  1. Top ten seems good, unless there are only 11 that are rated in the category...... and this article does not say how many are rated in each position. If Jeffers in rated that high relatively, either catchers are really bad or the statndards are not that high. And rating pitch framing. That is just fiction. No one really knows if they made the call change and either stole or lost a strike. Defensive stats still seem flakey to me.
  2. I hope Jeffers was watching Polanco!
  3. Boneheads. Amazing. How do they ever get to the show when they run the bases like this?!
  4. Why these guys don't run like hell out of the box is always a mystery. What else to they have to do!!!!!
  5. Well, so far this year, so good. Only one bad outing in May, and out all 2017 and 2020 (started great) and 2021... and 2016 was very good. Granted 2018 and 19 were rough. I guess you got what you wanted. How was Alex Pagan...... this year and last? At least San Diego was smart enough to not let him save games!
  6. Thornburg. Agreed there is a huge problem. It has been that way all season and before it even started. It is like hearing little baby chicks....."cheap, cheap".
  7. YES! At this point, and even today, at least try Thornburg, and NOT Pagan!
  8. Well..... he could actually stop going to Pagan in the late innings. You know, at least try something different!
  9. Minority Report guilty before one acts, eh? At least give him a chance to commit your assigned crime.
  10. Once again, if you give your pen a one run lead in the bottom of the 8th, it doesn't matter if it is 10-9 or 2-1. It absolutely does not matter how many runs have been scored in the game. It only matters what the difference is. The total number of runs means nothing. The 3-2 or 2-1 win counts as much as the 11-1 win. The pen only has one job, and that is to hold the lead. It certainly is NEVER acceptable to walk, walk, WP, and starting with a 3-0 count to the third batter (all cutters) before getting a couple strikes (one take) with 4-seamers and going back to the cutter (which was hanging and another ball, actually, just outside, which would have been baseloaded) and giving up a 2 run single. Sancez likes the cutters? It is on the pen to support not only the lead, but to not blow the great work by your starter, your mate.
  11. Sure glad I didn't waste my time watching. Starting to really lose interest in this team...... damn.
  12. The Twins are basically a .500 team with one 8 game winning streak. A league of their own? Right.
  13. Miranda's best position seems to be DH. He needs to hit more consistently, though. It is very disappointing that the Twins don't develop defense. Prospect after prospect can't field worth a damn but can hit.
  14. Umpires were only used because there was no other option. "Umpires" used to call who touched the wall first in a swimming race or crossed the line in a horse race, etc. Swimmers still have soul now that the machines call the winner of the race. If you have a better option to reward the proper human soulful winner, that is all we ever really want. If a human could do it best, use the human. But we all know they are just guessing, and are not capable to perform as well as the best option now available. Even though more and more converts are crossing over to the inovation..... you are still late to the game....... but very welcome.
  15. Wrong calls NEVER have an upside in my book. Totally disagree with fake intrigue.
  16. Still absolutely hate the decision. Got lucky. Real lucky.
  17. Mr 7 era on the mound. Unbelieveable. OK. 6+ Seems the matchups are reverse. Did you see that in you charts, Baldy!?
  18. Baldy is just incapable of managing a game now, it seems. How do you like your plan so far, Baldy!!!???
  19. And the home crowd boos Baldy. Theilbar for Duran? You have got to be kidding me, right?
  20. I blame Arraez, What a lout. Didn't even get 1 hit. Everyone knows that with the pitching the FO provided we need 12 runs to make sure we win a game.
  21. The PLAN. The PLAN. The PLAN. The PLAN.
  22. yup. And how about the bonehead ump call missing the bounce? The spirits are not on our side.
  23. Maybe Baldy will let Pagan and Jax pitch again tomorrow. Go for 3 in a row. Throw balker Thielbar in there, too.
