    Your schtick is getting old.

    Caught another one. Ha! Edit: I'm just playing around, not trying to be dickish.

    I also agree with this. Look at that, I look unoriginal because of the posts both before AND after mine!

    Interesting idea. My wife is out of town. Maybe I'll experiment with this and see if I can get jam-shots to work. If I'm even less coherent than normal tonight, that'll be why.

    After all the posts above me, I'm going to sound unoriginal. I don't think Parmelee long term is competing for a job against Arcia. Ideally, you don't sit either one because they have to play and develop. At the very least, there will very likely be transactions in the middle of this year that will render this discussion moot, and as much as I hate to think about it, the fact that it's only been about a week tells me that the mid-year transactions may not ultimately be what moots this discussion.

    Interesting charts. Yes, his plate coverage has been okay, actually. But man, Adam Dunn hits mistakes and only mistakes, doesn't he? That is stark.
  7. 70charger
    He's Canadian, the cold weather should help him! Seriously though, I'm not terribly worried since April isn't even over yet. He hasn't looked good, that's for sure, and the stats back it up, but he's got plenty of time to turn things around. I hope he does.

    I'm not sure anyone's said that. Maybe some overzealous people might creep in that direction, but I thought the author was pretty clear. Obviously, his batting average is lower with 2 strikes than his overall batting average, but it's much higher than the norm as compared to the rest of the majors. In fact, his average in two strike counts is higher than the major league overall average. That's something. Hence the difference between "strike two, you're out" with a normal player, contrasted with the "strike two, don't panic" with Joe Mauer. Mauer was also called one of the best two-strike hitters in history. Which he is. But the author never hinted that therefore Joe should attempt to get into two strike counts.

    Gardy really seems to be doing a much better job this year. No, he's not perfect, since no manager ever is. But he's making what seem like much more informed decisions as opposed to default decisions. Contract year?

    Excellent outing by Perkins. Just beautiful stuff. And congrats to both Correia and Arcia too.
  11. 70charger
    Dozier's looking good. And it isn't just his hair.
  12. 70charger
    Called 401 feet on that Arcia bomb. I think I'm going to enjoy watching him. By the way, Mauer's average is all the way down to .364. Cut him.

    Brian Dozier's hair is epic. I had seats a few rows above the dugout in Baltimore in early April for the Twins game, and I may have yelled that at him after too many "Natty Bohs" (National Bohemian beer). He did not acknowledge my acknowledgement of his epic hair. Probably gets that a lot.

    I think you might be right. Fien has the option, so they'll take a look at Wood before sending him through waivers, if only to see what they have. As much as I don't like the idea of demoting Fien right now, I understand why you would. I just hope that they keep Wood on a fairly short leash.
  15. 70charger
    God I hope so.
  16. 70charger
    Then apparently you shouldn't vote. Or something. High-level discourse on this one...
  17. 70charger
    No, most of the time he's been a backup who wasn't going to play anyway. This really isn't that big of a deal. If he's functional enough to play an entire game last night, I'm not getting pissed that they waited until today to put him on the DL.
  18. 70charger
    This says he's going ON the disabled list. On. He was in the game for 5 at bats last night; he's going on the DL today. What's the problem here?
  19. 70charger
    Is that what they call "California math" there Bert?
  20. 70charger
    Oh come on! I expect to see him tonight, and it turns out they sent him down after Thursday. Now I find out they're bringing him right back up? I can't catch a break.
  21. 70charger
    I'm one game too late. I guess I won't be seeing Arcia at the game tonight. Disappointing.
  22. 70charger
    So this is like the free space, or what?
  23. 70charger
    I am not touching this with a ten foot pole.
  24. 70charger
    Also, if he can't get those walks under control he can always fall back on the wedding/bar mitzvah circuit. So he's got that going for him. Which is nice.
  25. 70charger
    Unless they're your initials, I pretty much roll my eyes at anyone who introduces themselves as "DJ" anything. But MAZR is waaaaaay better than Hey Beef.
