    It is only a one sided story if one side refuses to talk, or "comment", when the same media calls them, and tells them they are writing a story that includes them, and asks if they would like to be included, and give their side. The party that doesn't want to talk, usually has the most to hide, and usually would look the worst if they do weigh in. It happens on 60 minutes all the time, for example. I guess in this world we live in, telling the truth as they understand it, and expressing ones feelings, becomes unprofessional to those touting their corporate experience and customs, and professional means covering up, hiding the facts, and being generally holier than thou and condescending. Some respect that, especially those that are a product of that box. Cultured in the box, living in the box, and defending the box, and hiding the truth. Rampant supposition and judgement then abounds. They had every right to do what they did. They did it, and they aren't telling. And some like that. I get it.

    That sounds like an errant supposition to me. If a journalist calls you and you agree to talk to him, is that one going to the media..... or the media coming to you? I believe there is a big difference.

    Sure would have been nice to have Verlander pitching for the Twins.......
  4. h2oface
    Weakest pitchers lining up for Cleveland. Not that Berrios and Santana have been so consistent lately...... but still. And do we really have to see Colon again?! Really?

    I don't get the big deal. It heals when it heals. If he isn't ready, he has the off season to heal. I don't see why any one would be trying to scam anyone for any reason.

    The only way you can advance, is if you get in. If you get in, even at 83-78, you might just win it. One game at a time........

    Impressive game for the boys. I am really impressed by winning close games more, but a win is a win is a win. And especially now. I hope they have saved some runs for the rest of the series.
  8. h2oface
    Best for all pitchers to where Gibson's number when pitching now.

    Gotta be a twit to vote on the poll. That leaves me out. 83. Hardly deserving the playoffs with that record, but thems the rules.
  10. h2oface
    It's Doug Mientkiewicz' fault.

    Live from New York! Staring the "Not Ready For Prime-Time Players!", our Minnesota Twins! Brutal. Embarrassing. Pitiful. But..... someone has to go to NY and play the Yankees (probably) in the Wild Card Game. Whether it is the Twins or the Angels (who have 2 more against Cleveland and 3 against Houston) .... they are limping in. Neither can compete with the other playoff teams. It almost isn't fair to have a second Wild Card when there is so much distance between the 2nd and 1st. Nothing entertaining to me about Colon. It was so obvious that he had been lucky. Even when he got a few wins and results. But some fans were easily impressed, and the Management was too. Pressing the luck. He deserves one more start. Me.... you retire him before he gets the chance to fail three games in a row down the stretch, dont' push the luck. (My personal hell, Colon and Duffey). So here we are. With a cane. And we might just limp into the Wild Card game. Somebody has to.

    Watching the 8th again... Dozier was a let down. The leader, hunting a walk. Had the count at 2-0, and watched meat right down the heart of the plate, to go to 2-2. Plus, more hind sight. Granite could have very possibly/probably worked a walk too.... and not given the Yankees a free out there. Bunting again. Traditional, for sure, but if Dozier is going to test the wildness for a walk instead of trying to drive in the tying run from second..... why not give Granite a few pitches to see if he gets the free base, and moves the runner, without giving up an out.

    Season series tied 2-2. Yes. We. Can.
  14. h2oface
    104. Talk about a fever.
  15. h2oface
    Well, we had 'em with the bases loaded and the game in two hot hitter's hands. Mauer and Buxton. It was right there.
  16. h2oface
    At least Duffey ins't giving him meat.
  17. h2oface
    And just another way for Duffey to give it up.
  18. h2oface
    No run, no gift. Just a tease.
  19. h2oface
    Buxton hit the fly ball for Mauer.
  20. h2oface
    At least Grossman is still in defensively at DH.
  21. h2oface
    I can't watch.
  22. h2oface
    Should have bunted. Squeeze. With speedy Grossman. It was set up perfect.
  23. h2oface
    I would rather have 1st base open. Recipe for a DP without.
  24. h2oface
    Lead foot Grossman still on second. That is a big mistake.
  25. h2oface
    And only 36 pitches thrown by Garcia after 3. And 7 Ks. How can that even happen? And Santana is going to have around 60 pitches after 3 if he is lucky.
