  1. Well, Mrs Ash says she's ready for bed. I think I'll go to bed anyway. Good night, all.
  2. In the record books as First Player Ever To Strike Out On A Pickoff Attempt.
  3. She would be better off just going to a showing of Sausage Party.
  4. Now now, we have a few young'uns in the game threads; let's not mislead them about Reddy Kilowatt. TD has an educational mandate to fulfill.
  5. Batter is swinging late on Chargois's off-speed stuff. Knows what's coming?
  6. Shaggy! I need to get to bed soon, but I wanna watch this guy.
  7. Tweren't CF speed in RF on the next batter, neither.
  8. That isn't CF speed we've got there in LF tonight.
  9. Political humor belongs in the Sports Bar forum area.
  10. If that were the case Pelfrey would have been a Cy candidate every season.
  11. We suffer a real dearth of experts on this subject at this site, otherwise I think someone would kindly set you straight on it real quick-like. Mrs Ash, for instance, but I can't persuade her to get a login here.
  12. It's possible. I'm no good at looking for signs of it, are you? I've chalked it up to his command. The curve sometimes stops biting, the fastball doesn't go where he aims it, the slider is so far outside it won't tempt even some team's Rosario clone.
  13. Good news, if any: Sano doesn't make the play either. Maybe Polanco does though? Escobar? (Nunez? )
  14. Zuke's calling a good inning this inning, IMO. Comes down to Gibby executing the pitches they have agreed on; he sometimes isn't close, and Zuke has ceased calling for the curve as far as I've noticed. And then Perez gets a damn flare. Sometimes you do things right and it doesn't work out.
  15. Smart at bat against Morales. "If you walk him you walk him" is hell on the pitch count though.
  16. There was a note somewhere that Sano's throwing elbow is sore, so they are taking it easy on him. Now, if Escobar instead of Plouffe is your preference, this information isn't pertinent; but then the choice is not strategic either.
  17. That DP ball hit to Polanco, which didn't get turned, might be the kind of thing that counts against him if indeed the jury is still out on him at SS. Just a momentary hesitation to toss it to Dozier, who in turn had to hesitate because the incoming runner was so close. Game of inches.
  18. Gibson's command of his pitches just comes and goes. Right now it's ebb tide again.
  19. Turns out Plouffe has the same first and middle names as Jeter. Pasta, and Diving.
  20. The team we trade him to this off-season will be counting on it.
  21. Thank you, I won't let it go to my head. I just ... heywaitaminnit, that's a Princess Bride reference. Prepare to die.
  22. If it's still August, you have tons of minor league ball - Good Seats Still Available! Cedar Rapids is natural because of the Twins connection, but other choices exist. I am fond of third base side seating at Quad Cities: http://www.milb.com/images/2010/03/25/YJdPanuL.jpg Just make sure it's not flood season, as the outfield is a few feet above the river. http://chicago.barstoolsports.com/files/2014/07/Screen-Shot-2014-07-08-at-4.08.39-PM.png http://bloximages.chicago2.vip.townnews.com/qctimes.com/content/tncms/assets/v3/editorial/5/4c/54c631c6-5cfb-515e-8b5c-1633de7b7360/54c631c6-5cfb-515e-8b5c-1633de7b7360.preview-300.jpg
