals' starters even are anymore. Neither lineup really looks to be a murder's row.

So the chickens go hungry tonight.

 

Oh well.

Anyone here interested in the inner workings of Mac computers? Unfortunately, since I'm trying to get some Mac's to behave, I'm having trouble thinking beyond ssh, scp and Linux. How any of that ties into baseball is anyone's guess. And it certainly bodes ill for a baseball thread.

 

Baseball threads should be newly mowed grass, hot dogs, beverages, alcoholic or otherwise, with the occasional wisecrack thrown in.

 

Maybe a musical interlude will liven things up:

What do you need to know? PM me if you want.

What do you need to know? PM me if you want.

I want to know why Mac went from using plist xml files to using a sqlite database for preferences..without bothering to, you know mention it.

 

I'm integrating Mac's into an AD environment. I'm not enthralled with some of the third party tools and I'm also frustrated by the lack of documentation for some of the stuff. 

 

But, I've got some cool bash scripts I've put together that automates a lot of what I need to do and ARD does a decent job, once it's configured.
