    Rocco's just preparing to unleash the Wallinator in the later stages of the game!

    Guessing, or did you see something stated?

    My mistake. He scored a run (after leading off an inning with a walk) and drove a run in (sac fly later). No actual hits.

    Larnach played a rehab game in Ft Myers yesterday and got some hits, FWIW.

    Willi Castro at SS, Kyle Farmer at 3B, Austin Martin in CF. Just like they planned it in the off-season.

    Good. I hate batting averages when they are empty.

    When I look at league-wide splits and they are as narrow as that, it makes me wonder if putting up with a guy that has a high platoon split is even worth the bother on average. And it especially makes me question the Twins' apparent strategy to load up on left-handed hitters - the upside doesn't look as high as I thought.

    You should seek out a second medical opinion. Ask your cat's vet what the research is on the harm to the cat.

    Don't let him see the definition of Fielding Error either, since there is reference in it to "ordinary effort".

    The Twins went 19-13 in the games Pablo Lopez started last season. The Dodgers went 29-12 in the games Sandy Koufax started in 1966. I think that's the stat you're looking for, and you might as well add them up through the career for the 300-game winners that you want.

    Their owner periodically disposing of all their main major league talent, plunging the team into years of futility, predates their arrival in Oakland.

    A long, long journey for him, fulfilled at last. He gets to tell his grandson someday, "I was a major leaguer." I don't get to tell my grandson that.

    Three runs, six hits? LOL no. Sounds like a fun game, which I had to miss due to other commitments, but let's tap the brakes a little on this offensive "outburst."

    Insane Julien Passivity?
  15. ashbury
    Great stop, sure. And I admire the "find the pony somewhere in the pile" mentality tonight. Whee, a solo HR.

    I'm a little hard pressed to call it great when he fails to finish it, the way he did.
  17. ashbury
    He's no Robbie Grossman, I'll tell you that.

    Jeffers with the passed ball on a high but not very high pitch. A little bit of everything by now; the Bingo card is filling up.
  19. ashbury
    Clean inning from Sands. Little late, but this needs to happen more.
  20. ashbury
    You had a freshman year. Lucky.

    Pretty sure the cash they give the Mets would not have purchased even one start from the front-line pitcher we wanted.

    Maybe to a large degree our disagreement is over what "is" versus what "should be". Further nuance as to maintaining authority could be a good discussion for the next time I see you at AFL or wherever.

    The key is to get your point across without "showing up" Blue. Make your point, get some satisfaction maybe. But show up Blue, fuggedaboutit. A bit of a fine art, but also common sense, and I think most folks who work between the lines figure things out. Of course this is only my own opinion, from the outside looking in.
  24. ashbury
    I don't mostly disagree, but I'm a little surprised at the line you draw here. Umpires controlling their domain is as old as the game itself. Treat the ump with respect and you'll get a fairly called game. Show up the ump in any of various ways, expect a few calls to go against you. Players catch on fast, to this system - the smart ones anyway. This is about as far away from the analytical side of the spectrum as you can get, but to my own surprise (a bit) I don't get too worked up about this. Live And Don't Learn, Mr. Wallner.

    This is the Pohlads' kind of player! All five tools: Gouge, Skim, Scam, Redline, and Foreclose! He can truly do it all.
