    ha.... now I can tell when . [Edit: hyperlinks to spam removed] are online.....wow.... and it even formatted it automatically when I copy and paste! I was hoping you wouldn't have those troubles anymore.......
  2. h2oface
    Well, that was over quick.
  3. h2oface
    Yup. And does that really count, in a way, because of the homer?

    So.... the Tigers have Monday off, the Twins have Monday off. The Tigers stay at home to play KC on Tuesday. The Twins are already there. The Twins travel all the way to Chicago for Tuesday. Why the hell didn't they play the makeup today, on Monday, a real 9 inning game, instead of tacking on a cheap double header later with two little league 7 inning games?

    .... and now, in this new world..... we aren't "friends" anymore

    Argh........... That already took forever in those admin messages from contact............ Sent.....

    It seems that the new settings can't differentiate the difference between the user name and the email if it is the same with the @xxxxx.com added on. It makes me start all over and go through lock out and give me a change password email to get in. If I log out, I have to do it all over again.

    I have been having all kinds of trouble with the new login. Written at least 3 messages to admin in contacts about the problems. Please read and get back to me........ I am currently in, but if I logout, it makes me start all over again from scratch. So bizarre. So.....? black and white emojis (oh.... I found the old emoticons at the bottom now), friends are gone in profile, no text size adjustments.... no text color. I will miss that....... And for some reason, I am really not a fan of "orange" anymore, at all, and those banners..... ...... and that reason for edit requirement is going to get real old...... But thanks for the changes and I hope, for all the time it took, and the advantages you see, as creator, you like it. We will all adapt, as there is no choice, eh?

    Onward to the Detroit series. The two worst teams in MLB. Ought to draw a ton of interest.

    I just couldn't assume he could have done it that wrong. Thanks for doing it right.... and I can consider worshiping WAR.
  11. h2oface
    But our FO is the self ordained, and ordained by TD writers, as the pitching development and identification guru's of baseball! How could this result you claim, be?
  12. h2oface
    This is classic for Saint Paul. They are practicing for this year's Twins by stranding runners, wasting good performances, and even have a closer, Coulombe, with a last name far too close Colome (those extra letters don't fool me), who gets the same results.
  13. h2oface
    This is the truth.
  14. h2oface
    Exactly.

    This quote from Baldelli after the 6-3 loss before this one.... “We’re not just going to send someone out there because they've been around a little longer or they’re a little more experienced,” Baldelli said. “We’re going to pitch the guys that we think have the best chance of getting us outs and we’re going to challenge our guys to do that.” He did that all year until Waddell. Hence Colome over and over and over and over.....

    Twins rank in the AL’s top-4 for WAR at multiple positions including second base (2nd overall), third base (1st overall), and left field (4th overall). Left field? LEFT FIELD? So much for WAR meaning anything.....

    I hate being a Twins' fan this year. Such disappointment, daily.
  18. h2oface
    For parts of 3 years now - end of 2019, all of 2020, and start of this year - i have been reading from stat hounds that Rogers pitching is better than results. I long for when his results are great and his pitching is not so good..... Right now his ERA and WHIP is not the complete story. The 5 inherited runners/5 inherited runners scored are part of that. It is one thing to come in with a 3 run lead and give up two and get the save. But coming in with runners on and shutting them down is what relief pitching is all about. I would still rather have 3 Rogers and less of what else we throw out there late.

    Thanks! Great article about Maeda's pitching.
  20. h2oface
    I'm sure glad that some are excited about the farm. I used to be, and there was a bunch to get excited about, but plenty of disappointment prevailed, and now I have a hard time seeing the promise. I must be getting old.

    Official score is a Simmons error, and it was, but it is Kirilloff's fault, eh? I'm not saying that official scoring is great (outfielders can literally drop a fly ball that they get to in stride, it even hits the base of the glove and not the tip, and it is scored a hit instead of an error just because they have to run a long way, as we see pretty often now - and twice today). Kirilloff saved Simmons from a second throwing error in this game. when he couldn't decide to run to second or throw it to first. Both of the Simmons' throws in question he made on the run.... both were his responsibility. "Donaldson and Simmons brought their gloves." I would hope Simmons shows us arm that matches his glove. He has 3 errors already this season. Could have had four. I would much rather see Kirilloff at first than Sano. I guess those that think Kirilloff sucks defensively didn't see him pick that throw that put the finishing touch on Donaldson's play and made it a highlight instead of a Donaldson throwing error. Sure was a relief to squeak this one out.

    I would like to give credit, but Duffey came in the game with a runner on first and 1 out, and gave up a double on a meaty 75 mph knuckle curve on the third pitch. He gifted Waddell a run. And Rogers? Getting the easiest closing opportunity ... a 3 run lead to start the 9th...... These guys made it a close game. It wasn't a close game until Duffey and Rogers made it a close game. I will give them credit when the come in the game and shut it down, not when they turn the faucet up.

    Shoemaker, Robles and Colome. Desperate horrible signings at the time of the ink.
  24. h2oface
    Colome, Robles, and Shoemaker. All horrible signings. J A Happ. Surprising me. 1 out of 4 for the FO. Not so great for pitching experts.
