    The head first slide reduces the runner velocity way, way before it does with the feet first slide. Some these sad slides the runner nearly stops before reaching he base.

    I used chewing tabacco; the flavored stuff is real good, I did swallow and spit, but figured there are better ways to spend money. I never, ever used snuff and cannot figure how people can like that ****.

    Santana is here because of his glove, so guess again, and Kirilloff's lack of a glove.

    Well, two veterans and rookie from some other team do the good thing.
  5. RpR
    I think this thought is to the point and correct.

    I am not the only person on this site that has said, Julien, and few others, have been given gift of not listed as an error even though they screwed up; Although, that also gives some batters a gift in there Batting Average. For a point: Ozzie Smith, one of the best Short Stops that ever played the game; in the 5 years he had Twenty of more errors, his precentage ranked from .970-.974, while also in each of those seasons he played more than 130 games. So, while errors are an obvious failure, the ability to turn a double play counts heavily in defense numbers and Julien, is slow at turning double plays.

    NO, I did not say thatv-- just writing that ERRORS are not the only figure used.

    I truly hope they win this game, and it is not a close game. That will do a lot for their state of mind, if nothing else. Big players of the game will be Margot, Kepler and Castillo; Goats of the game will be Margot, Kepler and Castillo. Split bet.

    Yes , it is a gaggle of opinions, gents who do not make the statistics. Interesting reading, as are most opinion pages, just like Reusse. Here is the traditional modes of defense stats: For most of baseball history, putouts, assists, and errors have been the backbone of evaluating defense. From those, it is straightforward to add together a player's (or team's) putouts, assists, and errors to calculate their total chances. That is already more than just errors but how much scorers baby a player (Julien) a lot is missing., as some one they do not like gets the shaft and a favorite gets by on crap. This article says more about some are looking at it now IF they so choose. https://www.twinkietown.com/2021/2/23/22282269/twinkie-town-analytics-fundamentals-come-learn-baseball-with-john-defense-field-percent-uzr-drs-oaa

    His MiLB 2024 2nd base, as of last week was .932 - ,049 points lower than a similar no, of games last year,
  14. RpR
    Not a bad idea.
  15. RpR
    I do not calculate fielding percentage, MLB does. His glove is erradict, like his bat,

    IF, if the Twins can win one against the Phillies, all is not lost.

    Don't get your hope up they are some miracle workers; Royce was in a huge slump went he went to IL.
  18. RpR
    At least Margo hit the ball, the 2 Ks that followed were obscene.
  19. RpR
    Take away Baldelli's Abacus.
  20. RpR
    Cannot see game, how come no one tagged up and scored.
  21. RpR
    Well some here cry the Twins should bring the rookies up and let them learn in the Majors; well they are here and they are learning, whilst playing like they should still be in AAA.
  22. RpR
    They had better pray Cleveland craps-out this week or Twins are in a deep hole.
  23. RpR
    There is a larger record of the opposite, OK in the Minors and stink in the Majors, which is why most rookies crap out.
  24. RpR
    Yep, last year he was at .981 in the Minors, this year he is .932, big improvement.😆
  25. RpR
    Or send Julien back, hopefully.
