  1. K’s are the least of his offensive issues. His K rate is below league average…one of few on the team that at least can say that.
  2. Umpire with a plane to catch.
  3. The win is that he’ll be better than MAT offensively. But will he be?
  4. But when is it ok to say Kepler’s having a good year? I know 110 OPS+ is nothing to write home about for a corner outfielder…but, you can win with it, it’s decent, and light years better than last season.
  5. Or maybe that pitch 5 inches off the plate will be a strike all night.
  6. The umpire did everything he could.
  7. Well, technically he struck a 94mph fastball with his hands. 😉
  8. X-rays negative…contusion…looks like no IL stint. At least until after he sits about 6 games.
  9. Note to Jhoan… THROW YOUR BLEEPING FASTBALL!
  10. I’m guessing Farmer had not been in the tunnel taking swings?? Practice is overrated.
  11. Force of habit. He forgot Julien was the DH tonight.
  12. Fastballs and change ups to get ahead…sweeper to finish! who knew the sweeper would work better when the first one the batter sees is when he already has two strikes!!??!
  13. Rocco was counting on one hand the number of innings remaining, and on the other hand relievers he’s willing to put into a tight game.
  14. It was an HR, which has been an issue, obviously. Otherwise dominated, though.
  15. Figures…there are a lot of shores in Central America
  16. Wow…I thought they might have finished last in the late 80’s early 90’s…had to have come close…those clubs were bad.
  17. Someone that points out the obvious. Obviously!
  18. But when was the last time the Yankees finished last in their division?
  19. I do think the team stacks up better for a playoff scenario than it has in recent past. Winning a game or series is more likely. Having said that, it doesn’t mean a series win is LIKELY…just more likely than the completely overmatched pitching in past series has rendered. And it’s going to have to be the starting pitching that does it. Not likely that the bullpen or lineup suddenly pull rabbits out of their hats…not in a scenario of more than a couple games, anyway.
  20. Then again, when the deadline acquisition bar is Sam Dyson and Jorge Lopez… Floro looks a little like Mariano Rivera
  21. Add “I wanted Pagan to go two innings” to the list of things I never thought I’d say.
  22. Lewis, Buxton, and Kirilloff…. we’ve named three…all three of whom 100-120 games played is looking like a healthy season. Maybe Lewis and Kirilloff can flip that narrative, but I think that ship has sailed with Buxton.
  23. Have you seen the tracker? With a Twin at the plate, Twins fans would expect that to be called a ball 100% of the time. It was a huge break. Breaks happen. Twins did plenty enough to deserve the win regardless.
