    A Rod is 5 for 9 off Perkins with 1 HR. Hang onto your butts.
  2. DaveW
    Why is Escobar even in the game is my question.
  3. DaveW
    Uhhhhhh why are you letting Robinson hit here instead of Rosario?
  4. DaveW
    Escobar sucks, that inning never should have gotten that far if he has any range.
  5. DaveW
    Over/under on twins runs off him tonight: 4.5 What say you?
  6. DaveW
    O day won't be the best RP traded, wieters value has dropped a ton, I don't think it would take much to get him. Wieters or AJ as a 50/50 split with Suzuki would be ideal IMO
  7. DaveW
    Hitters are always going to hit worse, make worse contact when it's a 0-2,1-2 or 2-2 pitchers count.
  8. DaveW
    CC seems to take offense to such actions, I would just avoid it, versus having that fat turd throw at Mauer or Sano's heads.
  9. DaveW
    How about they just stop bunting? They seem to be pretty inefficient across the board.
  10. DaveW
    He has a lot of guys in 0-2, 1-2 and 2-2 counts, more often than not those will always result in outs, with Rosario/Hicks in the OF, I'm not worried about him as long as he keeps it in the park. His K/BB rate is over 6.00 currently, that alone helps a ton. When you have an elite bb/9 rate, you don't need some great K rate to be legit.
  11. DaveW
    While yes it was, I don't see the comparison here at all, as mentioned, his BB rate was over 6 times what it is now. Almost 3 walks more per 9. Also Hughes only pitched 74 innings that year and missed over half the season on the DL. When you have the best walk rate in the league, I'm not going to get to worried about the K rate when he is putting up some really good results, when you aren't walking guys that means you are in pitchers counts most of the time, when you are in pitchers counts most of the time that means there will be more soft hit balls. If hughes just finds a way to limit the HR ball, or those numbers continue to regress to the mean, we are looking at a Brad Rake type (but slightly better) who could be solid for us come playoff time.

    Scotland is amazing, what part did you visit?
  13. DaveW
    I think Kazmir is awesome, but he is always a ticking time bomb, and one pitcher like him probably adds only 2 wins tops the rest of the year for them. The Twins, even as streaky as they have been, have been outplaying (winning) more than the Astros the past several weeks (month)
  14. DaveW
    Using tonight as a sample size I would say 480 is the more accurate number.
  15. DaveW
    Dozier hits far.
  16. DaveW
    I hate to say it, but maybe it would have been best if the Royals would have won? The Stro's are a wild card contender with us.
  17. DaveW
    In 2011 his BB rate was also over 6 times greater.
  18. DaveW
    Nice to see Rosario have a real nice game as well, seems like he was scuffling a bit lately, 3 doubles will certainly help turn things around.
  19. DaveW
    How many HR could one expect out of a 3-4-5 lineup next year of Sano, Dozier and Plouffe? 100?
  20. DaveW
    Nice bomb!
  21. DaveW
    That's why I said "if" it wasn't 5/6-0.
  22. DaveW
    Last 7 starts: 48 IP, ,46 H, 3BB, 1.02 WHIP. 2.44 ERA 6 wins, 1 loss. Looking. Good!
  23. DaveW
    That wasn't really a bad pitch as much as it was a "good pitch".
  24. DaveW
    If it wasn't a 5-0 game you bring in the LOOGY Rourke there I suppose?
  25. DaveW
    Hopefully that jump starts Hunter, for better or worse he is likely our starting RF the rest of the year and hitting high in the order. Can't help but think maybe the day off helped him?
