    Well, that's the one excusable time to swing at a pitch that you have no hope at hitting!
  2. Danchat
    Just saw this:
  3. Danchat
    They've been pretty darn good at all spots. It helps that we don't have anyone playing hurt, Polanco is picking up where he left off after taking a step forward defensively last year, and Arraez looks a lot better than expected. Garver has taken a bit of a step back, but that's about all the criticism I have thus far.
  4. Danchat
    OK... going 3-1 against the Royals is pretty good. Every game against them has to be close, once again. Now we have to take on the Brewers again, who are fresh off sweeping the Cubs (had the best record for a bit).
  5. Danchat
    He is on the 60 man pool, but likely behind Astudillo and Telis on the depth chart.
  6. Danchat
    That was very clearly a ball...
  7. Danchat
    He was rated among the league's worst outfielders range-wise, if I recall right. I think a big part of that was the sprained ankle that he played through.
  8. Danchat
    They could have added him at any point, but it's clear they're not interested in putting him on the roster (most the pitchers in St. Paul aren't prospects nor MLB caliber). He's certainly not MLB ready, having only thrown 73 innings at Fort Myers (A+). They have Duran, Colina, and Chalmers ready if need be.
  9. Danchat
    Yeah, most of his track record is pretty good with some big slumps in between his hot streaks... we just have to hope that come playoff time, he doesn't look like he did last year (1 for 12, 1 HR 8 Ks).
  10. Danchat
    Smeltzer looks good, getting more Ks than usual. As it has been for most this season, the pitching is not the problem today.
  11. Danchat
    At least Polanco is having some quality ABs while most the rest of the team is stinking it up.
  12. Danchat
    It's hard to believe Garver and Sano were hitting above .900 OPS last year...
  13. Danchat
    I'm surprised they haven't tried to find a veteran starter to put on the 60 man pool in case something like this happened. I'd also rather see Smeltzer given a legitimate shot rather than see most the bullpen get trotted out there.
  14. Danchat
    Probably once his ERA is in the 3.00s.
  15. Danchat
    The fielding has been way better than expected this season... it was supposed to be a weakness, but Polanco and Arraez have been better than expected thus far.
  16. Danchat
    I'm holding Dick 100% accountable for these HRs.
  17. Danchat
    ...and 6 pitches later, our turn is already over.
  18. Danchat
    Dick did his best to conjure that HR into being. "Dobnak has NEVER given up a HR as a starting pitcher!" 20 seconds later... he's wrong!
  19. Danchat
    Can't lose another series to the Royals - let's go get them! We need some better hitting today.
  20. Danchat
    Marwin's had some great ABs today, but unfortunately have ended with warning track flyballs.
  21. Danchat
    Garver is 0 for 15 against Duffy in his lifetime, why the heck is he hitting leadoff today?!
  22. Danchat
    Duffy getting 7 Ks to 2 hits is pretty pathetic...
  23. Danchat
    I don't think so, he posted some mediocre stats in AA last year as a starter and couldn't get deep into games. He looks much better in the pen (he played a bit in AAA as a reliever last year).
  24. Danchat
    Not sure I'd want Berrios to go out and pitch the 3rd. He needs to figure himself out, else he might not be good enough to be in this rotation once everyone is healthy.
  25. Danchat
    Yikes, Jose is lucky he made it out of there with a 0-0 game. It's going to be hard to win games with him on the mound throwing like this.
