  1. They also had a very good run in 2015. I don’t particularly care for Molitor but I have no idea if he’s a good manager. His numbers have been equally over- and under-whelming. It’s not fair to point out the bad as his fault and say he isn’t responsible for the good. Personally, I wouldn’t have resigned him.
  2. Yeah, it’s all nebulous and intertwined. My greater point is that you don’t fire a manager who had a good season after one bad month. If you had no confidence in Molitor, you don’t re-up him last offseason.* *and I would have been totally fine with that
  3. Like I said, really weird to turn around Esco so Kepler can face a righty.
  4. Really strange to pull your lefty to turn around Esco and then leave a righty in against Kepler.
  5. When pretty much everyone predicts your team to have a win total in the 70s and you end the season in the mid 80s with a postseason berth, one can comfortably say they exceeded expectations.
  6. Half watching and only caught the second one and said “that was a strike?” Then FoxTrax showed it clearly wasn’t.
  7. That’s what I love about Mauer. He has a bull**** strike called on him and then takes the identical pitch to left field.
  8. Yep, saw the same thing. Dunno why Kepler broke for home there.
  9. Ditto. Make ‘em earn it. We’ve seen baseball for years. The frequency at which an outfielder can throw it directly to the plate is alarmingly low.
  10. I’m not ready to write off Castro. He was just fine last season.
  11. Getting singles that don’t result in runs doesn’t make up for giving up several runs behind the plate. I’m not that down on Garver overall but he’s been a butcher this game.
  12. Good to see the other guys can look incompetent, too.
  13. Why is everyone assuming that “overperformed” means “overperformed their talent level” and not “overperformed expectations”? The word on its own does not imply luck unless you infer it. There are ways to overperform that don’t involve the negative.
  14. Then break the shift. I will never understand why baseball teams chase their own tail so often.
  15. Yeah, true. I didn’t notice where the runner on third was though.
  16. Okay, I take that back. Sorry, Mitch. That was the right thing to do.
  17. Ugh. I can’t believe how much bad play we’ve seen on defense this season.
  18. Cool story. I’m not a Millennial and you completely misunderstood my post.
  19. You don’t fire a guy for having one bad month after his team overperformed for an entire season.
  20. Excellent. I’m surprised to see Romero jump so many other candidates but I’m not going to complain about it.
