    No, you didn't, but the poster I responded to - and the post you quoted - made/refuted that exact point.
  2. Brock Beauchamp
    Sure, he's been terrible. He also has all of 55 games under his belt, split over two seasons.
  3. Brock Beauchamp
    Sure, my point wasn't that Buxton will become Trout - I hate that comparison - my point was that even some of the best players in history struggled out of the gate. Implying a front office has failed because prospects struggle to immediately acclimate to MLB is a ridiculous assertion to make. If an elite prospect struggles over 750 PAs, that's an entirely different argument.
  4. Brock Beauchamp
    I'm not making excuses for this 0-9 start - it has been abysmal - but the most complete player I've ever seen play the game of baseball was demoted after his first taste of MLB pitching produced less-than-stellar results. Young players sometimes have to be sent back down, even the immensely talented ones. It's just a reality of baseball.
  5. Brock Beauchamp
    That's what I'm hoping will happen. It makes sense to me.
  6. Brock Beauchamp
    Tonkin probably slides into Pressly's role. It makes sense for a few reasons: - Rogers is used to longer outings and is stretched out - This gets Tonkin into more games in his traditional one inning role, making it easier for the Twins to gauge his performance or lack thereof - The second point makes it easier to either trust or waive Tonkin, making room for another young guy
  7. Brock Beauchamp
    Oh, not arguing whether it makes sense, only stating that it likely doesn't matter.
  8. Brock Beauchamp
    Well, they had a day off so it shouldn't matter. Everyone should be ready to go. But yeah, why this morning?
  9. Brock Beauchamp
    Yeah, that was pretty much my point. I didn't use leverage situations because May spent so many innings as a starter but in case people are interested... High leverage: .713 Med leverage: .761 Low leverage: .763 It seems to me May has done just fine with the game on the line.
  10. Brock Beauchamp
    As evidenced by May holding opponents to a .581 OPS in close and late situations last season?
  11. Brock Beauchamp
    If I continue watching this game, my television is not long for the earth.
  12. Brock Beauchamp
    Well, he hit a homer. So, without looking, I'm guessing "one".
  13. Brock Beauchamp
    It's pretty rad how the Twins' #2 hitter is hitting damned near .400 and has 2 RBI.
  14. Brock Beauchamp
    Jesus. Just throw the ball to the plate, Ryan.
  15. Brock Beauchamp
    At this point, I'd settle for no bunts when one guy is on base and two runs are needed. We can deal with pinch-hitting once we've mastered the bunting thing.
  16. Brock Beauchamp
    That play is colloquially known as the Punto Special. I saw Punto do it many times. Pitchers knew when the guy was going to bunt and would throw the ball neck-high. Undaunted by this unexpected challenge, Punto would bunt anyway... And pop it to the pitcher.
  17. Brock Beauchamp
    Oh, I had the honor of catching the replay.
  18. Brock Beauchamp
    He's actually has a pretty good game. Drilled the ball in his first PA, had the misfortune of hitting it right at somebody.
  19. Brock Beauchamp
    I'm really disappointed I missed the Suzuki bunt because I love bunting.
  20. Brock Beauchamp
    It's astounding.
  21. Brock Beauchamp
    Oh, **** it. Just run, Joe. There is literally NOTHING to lose with this offense.
  22. Brock Beauchamp
    Trevor was winking at a girl in the stands. Or maybe it was a guy. That's cool, too.
  23. Brock Beauchamp
    Well said.
  24. Brock Beauchamp
    Man, the ump sure is flipping that coin quickly and subtlely. I can't even catch him doing it.
  25. Brock Beauchamp
    Of course that was a strike. It didn't bounce. Seriously, this ump is all over the damned place.
