    Not often, but of course we will

    How many times is the White Sox catcher gonna call for a ball in the dirt with a runner on third?
  3. mikecgrimes
    Missed challenge on the force at 2nd he clearly never had it while on the base.
  4. mikecgrimes
    Given he pitches tonight and pitchers are only named and not set on the 9th it's 4 possibly 5 starts. If he's just solid in those starts he'll have the resume to easily make it.

    The Santana Berrios debate would be a good one if merit was one of the top factors when it comes to pitchers, but All-Star game pitching is a lot like the pro bowl, it's an honor to be named but little incentive to go. As it stands right now Berrios is slightly ahead of Santana plus has more star qualities so if it came down to those two as of today I think Berrios gets it and as I've said in other threads I feel the margin will only increase as the season goes on. With Sano getting in and either Santana or Berrios I doubt Doizer would do enough to get in, and it's probably to late for anyone else to get on a role and make it.

    Twins will be back in first within a week

    This White Sox right fielder is Gross man
  8. mikecgrimes
    White Sox bullpen needs to get 5, advantage Twins
  9. mikecgrimes
    Baserunning tip always try to score on a potential double play ball, would have either got zero outs or just the out at home or first
  10. mikecgrimes
    Twins offense is pretty good on Tuesdays
  11. mikecgrimes
    I don't think Santana will start game one over Berrios anymore
  12. mikecgrimes
    I sure hope those UMD hockey fans are able to make it to the games this week.
  13. mikecgrimes
    If we're 2 or 3 games out at the deadline we have a tough decision. Now we wait to see if we get back to even or 4 games out first. Until your over 3 games out or 3 with 2 games remaining your in it.

    This thread has reminded me we have our two best pitchers ready to help us recover. The luxury of a 2 game lead was we could afford to be swept without it being a knockout. it sure feels like it was but so did Houston. If we build another 2 game lead we know we're a true contender.

    You can't challenge the fact your player made a bad mistake, they can look at the replay they might even actually feel sorry for you, but it wouldn't have mattered. It would be far better to save it for an infield single with nobody on and 2 out then waste it on that correct call.
  16. mikecgrimes
    Are Sano and Vargas just laying in the dirt like I do when I'm to tired to play catch with the kids?
  17. mikecgrimes
    I wonder if Molitor stopped paying attention to Falvey. Molitor shouldn't last the season.
  18. mikecgrimes
    Really appreciated the effort by Rosario on the strikeout trotting out of the batters box, and then remembering the fans don't pay enough for tickets for him to run hard. And the great thing is he gave a hell of a lot more effort then Escobar. Fire Molitor, no excuse for allowing that.
  19. mikecgrimes
    True but since the system is what it is there needs to be better strategy. In the end challenging that would be like challenging a routine fly out. Ump clearly got it right.
  20. mikecgrimes
    If replay somehow was able to correct all calls 100% of the time you would challenge that play every time on the 2% chance there he missed the tag.
  21. mikecgrimes
    Dick Breamer on a play that scores a run and would leave you 2nd and 3rd with one out thinks the Twins didn't challenge because they don't want to risk it this early? I guess they must be saving it for a potential 5 run play later.
  22. mikecgrimes
    Hey neat about a 7 pitch inning from the Twins offense, as bad as the pitching has been the offense has been pretty bad as well. Pitching could have been pretty good and we still would of lost the first 3.
  23. mikecgrimes
    Agreed but the worst thing that could happen is being in contention July 28 and 5+ games out August 10th. As good as Ervin Santana is he's better off traded.
  24. mikecgrimes
    Win today and we have fun for a little while longer, lose and we have a good chance of settling into being a seller just in time. I like both options.

    The problem is we are seeing the shooting as a punishment and not an incident, and because we see it as a punishment we leap to things like murder. If we start from the point that this probably is not murder, but it is really bad and needs to be prevented as much as possibly with reasonable criminal charges to the officer in a case like this. The trial because it was about murder did not need to determine if the shooting was justified or not it just came down to what the murder law actually is. Clearly we mostly agree a mistake even a really bad one like this may have been or like a DWI related death is not murder. Now I'm not going to say there is no chance this guy or other officers haven't decided if they get a borderline case they won't hesitate to shoot a black man, and that would truly be murder, but unless they've told another person those intentions it's unprovable.
