Unfortunately, the time to fix that was about 5 months ago

What in gods name is altuve hitting against the twins? Like .650?

[Riverbrian]

 

If a tree falls in the forest and Jason Castro strikes out every time, does it make a sound?

 

If Castro has the Ax

 

Right now... I'd say he'd miss the tree... the tree would not fall... and therefore no sound. 

[Aggies7]

Remember folks, altuve was an undrafted free agent signing for the stros

I think it's just a shade over .800

So, no fear, we are about to acquire an all star closer.

Is that all?!

[Aggies7]

Funny how it's all gone to crud so quickly. I watched the 9th inning on Sunday, a bit nervous but still thinking kintzler would close it out considering how he always tightropes. Funny how quickly this game can turn.

Probably would just stand there with the axe on his shoulder and expect the tree to fall without a swing. Just like how he strikes out looking all the time.

I'm not sure I can help with that. I barely know how to use a mouse. 

 

Send a PM to Brock Beauchamp. He is the IT guy for the site. 

 

If he doesn't have a lot of posting history on the site. He could create a fresh account.

I've copied the post and sent it directly to Brock.

6 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 7 K for Fernando Romero tonight.

 

So tonight hasn't been all bad.

I'm not feeling that excitement that you are

[yarnivek1972]

So, now who pitches? Unless the Twins score a run or two, it really wouldn't make sense to use Duffey, Rogers or Kintzler. I can't imagine Pressly, Belisle or Breslow being available given their workload the last two games.

 

This is probably already Boshers longest appearance at any level in 2 years.

 

Looks like Wheeler. Which means he and Boshers are likely sent out tomorrow in favor of others. Hildenberger maybe? Turley?

[Aggies7]

Man, wheelers mom is making me want to cry

[70charger]

Torrance is not in Orange County, Bert. 

 

Orange County is nothing but boring.

[Riverbrian]

 

Man, wheelers mom is making me want to cry

 

I love these stories. 

 

Guys like Wheeler getting a shot. It means a lot to Wheeler and all the people around him. 

 

 

[Aggies7]

Good start to the career. Forever in the history books.

Only 19,000 players all time have reached the bigs

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

That was Wheeler pitching the top of the 8th inning yesterday afternoon, right?

[Danchat]

It's good to see Wheeler have a nice first inning in the majors.

[Danchat]

I can't imagine how his family would react to him blowing a 6 run lead in his first MLB appearance!

[70charger]

I like seeing Wheeler's family. Anyone remember when Rosario's family was there for his first game, and he goes and hits a home run right away? That was probably my favorite.

[LaBombo]

 

Mr Bremer is starting to sound disgusted.

 

The creeping onset of a seventh straight year of irrelevance can tax even the most diehard company man.

[Riverbrian]

So what changed?

 

Wheeler is OK down by 3 but not up by 6

 

Molitor realized his mistake yesterday?

 

Falvey pointed out his mistake yesterday?

 

Molitor just can't throw another inning of his guys?

 

Molitor doesn't care anymore?

He toes the line of whining. And I do enough of that for all of us

Agree? Like? Concur?
