  1. Nice job, Belisle. You let the guy with 2 career HRs and a sub .600 OPS hit a HR off you to blow the lead of the game. Urk.
  2. Colon's at 48 pitches and he's gotten just 6 outs. I'm concerned he's not going to make it very far today.
  3. I wonder if Santiago can be placed on the 60 day DL? Goodrum's an interesting add, I don't think he's anything more than a fringe bench player but at least they're giving him a cup of coffee after sticking around in the organization for so long. I also expect to see Boshers up, Slegers, and possibly Palka. Not sure if they'll add any more non-40 man guys.
  4. 7 scoreless innings with 11 strikeouts and just 5 baserunners. Berrios may have had some clunkers, but it's clear he's improving and he's going to keep getting better. Gibson is OK and it's not quite time to boot him out of the rotation, but he simply doesn't have the upside Berrios does.
  5. Our run differential is coming back down! We're almost a .500 team according to Pythag. W-L!
  6. 11 Ks so far for Berrios! Nice stuff!
  7. Watching Pelfrey pitch an inning is just kinda painful. Takes waaay too long in between pitches and add the fact that he's not very good, and you have innings that last 12 minutes on average.
  8. I think Hildy should get the next couple days off. We need his arm fresh for September.
  9. POLANCO!!!!!! Is that 60% of his HRs against the White Sox?
  10. Twins seem to be better at getting in runs as of late. Let's hope they can keep this up.
  11. It's good to see the Twins aren't letting Shields get a free pass this time around.
  12. A couple days ago Kintzler blew a 2 run lead in the 9th inning for the Nationals. It's not as if keeping Kintzler would make this team 2-3 games better, everyone has their clunkers. It stinks to see Duffey and Pressly struggle so much even though they have great stuff. Sometimes they can be dominant, sometimes they implode. Curtiss shouldn't have pitched the 9th in a one run game but a lot of crazy things happened that I wouldn't fully blame him for (Garver's errant throw, failing to catch a pop-up).
  13. Just saw Melville got claimed on waivers by the Padres. That might be a ballpark that could sustain his type of pitching.
  14. It's great to see the offense back to life. Now we might get to see Curtiss in the 9th!
  15. It took him a while, but Smoak looks like a great hitter. Now just a triple away from the cycle.
  16. Colon had a terrible strand rate with the Braves, now with the Twins, his strand rate [while not looking at the stats] seems to be fantastic. I have to give Falvey and co. credit, they made a shrewd signing. I'm still not convinced Colon is all that good (too many hits and HRs) but they gotta keep going with him through the end of the season.
  17. -Colon really likes giving up solo HRs, doesn't he? -Good to see Garver with the XBH and immediately have Kepler hit him in. -Polanco needs to be playing 2B -Rosario with yet another throw off-target. Ugh.
  18. If it makes anyone feel better, Brandon Kintzler blew a 2 run lead for the Nationals in the 9th. They did come back to win, however.
  19. No 5 Polanco HRs in 5 games streak. I was really hoping for that.
  20. Winning last night's game was very crucial because games like this will happen. If we can't take advantage of the easy part of the schedule, we're toast.
  21. You may not believe it, but some of us watch the Twins and don't ingest alcohol. Be amazed.
