Believe it or not, that's what Happ prefers

 

Interesting. Seems like something I would have previously known. 

 

What a doofus though, sounds like something only a hick from ......(checks the internet)...... Wait, he went to Northwestern!?!?!

Happ is like the LeRoy Hoard of starting pitchers.

 

With LeRoy if you needed him to get 3 yards, he'll get you 3 yards. If you need him to get 4 yards, he'll get 3 yards.

 

Same with Happ, need him to get 4 2/3 innings, he'll get you 4 2/3 innings. If you need him to get 7 innings, he'll get you 4 2/3 innings.

Blame it on the "blood thinners".

Unless I missed one, Happ finished with 4 swings and misses.

 

You missed a lot.  As previously stated, every time a hitter fouls a pitch off with zero or one strikes, it is a swinging strike.

 

You erred by only counting swings and misses.

Bill O'Brien. Former Houston Texans head coach.

 

I think Rocco is much more likely to be the reverse Bill O'Brien.  O'Brien was a really good coach, who was terrible at building a team.  The current Twins are pretty good at team building, but just terrible in game situations.

Rocco is going to take over the GM position, and then trade Buxton away for peanuts?!

I agree. The Twins are terrible in game situations under Baldelli.
