  1. Oh. Okay. Say he caught it, and there is one out (and would you call it a real fine play then? A great catch? Do you call it a routine catch, a ball that almost made it out of the park and bounced off the top part of the wall?). Then how does the game end? Big difference, eh?
  2. I can't believe the management of this game. Even with all the other eggs Baldelli has laid, this one is really a pisser. Sucking the momentum out of the recent good play.
  3. That was a tough play to make. Even if it had hit his glove, it would not have been a error. That play was not why we got here.
  4. Baldelli just has it in his mind that Alcala is going to be a long relief guy. Not reading the room/game. He is basically throwing in the towel and sacrificing this game. First with Jackson, and then with Alcala
  5. Absolutely. That is where it all started. Just like the game Ryan pitched.
  6. Watson was telling Kepler to go for home way sooner. Showed on the whole field replay.
  7. More than odd. I'll chime in as it is just stupid.
  8. This game is now nauseating. Farmer is just desperate.
  9. And that is why Baldelli is not a manager I want to keep. Over and over and over and over he does this. Takes out hot hitters for our scrubs. Yep. I said it. Comparative scrubs. The last picked on the playground. But Julien, the guy hitting .202 and striking out at an unbelievable pace? Yes, even Julien. After all, Farmer is hitting .145 against mostly opposite side pitching. His forte, eh? Edit: and Farmer doubles! Ha! Score one for the stat sheet and Baldelli.
  10. Raleigh a .206 hitter. Like giving up a home to Julien 😇 Baldelli calling all the right shots today, eh? The two bullpen picks of Falvey. Ouch.
  11. Learning that sometimes they just don't belong was useful when I was teaching people to hang glide. Sometimes people want it very bad, but just don't have the right stuff. At least playing baseball, the consequences aren't gonna kill you. Probably.
  12. That totally sucked for the Twins and Jeffers. Could very well affect this ball game greatly. That would have been 2 outs. Gotta see the ball to catch it. Would have been routine pop up to catcher. Morneau always has such compassionate excuses for our guys.
  13. Ryan and Ober get the B pen. Both close games, Ryan behind by 2, Ober ahead by two.
  14. It also isn't wrong for there to be real bench players, and not play much at all. Regulars that get to hit pitchers left and right.
  15. Detroit now up 4 in the bottom of the 9th...... looking like we could pick up a game on Cleveland with a win here.
  16. Salvador Perez might be the vote, but they should both get a selection of some sort. Perez is killing it, too. https://www.mlb.com/player/salvador-perez-521692
  17. Because it is the preferred way to game the new pitch clock rule, and get extra time without stepping up and throwing a pitch. Seattle did it several times yesterday.
  18. Jeffers will do just fine. That was quick.
  19. There goes the perfect game...... I wish these guys would get started earlier in the games.
  20. Too bad Watson wasn't coaching third for the Mariners in the top of the second. He would have held Urias at third..........
  21. Consider this one a lucky gift 😇 Maybe the secret is to bring him in with no one on base and the pressure doesn't get to him. I mean, after all, this season he has inherited 6 runners, and 4 of them scored! That's not a good teammate! And that doesn't even start to count the now 6.14 ERA with 5 of his own earned in 7.1 innings! I am a bit concerned that Baldelli is giving the ninth to Thielbar, 3-4-5 batters, when we have Duran back. But it worked out tonight.
  22. Some, as in plural? Me to. But there is only one. And proud of it. How do you get them now, I wonder?
