    Outman can’t hit, but defense matters… perfect example of a run that shouldn’t have been and unfortunately for Bradley it could give him the loss.
  2. hitterscount
    Said it earlier today in another thread…. if there is anyone you should move it would be Buxton …. solo homers and not being available is what you can count on…..
  3. hitterscount
    A weak fly ball that drops, not sure what Roden was looking at….terrible jump on that ball.
  4. hitterscount
    I don’t know him, but why did Buxton? Maybe giving up a little $$$ to stay in the city you have been in for years and not uprooting your family has some value…. maybe not, but Jeffers is a top tier C and team leader, I personally would pay him before extending a pitcher, much like Milwaukee and Conterras.

    About 2, maybe 3, in 10 top minor league prospects for any organization end up making any significant impact on their MLB teams. If we were a legit playoff contender I would hold on to Jeffers, I just don’t think we are, however, am still be inclined to hold onto to him through the season and hopefully a playoff series. What type of contract is he expected to sign for? Is there any chance he re-signs for a bargain being we drafted and developed him… I know he has a no trade clause, but Buxton would be the guy I would like to see moved….. would probably get some decent prospects in return for the often injured CF.

    The defensive stats might be similar, but Larnach is getting to balls that Wallner never could. Larnachs defense is improving. , however I am not mistaken him as a gold glover…. when you throw in batting there is no comparison, Larnach hands down the better player.
  7. hitterscount
    Wallner is not a legit corner outfielder.... period. No explanation needed.... trading Larnach and replacing him with Wallner is a terrible plan. I don't have an issue of moving either player because of the reasons listed , there are current options to stay competitive, but Wallner isn't one of them.
  8. hitterscount
    That’s a double…. the scoring judges are a joke.
  9. hitterscount
    Not sure that he took anything away from Jeffers there, seemed pretty routine.
  10. hitterscount
    Wont be able to watch the game, catching a ACDC concert 40 years later than I would have liked but better than never, need to cut back on the walks, play better defense and run the bases like a MLB team….. basically sound fundamental baseball. A series win would be great, but getting back to clean baseball and back to.500 and hanging in the postseason hunt will keep the rest of the season fun.
  11. hitterscount
    If Bell scores Caratini is at 3rd and Lee on second… takes the DP out of the equation which they would happily give up a run for the 2 outs.
  12. hitterscount
    💯, should have been between 2nd and 3rd and able to walk in once the ball hit the ground.
  13. hitterscount
    First game I have watched in nearly 2 weeks…. sitting at .500 had me feeling I missed some good baseball, this was not a clean game. From walks, dropped ball by Keaschall that’s ruled a triple to running yourself out of a potential big inning. Should of been 6-3 with runners on 2nd and 3 with no one out. Brutal base running by Bell. Get after it tomorrow and back to .500
  14. hitterscount
    WTF is that… bush league.
  15. hitterscount
    This might be his last inning.... didn't give the team a chance.
  16. hitterscount
    My counter to your point is Milwaukee will draw over three million this season. Most games Ive watched this season there aren’t 10,000 people in the park. Winning matters, consistency matters we aren’t there.
  17. hitterscount
    Our frugal spending will not change, so the question becomes when to trade Ryan. As long as the team is in contention for a postseason bid I would hold on to him and make the move this winter. But the bottom line is I wouldn’t pony up the cash that would be needed to extend him…. he’s earned it, but you can’t have that type of money he’s going to get tied to one player.
  18. hitterscount
    Ryan's last start was a prime example of what bad defense can do for the team and the pitcher. A hard hit ball at Lewis, literally at him, not sure how it didn't hit him, not only doesn't he make the turn for a DP to end the inning, he doesn't get a glove on it and it's ruled a base hit. Instead of Ryan being out of the inning at 12-13 pitches no runs allowed he goes on to throw 25 more pitches and gives up 5ER's and is knocked out. This team gives away too many outs, doesn't make many really good plays and the starting rotation pays the price. At times I am in awe of a nice defensive play when those types of plays is what you should expect. Yes errors happen, but overall I hope we get back to a philosophy of above average defense, putting the ball in play and team speed..... with that said, they have exceeded my expectations for the season.... not that I'm buyers at the trade deadline, but they for the most part have been entertaining.
  19. hitterscount
    The mistakes cost Ryan 5 earned runs when it should’ve been a clean inning…. this is pro Leeis’ whiff wasn’t a tough play.. Carantini not challenging a strike to end the inning would have ended the inning.
  20. hitterscount
    Except it would have been a strike….
  21. hitterscount
    You’re kidding i hope. Lewis botches a inning ending DP and Carantini sits on the 3rd strike to end the inning.
  22. hitterscount
    This inning is classic Twins baseball, just a joke on defense and Carantini not challenging a strike to end the inning…. Who pays, the SP. Trade Ryan to a team that can play the right way.
  23. hitterscount
    None of this is on Ryan… should have been out of the inning 15 pitches ago without a run….
  24. hitterscount
    WTF Carantini, use the challenge
  25. hitterscount
    Royce having a rough inning… so bad there it’s ruled a hit…. the standard where if you don’t touch the ball it’s a hit is really dumb.
