Fun with numbers: Kyle Farmer's OBP was .268 coming into that PH appearance. Which is, believe it or not, higher than his SLG.

 

Love ya Farmer , but its time to start a post Baseball career ,  and let Austin Martin play 2b  where he belongs , and let Julien and Martin Decide who plays

More fun with numbers: With that AB, Vazquez's OPS is now back below .400.

 

Meaner fun with numbers

It's an odd game but here's Alcala into his second inning, guess Rocco can't help but see another long reliever beside Sands.

[USAFChief]

Alcala can lose command, but it's pretty curious why he was ever down in St Paul this year, isn't it? 

Has to be more to the story.

Farmer 24 percent K rate; Julien 39 percent K rate, keep Farmer and send Julien to learn how to bat.

Sure glad Rocco found a way to get Manny Margot into the game so I could post more fun with numbers: Margot's OPS now sub-.500

There is always a way to get Margot in a game

I bet his arms would be proportionately longer, too.

Not Necessarily.

Texas won with another two-two-two twain.

I think we have different problems if that is the case.

 

But it does remind me of an old xmas t-shirt i got with a line drawing illustrating why "T-Rex hates pop flies."

Don't agree with PH Krilloff and Larnach.  Jeffers could be used with runners on and Margot should never PH for a power bat.when the Twins are down 4

Margot should never have been on the team.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

So, the goal is to score more runs than outs during our half of the inning.

Rocco i think  likes to read the game threads and sits back Laughing at us cause no one knows why , i wonder if he even does

Yeah, the Twins only have 3 hits and Margot made all the other outs.

Twins performing at about expectation. Although my blood pressure could do without the extreme highs and low. 
 

KC and Cle have to regress to mean at some point, right? How long can they keep winning at a .600 clip?

No.  He shouldnt be on the team because he is of no value to the team.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Oh well...

Game over.

Closer to .667 clip.  Just need to hang close cause that cant last.

As soon as Margot is announced, Bochy immediately counters with a RH. You know its not a good move but you still stand by decision. Besides he ph for Larnach who was 0-1 with 2 BB. Who would you rather have at the plate?

I agree it makes little sense to put Margot in at that point.

Guardians won again. Not sure how they keep winning but no signs of slowing down and the Rockies up next for them. Twins more likely to grab the wildcard than they are win the division.
