Let’s steal another one

And i have been chastised for paraphrasing it by friends before...

 

I was more concerned with sosillyputty

Filed under early 9th inning predictions:  Jeffers for the win tie

I liked Morneau saying man if you're ever going to lay down a bunt to beat the shift I can't think of a better time to get the tying run on base.

C'mon Jeffers!

[Craig Arko]

 

That's Eddie. The good, the bad, and the ugly. Sometimes all in the same game.

There’s two kinds of left fielders. Those who know the rules and those who dig.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Oh well, that's the game.

 

Thanks for the company.

 

Gave us a lot to complain about, didn't it?

Cave showed us last night that he can’t bunt

Smeltzer is not a major league pitcher

He should have long gone.

The play that had the most negative effect was Eddie running through the stop sign and getting thrown out at home with no outs. The Non ground rule double ended up being a moot point

I agree, except you can't excuse  Rosario's non-playing of a ball in play, just because of subsequent events.

 

Later being "moot" is unkown and irrelevant at the time.

I’m not excusing Rosario at all. I’m just saying the bigger mistake was getting to thrown out at home. Rosario didn’t lose the game for the Twins all on his own. The bullpen was terrible

I know I’m jumping into this thread late, but Baldelli is an idiot! Ok-one run down-2 outs in the 8th-we still have 6 AB’s left, and our manager brings in our worst pitcher?? What the hell is he thinking?

Now game would be tied. Hope this doesn’t come back to screw us out of the playoffs!

Smeltzer has been bad all season. He should not been on the team.
