I'm resigned to hoping if Lindor Steals Garver just throws back to Odorizzi...skip the pump fake and most definitely don't throw through

How does Odorizzi burn through so many pitches?? He only had like 2 walks and no K's?? It's just amazing how his pitch counts get so high all of the time.

#24 always been kind of a sacred number, mainly cuz of Willy Mays, and less so Griffey Jr.

 

Seeing Logan Forsythe take the number caused curiosity, especially seeing LaMarre had it earlier this season.

 

Notable Twin #24s, in my order of importance for my enjoyment:

 

1. Willie Norwood

2. Shane Mack

3. Tom Brunansky

4. Soup Campbell

5. Trevor Plouffe

6. Mike Lamb

 

 

Others include Matt Lecroy, Rondell White, Ricardo Ingram, Jaime Garcia, and going back to the 50's and the Senators, the immortal Bunky Stewart.

It still kinda bums me out that May didn't get more opportunity as a starter before we moved him to the pen. On the bright side though, I think he has the potential to be a solid setup guy or high leverage reliever, and I really hope he reaches that potential.

He was struggling big time in AAA as a starter... I always liked him as a starter more, but signs were on the wall that he wasn't going to do very well as a starter this season.

I should've specified, I more meant prior to his injury, when we first moved him to the pen. No surprise at all that he's pitching out of the pen on the big league club this season.

This one got me googlin' a bit.

 

 

17 wins in in '76 without a start made. Tony Fiore is jealous.
