    I think Thielbar is cooked. But he is going to cost us too many games before Baldelli quits going to him, I fear.

    How about that run differential, now! Out of the negative and into the positive. It's right up there in great importance.... like the all important (these days) exit velocity. Hey doomsday guys! How you feeling now?

    "Baseball doesn't have a rule that defines the length of a sliding glove," "But, there is no rule in baseball defining the length of these mitts, so you could do it and potentially get away with it. Imagine if you saved your hidden 90ft baserunning mitt for the most important moment of the game you manage." Time to exploit that no rule.......

    "According to MLB rules, base runners, except for the catcher, can wear a leather glove that is no more than 13 inches long, measured from the top to the bottom, and no more than 8 inches wide, measured from the base of the thumb crotch to the outer edge of the mitt. The glove should not measure more than 13 inches from the tip of any one of the four fingers, through the ball pocket, to the bottom edge or heel of the glove. " That doesn't seem to be the answer, though......

    Is there a rule about how long a base runners glove can be? Why not wear one that is a foot long? Or more. Bigger bases, longer base running hand protectors? Buxton's must give him about 4 inches.

    Commenter's jinx? 😇 Is that a thing?

    A good offense can sure cover up some pretty poor pitching the last two days.

    Lax. 2 strikes 2 outs. Can't put them away.
  9. h2oface
    Well, that is a timely wrinkle.....

    Monday taking (probably) a 7 game win streak into Chicago to face the White Sox, who have their own 3 game win steak since they left Minnesota..... against the Rays. Who would have thunk it?

    I like this answer best, though. Will Livingston would be impressed.

    I'm not your foil?

    Pablo Day Lopez. Ace my arse! ALL innings count. You are your record, and Lopez is now at 4.83 ERA for the season with a career just over 4. Ace, eh?
  15. h2oface
    If Duran wants to, sure. It should be up to the player. It is his career. The Braves did it with Spencer Strider a few years back, and during the season.. Pitchers, any player for that matter, can get hurt anytime anywhere anyhow. Earning potential is a real thing. People can sure be selfish about other's lives

    And then just after that there was Farmer's brain freeze and mental mistake on the relay that cost a run. It is just tragic to watch him bat, and even more so when Baldelli pulls one of the hot hitting lefty's and gives the at bat to Farmer instead of the lefty that even has better results against the left handed pitchers now than Farmer.
  17. h2oface
    That way they will finally be ready when they are 25-26, just like the Twins seem to like them.
  18. h2oface
    Lucky. Best bullpen in MLB. 3 inherited runners.. 2 runs scored.
  19. h2oface
    Baldelli just can’t help himself. Theilbar is cooked.
  20. h2oface
    Mistake to put Theilbar in…..
  21. h2oface
    ??? Not even close.
  22. h2oface
    Farmer now = officially worthless.

    No team that a healthy Mike Trout is on is anything but an MLB team. Even as a lifelong Twins fan, and that is since they moved to Minnesota. It's hard to stomach how arrogant Twins' fans and players can be about how good they are. Are the Astros cooked? I doubt it. Historically, the Twins struggle in Anaheim. I hope the players treat them with the respect they need to be focused and beat them 2 out of 3 at a minimum. "You are what your record says you are", and an 11-13 team that was so recently 7-13 against teams with a record above .500 this year has no room to be cocky, yet.

    Shewmake’s 5th inning was my favorite part of this whole game. Absolutely beautiful bunt, taking advantage of the Twins incessant and predictable shifting, stealing third on a careless Ryan, and scoring on the horrible throw for anything to second by Vazquez in a play some like but I hate and would never do with 2 outs (which there was at time of throw). That whole sequence was a thing of baseball beauty!
  25. h2oface
    The scheduling? Before this series with Chicago, neither the White Sox or the Twins had played a team with a W-L record under .500. The White Sox were 3-18 and the Twins were 7-13. Naaaaa. It’s the players who don’t get themselves ready for the season and are so fragile and physically tight.
