Walks in baseball or on the beach, with a beautiful woman in the prime of her life?

I think Billy Beane would be rather fond of both.

[rwilfong86]

Huge strikeout there.

Sonny Gray doing his best to restore the "average length of game" to previous levels.

I left two different Gray starts in TF last season because I was so annoyed with his pace of play. 

[jkcarew]

Gray doing his best Jake Odorizzi impression. Absolutely petrified to throw the ball over the plate. 60 pitches to get through 3 innings. That'll show Rocco!!

[mrtwinsfan]

Hey Sonny,  your not helping your comment about pitching deeper , and you had a 7  pitch 1st inning

[RickOShea]

The guy from I Love You Man, is yelling at gray from the stands, "rate of play", "rate of play", "rate of play"!

Sonny might not see the fifth. 

His track record after pontificating on starters going deep into the game has not been good, to date.

[USAFChief]

[RickOShea]

There was a Twins starter named Gray

Who bothered Brock Beauchamp one day.

  He fiddled and dithered

  Brock's interest withered

Because of the pace of play.

I don't think going yard means what you think it means.

[mrtwinsfan]

 Miguel Gallo  or  Joey Sano,   ?   im so Confused

[ashbury]

Urshela would have had that one.

Joel Sanallo

[USAFChief]

Once that runner stops, toss it to second for the force. Then a rundown on the stopped runner.

[USAFChief]

WHIP is totally overrated.

[ashbury]

Professional middle infield play, there

Is Sano working Security at the wome's dressing room at Daytons?

You tell me.

[RickOShea]

I'd rather not.

 

[cHawk]

Does this team ever bunt?

[stringer bell]

I was speculating that Franmill Reyes has become what Sanó became. He’s going to hit some long homers, maybe in AAA, but he “can be pitched to”.

Why bunt and screw it up, when you can pop up, instead.

[cHawk]

Jordan Lyles is a bad pitcher.

[RickOShea]

We seem to have the uncanny ability to make another team's scrub starter look like cyrus Young.
