  1. Jesus, now Dick thinks Dobnak has a shot to go nine innings.
  2. Dick and Roy don't think run differential means anything.
  3. Catch the ****ing ball. I guess I can't blame the players for not having any urgency when the manager doesn't.
  4. I do not think I've ever seen a team get trapped between third and home as often as this one.
  5. I think Smalley has Norris and Verhagen confused with Drysdale and Koufax, although they'll both likely dominate the Twins.
  6. I will try to explain myself somewhat succinctly rather than the panicked meltdown post immediately following six beers. Nothing Gibson does in the next week is going to change my opinion on whether he can help this team or not. I certainly do not want him pitching in a close game. Yes, Rocco's move "worked out" in the fact he didn't give up three runs in two innings, but it was not a quality outing. The bullpen was rested after a day off so there were countless options available and Rocco didn't need to make a split second decision as the new pitcher would have had all the time he needed to get loose following an injury. If you want to get Gibson some work wait for a 12-4 game to get him an inning or two. Or at least wait until they have actually clinched the division. The tying run came to the plate last night and it would have been very demoralizing to blow a late inning lead to the Tigers, when you arguably went with your eighth bullpen option.
  7. on bringing Gibson into this game. Anything at all would be great.
  8. Blanco is key. He had more career postseason home runs than Mauer and was the starting catcher the last time we won a postseason game.
  9. I'd be a bit concerned if it went up.
  10. Yeah, to make it a save situation for the other team.
  11. I'm sure this will play well in the postseason.
  12. My point is if you have so little faith in a guy that you need to have someone warming up after two batters that you should have just went with the second guy right away.
  13. Guys warming up in the bullpen with a six run lead.
  14. I wish they'd let Duffey go a second inning since he just blew everyone away instead of hoping May is having one of his good days. I mean he's guaranteed to have a day off tomorrow.
  15. A bit of momentary breathing room... for one batter at least.
  16. Littell for one batter and then Thorpe for the next 4 innings (and 5 runs)?
