I struggle with this provus/span connection

I prefer 3 people in the booth. Especially when Span is in the booth.

Doesn’t matter, the twins are not a serious franchise. I actually hope this implodes here.

I was thinking that too until I realized it doesn't matter.  No matter how many indefensible idiotic decisions Bullpen Burner Baldelli makes it just doesn't matter.  They already extended him through 2026.  He isn't going anywhere.  Dude's bullet proof.

[Patzky]

Here's a good substitution IMHO.. Royce for Wallner.

It will be interesting to have Plouffe, Perkins, and Morneau broadcast next week's game without Corey. Morneau becomes too analytical and I see the others poking fun at him.

Miami is drawing crowds about the same size as an SEC D1 baseball team. Incredible actually when one considers the size of their metro area and the history of baseball in that region.

The Panthers cut into their beach time enough the way it was enroute to their Stanley Cup victory.

Whether or not it "works" isn't the point.

Its just bad management. And it's a recurring theme.

Driving drunk and getting home safe doesn't make it a good decision. 

 

Exactly.

5 and fly for Baldelli.

I wouldn't have been surprised if Rocco pulled  him after 50 pitches

And the league wants to expand when it should actually contract or relocate teams. Marlins have won 8 in a row and it sounds like a library in the park. They’d be on the chopping block near the top of the list.

Hope this works. The look on Sim's and Ryan's faces in the dugout was telling.

Add in Durans comment last year the "he's just an employee here" and I think we know how the pitchers feel about Rocco.

I have zero idea how they feel but I know what I would say/think.

The Miami batters looked surprised. The Twins escaped though.

Looks like Lewis and Jeffers have this guy timed, now to do something.

I prefer Plouffe.  If Bert still lives in FL he should  do a game or two when they play down there

I hope they don't win another game with baldelli here. Not joking.

Like Lewis is gonna steal.

Swing at a missile.

Substitutions aplenty

Very much agree....Plouffe's work with Jonboy media is also great

DH so he can go back on the shelf.

[AceWrigley]

France is due for a big fly.

[tony&rodney]

Straws. Grasping at straws. One will work.

We could all hope, but I think both Bert and Dick were pushed out earlier than they wanted to go so I don't see either one coming back into the booth.

I'm hoping at some point Plouffe makes a "Poindexter" reference regarding Justin

[Patzky]

Don't make Royce Run!
