    Oh dear. There goes that lead.
  2. Danchat
    Just read the article, and it didn't sound like Pelfrey is getting supplanted... For all those people who wanted a 6-man rotation earlier this year, well, here you go.
  3. Danchat
    I'm pretty sure this is because of Sano's lingering injury. They're going to keep DH'ing him and they're keeping him off of 3B to prevent any further injuries.

    Are we getting close to a topic length record for a game thread? At least for this season?
  5. Danchat
    My apologies, I'm not watching the game and it sounded like Dave was saying Esco was bunting. I'm glad to hear that he wasn't.
  6. Danchat
    Yikes. Making Escobar bunt was a very poor decision.
  7. Danchat
    I have yet to see any other news cites report on this, so I'm wondering if this is actually going to happen. I still want it to, though.
  8. Danchat
    Yikes. I never realized that he's 29 right now. They grow up so fast...
  9. Danchat
    Wow. Didn't see this coming. I kinda want it to happen, though. It'd make for some fun next season. Also, for the record, I do think Paul Molitor is a better manager than Gardy.

    After giving up 4 runs and no outs, Gibson goes the next 8 innings without any runs. As expected.
  11. Danchat
    Oh dear. Gibson's going to give up his rotation spot to Hughes at this rate. Pelfrey is breathing a sigh of relief...
  12. Danchat
    Sano will just have to take a few days off now and then like he is today. Hopefully he'll recover and get over the strikeout bug.
  13. Danchat
    This just in: Escobar is just 7 points away from being the team leader in batting average - and if you don't count Sano, he's tied for the lead with Rosario. (!!!!)
  14. Danchat
    Eddie Escobar has put the team on his back and he's carrying it. This is fun to watch.
  15. Danchat
    What's the cool Oregon Trail/Joe Mauer on T-Rex all about? It looks amazing, but why does it exist?
  16. Danchat
    I just got here recently. Does this make sense in context?
  17. Danchat
    They're both playing SS, both playing 9th, both named Escobar... Coincidence? I think NOT!
  18. Danchat
    I agree. I think May was the best option and it just didn't work. I'm not going to chalk this up as another management failure.
  19. Danchat
    According to Gamecast, there was one heck of an at-bat by Eduardo that included 11 balls and 15 strikes. http://i.imgur.com/69cDBdp.png

    Overreact much? He was hurt and that led to his ineffectiveness. Once he gets better, he'll go back to being a top-10 closer.
  21. Danchat
    I still stand by my thought that he should have been moved to the bullpen early in the season (April) and he would have been effective there. However, he hasn't had a horrible season in the rotation. He's healthy, and he looks like he can be a #4/#5 pitcher. But Pelfrey gives up too many crooked numbers in his poor outings. And the Twins already have a rotation full of #3-#5 pitchers. This should be it for Pelfrey's Twins career after September. At least he rebounded and had a solid 2015 for the money they're paying him.
  22. Danchat
    Yeah... now that I take a look, the only thing I see going on in the NL is a competition for the 2nd seed - the Dodgers are just 1 game ahead of the Mets. They're basically just competing for home field advantage.
  23. Danchat
    You should take a look at Nolasco's career FIP vs his career ERA. He always underperfoms his FIP, nearly every season. FIP isn't a perfect stat.
  24. Danchat
    I can think of one example. It's not a great one, but it should definitely qualify as an aggressive move. TR signed Kendrys Morales mid-season to a 1 year $12M (prorated) deal. It happened after the date for the loss of draft pick for compensation, so any team could have signed Morales. TR stepped up and signed him. Too bad the one aggressive move he made never turned into anything...
  25. Danchat
    Can Nolasco rebound back into the rotation? I don't think so, but maybe he could become a reliever. If not, I'd be OK if they unloaded his contract and got him off the roster. We need as many 40 man roster spots as we can get.
