    Can a pitcher get 2 blown saves in one game?
  2. h2oface
    Baldelli's pinch runner that didn't run when he could and didn't need to.
  3. h2oface
    Blame what you like. Doesn't change the fact that the run was given up by the pen.
  4. h2oface
    So What. The bullpen still has to give it up..... or not.
  5. h2oface
    Now one swing can win it.
  6. h2oface
    Which doesn't include the 3 unearned losing runs in extras, and Colome's blown lead by his own error for 3 more... total of 6 more earned "unearned" runs that lost the games, all given up by the ........ bullpen. "There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics."
  7. h2oface
    Colome has no control. It looks like when he does get a pitch in, he was just lucky.
  8. h2oface
    Great defensive alignment now......
  9. h2oface
    What? All three of the first loses were Bullpen loses.
  10. h2oface
    YES! Now Colome has some breathing room for the 10th.
  11. h2oface
    And now we take defense out of the game. Great, Baldelli. Did you stat percentage book give you that percentage move?
  12. h2oface
    Sweet. Now he can pitch the tenth with a runner on second to start the inning. We are so good at extra inning games. This should be a piece of cake.
  13. h2oface
    As we all knew would happen. And now for the coup de grâce?
  14. h2oface
    That was lucky.....
  15. h2oface
    This is like watching Molitor keep putting a totally spent Perkins in the game that September.....
  16. h2oface
    Start 3-0 to Olson and what do you expect to happen in that at bat....
  17. h2oface
    What is that called again.... when you do the same thing over and over again but expect different results?
  18. h2oface
    Baldelli just has to do it. They better put up 4 insurance runs or this is not going to end well with the new guy coming in with his special brand of disappointment
  19. h2oface
    Berrios "deGrom'ed". We finally had Donaldson, Cruz, and Buxton all in the same lineup.... twice... but they went 3/16 and contributed to the "deGrom'ing" of Berrios. In 3 starts, including getting bombed by Arizona, Luzardo came into the game with and 8.31 ERA and a .328 average against. But the Twins made him look like a Cy Young winner, and all on 65 pitches n 5.1! I need a break.
  20. h2oface
    If Astudillo playing second is considered depth, we are in deep poop. And Baldelli still insists on batting a struggling Garver leadoff. I like him there when he is hot..... but now? At least we have Donaldson, Buxton, and Cruz in the lineup.....
  21. h2oface
    Looks like the Angels are playing today. At least we didn't infect them, too. Hopefully.
  22. h2oface
    This team didn't hit last year (except for Cruz, and even he cooled toward the end of the year, and Buxton, when he was able to play), it didn't hit during ST, and it isn't hitting now. So many chose to disregard the performance of last year and ST and considered it meaningless. I would have been surprised if they just turned it on like a switch. The bullpen decisions I hated, and even more now. This FO did little but stand pat, or make this team OLDER. It is a long season (maybe). I hope they figure it out. But I am not optimistic. I think they are totally wasting the current window, and need to bring on the youth, and make quick decisions about their bullpen mess. Or..... just trade the youth or let them go to other teams that don't keep them buried in the minors...... yubbaa dubbaa baddoo.
  23. h2oface
    Nothing like just giving up. I had an offer to go to the game today. And with Buxton out, and who is scheduled to pitch today, could not do it. I just can't bring myself to watch this team live right now. I made the right choice.
  24. h2oface
    The only way to stop this hope to cheat the call .... called pitch framing.... is to use the cameras and call more accurate and consistent strike zones. As long as it is in the plate umpires domain, this needless movement of the glove will continue, and the actual job of the catcher - to catch the ball - will be muddled by trying to fool the umpire, or to just hope the pitch isn't one of the 15% they will call wrong. It really is ridiculous that this continues. When the change finally happens, and it will happen, we will see other talents be refined that make the game better, such as pick off throws of all kinds. Until then, the "cheat the call" MO will continue, and some will call it a talent.

    Damn. After today we are cellar dwellers. Tied for the worst record in the American League.
