  1. It helped the Mariners plenty. I think that was the point.
  2. The first loss was mostly a blown 3 run lead by the multiple blunders of Colome in the 9th. And when the Brewers and the Tigers and the Mariners did score in the 10th..... we had no one in the bullpen that came and and set them down 1-2-3. Not one out of 3 times.
  3. Does Sano have any options left? Oh, that's right, minors hasn't even started yet.
  4. This game was over when Colome was brought in the pitch the eighth. Not a fan.
  5. All three games lost on an unearned run.............
  6. Baldelli didn't do one thing to try to advance the runner from just letting the guys hit. The Mariners play small ball, and get the run. The only losses are from this asinine extra inning rule, and a Manager that can't manage to try anything creative or different.
  7. True, but the game would have been over after 9 if Cave wouldn't have scored, and Cruz certainly wouldn't have there.
  8. No. The runner who starts on second, however he scores, is an scored as an unearned run in this messed up extra innings play.
  9. Nice to see a team have players that can bunt, though......
  10. That debacle on opening day when he gave up 3 runs in the 9th...... none were counted as earned BECAUSE OF HIS THROW/ERROR! I wouldn't call it like main news, though.
  11. Can Baldelli and the Twins win an extra inning game this year?
  12. It is what it is and that is all that it is.
  13. So far this season, Colome has either given up the lead or lost the tie in the 8th or 9th inning in 25% of the games the Twins have played.
  14. It doesn't pay to have too good of an eye for the strike zone with plate umpires calling balls and strikes. Too many ways to get screwed.
  15. Time for the Buxton "Homer of the Game".
  16. Colome delivers. Can't hold runners. Nubbers. Solid contact. Gives up the tie game. He does everything. I'm surprised he didn't throw the ball away on the throw to first.
  17. Luck prevailed on that two inning outing. Didn't help my blood pressure.
  18. I would love to see someone come up and blow Sano away. Wishes and reality are two different things. So far, nobody has even been able to replace Rosario, who arguably had better results than Sano. So I keep wishing. Wishing for Sano to actually become a complete consistent ball player, or for someone to dramatically displace him. In the mean time..... I will see a lot of Ks, this I know for sure.
  19. I hope you are right. I have come to think Baldelli is incapable of making a gut call, and only relying on the "books".
  20. Not my baseline. But it seems your projection. Just part of the Sano story. I don't mind disapointment, and I don't deny it, either. Makes the highs higher. When you are a great player by failing 70% of the time.... to be a baseball fan, you have to embrace a long life of disappointment.
  21. Well...... top prospect in MLB through the minors, has a movie made about him.... hype hype hype. Of course the world then expects him to be a HOFer. And why not? He was entitled as he rose and now it is time to be what he was meant to be. I don't see it as unfair. He got every opportunity, every benefit of the doubt when it came to other distractions, and the money. I don't think it is unfair to expect him to deliver at all.
  22. Regardless of how small...... I agree. Worrisome performance by Sano. Hard to watch.
  23. Good on Baddoo. A fun week/weekend for him and his family. Did the Twins make a mistake? I not buying at this point. But hot is hot. And he is on fire to start.
  24. So speedy Polanco can't be sent from second but Cruz can from first. Looks like Diaz got a talkin' to..... The sure thing is..... that if you don't send the runner, he definitely can't score.
