  1. Huh? Actually probably the best thing for his development. He's 21, let's give the kid a chance to breathe.
  2. Nope. A perfect situation for the Twins. Keep him year to year for a couple years and deal him when Gordon or Vielma are ready. He's not special enough to commit long term to.
  3. Dave, are you sure? You've been in Mollies corner all year.
  4. After he spit the bit the time before. Every other start isn't going to cut it.
  5. I love Duffy. His whole attitude is give me the ball. Gets behind in the count - give me the ball. Runners on-give me the ball. He's looking at the Catcher or checking the runner, that's it. Gibson and Pelfrey are wondering around, looking around, rubbing up the ball, letting out a big sigh. It's like they are afraid.
  6. Meanwhile, this just in - the Twins didn't even come close to throwing at anybody last night.
  7. Nice call Mollie, right Dave W?
  8. Ironically I think it would have been the best thing for Pelfrey to go to the pen. He may be a valuable reliever at this point instead of a washed up starter
  9. I generally don't care about that stuff but when your own manager starts apologizing right away it's obviously something that would have pissed off most teams.
  10. Remind me to ignore fWAR from now on.
  11. Ok I like molly but the I'm going g to play Dave w. He can't treat this like game 121. He has to have somebody up as soon as Pelfrey starts flailing g and wandering around. Talk about a dollar short
  12. Is there anybody up? This is the f!#/ING game here maybe the season
  13. Regardless of this challenge Pelfrey has to get the hook. Bring in hughes
  14. Alright Molly, might as well get somebody up. Pelfrey has that look.
  15. Wow, that was a fun read.
  16. Well, today is likely to be the most telling day of the year. Two vastly different outcomes possible.
  17. All the losses in the first half when we had to start somebody other than Santana. Also it would be interesting to add up how many bad losses vs victories they stole for all the contenders. That would give a truer indication of who really left one one the table.
  18. I thought Perk looked sharp last night. Even the single was off the trademark and then he dominated. Let's hope he's back.
  19. This an interesting tangent. Jack Morris had pedestrian stats in certain cases but was considered clutch when it counted. Perhaps what is being discovered is that equal stats aren't necessarily equal
  20. I'm not sure that's a ringing endorsement. My point is that his history is one of stark inconsistency so the fact that he spit the bit last night shouldn't be a surprise to anyone.
  21. Except this has been his MO for both his big league seasons. On good to great start followed by a horrible start. It's not like this only happens at the end of the season
  22. Ouch. I do think he spends most of next year in Rochester.
  23. I don't know about the "meaningful" part as you would really have to know him to determine how he handles pressure. One thing is for sure: this business of giving your team NO chance every other start has to change for him to be an important part of a good rotation.
  24. Gibson looks like Pelfrey out there. Wandering around letting out a sigh, can't throw a strike. Almost looks afraid.
  25. Perk said as much; that he feels better than he has all year.
