    Just a minute - Kate Upton is calling and wants to go on a date with me.

    Fun. I love a good change up so watching Johan was a joy. His mechanics were so clean I thought he wouldn’t get hurt but he eventually did. I also enjoyed seeing a certain reporter assigned to cover Johan in those days. Liriano was a completely different style of pitcher with a violent delivery that was doomed to cause injury. His slider was almost unhittable. And Joe, it’s hard to imagine right now having a catcher that good on both sides of the ball. I believe he had a season where he threw out 40% of attempted base stealers and had a 400 OBP.

    Nice play Royce. Gray didn’t look the runner back.

    It’s good managing. Get him back out there in a situation that’s under control.
  5. Linus
    And apparently free agency isn’t an option so yea doesn’t look good.

    It’s easy to understand why they didn’t want to keep SWR. Smh
  7. Linus
    I believe those two homers end to end would reach Lakeville.

    No swing there.

    Happy for Vanimal and Chief that they got see a comeback and sorry they will have to witness Lawrence.

    I assume they moved Lee in anticipation of Culpepper being up or perhaps they know Lee is destined to be a third baseman and want to get him started on that path.

    I like Wheel of Regret. It’s perfect for our pen.
  12. Linus
    It’s pretty much been his problem since he came up. To say “if he can only keep it off the barrel he will be good” seems empty.

    Wild game. Glad for Royce and Brooks.
  14. Linus
    He’s not stellar at blocking pitches.
  15. Linus
    So much for “we can build a bullpen on the fly”.
  16. Linus
    This has been the worst plate umpiring I’ve seen this season.
  17. Linus
    Joe is a fun guy.
  18. Linus
    Yea and they even screwed up the positioning of the cutoff man.
  19. Linus
    The tag was to his chest. His hand made it to the base.
  20. Linus
    Damn. He was safe.
  21. Linus
    More stunning defensive play from Wallner. He should sit.
  22. Linus
    It’s bad enough that Gray can’t play but does he have to be brain dead too?
  23. Linus
    It’s also tough to quantify in a vacuum. You can live with a slightly below average defender if they can really hit. Likewise if combined slightly below average defense with a mediocre bat you have a problem. A problem the Twins face all over the diamond.

    Buck has full 10 and 5 rights - full no trade. I want him to stay and finish his career here. However if he wants to go, he’s earned the chance to play for a ring.

    Thanks for the interesting post. Full disclosure: I’m a bit of a fielding metric skeptic however these numbers pretty much match the eye test. I consider Martin more average but he has improved for sure. Bell at +1 is a head scratcher as he is a genuinely bad fielder. A real SS would help immensely but realistically they could improve everywhere except CF and when Clemens plays first. Of course the real challenge is finding players that can hit and field.
