  1. Breaking out his plate discipline by time frames (and I only have these stats because he is my adopted prospect) - in his first 8 games he had 1 walk and 10 strikeouts. In the past 2 weeks he has 9 walks and 10 strikeouts without any significant dropoff in power so he is trending better.
  2. Thanks for the big shift - nice hitting Dozier
  3. how about 2 bloops and a Sano bomb
  4. There is the grounder we were looking for - nice DP
  5. The inning that won't end - didn't Gibson used to be a ground ball pitcher with his sinker working?
  6. Suspect defense all around - hesitating on the throw home
  7. Wow - Vargas killed that one!
  8. Pitch framing did not work on ball3
  9. Mr. Rogers is dependable at least.
  10. Granite has yet another chance...
  11. Colon - your classic #2 starter or the start of #2?
  12. Good play by Polanco there.
  13. Next pitcher up? Dillon Gee threw 7 shutout innings tonight at Rochester. Has yet to give up a run in 15 innings.
  14. Brent Rooker weekly update for Jul 3-9th: Rooker had a nice week - hopefully a sign he is settling in. In 30 plate appearances, he had 9 hits including 2 HR and 2 doubles so continuing to show good power. Strike zone management was also improved as he walked 4 times and had 5 K's. Batted .360 for the week with a .433 OBP and he also had a Stolen base. Brent played LF in 6 of the games and DH'd once.

  15. Say this about Granite he will give the pitcher a battle - would make a nice leadoff hitter if he shows he can hit at this level.
  16. Spotting Baltimore some runs again.
  17. YTD update for Rooker through Sunday. So far he has played in 8 games - playing LF in 5 and DHing the other 3. In 34 AB he has 8 hits, 1 BB and 10K's - so striking out approximately 30% of the time which is slightly concerning K/BB ratio - most if not all the K's have been of the swinging variety so he is an aggressive swinger. Of the 8 hits, 4 are for extra bases - 3 HR and 1 Double . Attaching a link to his stats for those interested in more detail: http://www.milb.com/player/index.jsp?sid=milb&player_id=667670#/career/R/hitting/2017/ALL He did have the gap when we went out to LA for the Golden Spikes award and has been a little sluggish since coming back from that so hopefully he will settle in and have a better week.
  18. In case anyone is wondering why Rooker has been out of the lineup yesterday and today - he is attending the Golden Spikes Award Ceremony in Los Angeles. Looks like he will miss the next couple of games. http://web.usabaseball.com/article.jsp?ymd=20170119&content_id=236403700&vkey=news_gsa https://www.facebook.com/HailStateBB/photos/pcb.1778067312208431/1778066408875188/?type=3&theater
  19. In honor of this sweep - I will make a 3 chicken dinner tonight.
  20. Rooker played LF in Saturday's game - attaching a link which adds some insight on his perspective https://www.milb.com/milb/news/twins-first-rounder-brent-rooker-hits-first-homer-on-4-for-5-night/c-238581764/t-185364810
  21. What a difference a week makes - maybe the teams want to trade home ball parks.
  22. 4th time to see Bauer and we did better against him - nice win on the road. Good to see the pitching results of Mejia, Duffey, Rogers and Hildenberger. Kluber vs Gibson today? Yikes - where is my lucky rabbit's foot
