  1. Hey look, it's Mark Reynolds playing third! Let's go, Zuke!
  2. Very happy to be wrong about Arcia.
  3. Gomez did a great job of jumping for a ball he could have caught chest high there. I call Arcia K's on a changeup
  4. Arcia doesn't have much touch around the wall, does he...
  5. No kidding, that was a horrible call. Especially with two runners on base.
  6. I think that's three guys that Garza thought he had struck out and had to interrupt his walk off the mound. Hopefully the ump is getting in his head. (edt) and now I hope Gibson starts getting the low strike that Garza is getting.
  7. Nice, but given that he was delivering pizzas, did you ask how well he had absorbed the teaching about running a restaurant?
  8. Given that the left fielder was practically on the left field line, yeah, I think they have some idea.
  9. Trevor, Trevor, Trevor...
  10. And that didn't work out so well for them. Hah!
  11. Bummed to find out that TWINSWIN promo for Papa Johns doesn't work in Chicago. Hey, I'm a Twins fan, they won, Give Me My Half-price Pie!!! Fortunately, my good friend google pointed out that june50 works too. I was glad to see a Mauer line drive go for extra bases. If they want to shift him to catch that the left fielder would have to be 20 feet from the line.
  12. So is a hammer, but that doesn't make it a good idea. Aloha.
  13. I wonder how the probability of scoring a run changes when you leave second base in order to steal first base. Maybe that's a strategy that makes sense above the t-ball level, where kids seem to employ it on a somewhat regular basis. Hmmm....
  14. If this is really Scott Baker, he'll look untouchable and then quickly fall apart. Let's hope it happens in the bottom of the second.
  15. We played multiple shortstops in the outfield for a week before this flap erupted. If they wanted to call them out, they missed a bunch of opportunities. There are so many ideas about what the team should do, and they are so conflicted. We should deal Willy/Correia because they aren't part of the future. Fine, but Presley/Mastro aren't part of the future either. Does giving Alex Presley significant at-bats this year have any possible future payoff? I don't see it. I think they should get a CF that they could use for a while, no question. Dumping Mastro? Not a big deal, just a quick short-term non-fix. Solve the problem. And don't look to Reusse for solutions, just expect scorn and late bandwagon-jumping.
  16. ...and this begs the question of how long we will rehash 2013 decisions...
  17. Agreed- my reasoning is the same as yours. Will his current success translate to a full-time role (if the Royals use him that way)? He's the one who will decide that, in effect.
  18. The question is, will Danny Valencia be good for Danny Valencia?
  19. Plouffe, there it is! Second deck!
  20. Milt Thayer reminds me of Mike Marshall back when he pitched most nights for Gene Mauch.
  21. Phil Hughes looks not too bad...
  22. Let's go, Kubes, it's your night! ...but maybe not your inning
  23. Look at the effect of all that speed!!! Mauer scores, Plouffe goes first to third on a sac fly!
  24. Stolen bases by Mauer and Kubel. Who had that in the pool?
  25. Man, do I like listening to Dick Enberg. What a great voice. He's one of my all-time favorites in the NFL, too.
