Sorry for late reply Blake.  Audra talks ALOT!!  Just got home...those TV people just don't stop talking.

But did you wear the shades so you could give her the "eye" without her noticing?

Sano, Mauer and Kepler are good players. They are not clutch players like Rosario and Escobar. Rosario and Escobar can really make a difference in the game.

How is Mauer not clutch? I really don't get the Sano opinions on this site.

Late to the party, but just want to register my bi-weekly rant about Molitor's pitching decisions.

 

Can someone explain why Littel was still in the game to give up the 5th and 6th runs??

MOY?

It was clear to me he was trying to milk one more inning out of Littell to try and take the load off the bullpen. It wasn't a good call, but he certainly wasn't helped out by Magill immediately giving up a triple.

Because: Molitor

 

It's all I've got.

Split.

 

Flexibility is good, i guess.

 

But i prefer winning.

 

Need to drop hats more often.

Maybe someone else will have a better take, but, I think Molitor did okay with the bullpen in the double header. The bullpen isn't completely wiped out and should be okay for the rest of the series. No, the second game didn't turn out like it should have, but, to be fair, the Twins only scored 3 and the Sox had 4 in the first inning.

Apparently Littell is not even close to be ready. I wonder how he got promoted to AAA with an ERA of 5.87 at AA. I think Littell's ceiling is Trevor May.

I can't help but feel like Falvine let their ego cause us to kick away a winnable game tonight. No guarantee we win with Slegers, but he certainly would have given us a better chance.

I wonder how they could see Littell can have any success in the big league right now with an ERA of 5.87 at AA.
