  1. He is sounding good on radio, sounds like he is mixing all his pitches, 3IP, 1 H, 1 W, 3 K
  2. yes, 2 , 9 inning games
  3. Well , i am hoping for a 9 inning no-hitter ...........but realistically, i am hoping he can get 5 innings and 3 runs or less and less than 6 hits and no more than 1 or 2 walks......................if he does that it will be considered successful to me, heck anything other than being shelled will be a success for coming up from Hi A...............................but even if he gets shelled , it wont change my current opinion of him, and it would let him know he needs work. I know i will be on my computer following gameday.
  4. Well, i was also flabbergasted that Nunez came back and Bernier stayed........but I was not happy that Vargas was not getting the AB's.........so even tho i would rather have him hitting at the MLB level, if he is only going to play a day or 2 a week, i would rather him stay sharp at AAA, and also force their hand.
  5. I also didnt make a prediction this yr, but i was HOPING for .500.............i think we make to many mistakes to probably get there, but I am hoping.........its funny if we win 7 in a row, and then lose 2 in a row, i still get pissed LOL..............and I should have a smile on my face cuz we were 7-2
  6. Well , i know PED are for strength, but are they not also for endurance during a long season, of 33-34 starts??? So with Santana only getting 16-17 starts , he shouldnt or wouldnt need the enhancement for this yr........so i dont think , IMO , that it hurts his performance this yr, but maybe for future yrs.
  7. I think you are correct in in the short term, and if either fails in their next start, i think things could change with in the week.
  8. I am one of those who wants to do what is best for the future, but also if the winning trend continues for another month, I want to try to win NOW.......................so with that said, I would personally bring up Milone, temporily keep starting May, and send Pelphrey to the bullpen(our bullpen pretty much sucks right now) and you know someone will come up lame in the next few weeks, then you let Pelphrey start again.......................or if May has another 2 or 3 game stretch of poor performance, you can then demote him and Pelphrey back to starting and bring up a DIFFERENT bullpen arm. There is my 2 cents
  9. Hu is the opposing pitcher???? I thought he pitched for us????
  10. Thanks, nice to know what is going on in Extended, anything on the position players??
  11. Well I only seen him once in person, 2013 Cedar Rapids, and he played first.......to me he looks like John Olerud, so maybe our 1B man of the future after Joe Mauer contract is up..............Even tho he hasnt hit over the last couple yrs, or at least not consistently, we only seem to hear good things about his future. and he is having a great start to this yr.
  12. I like that guess, but I will say Felix Jorge.
  13. Will the Cedar Rapids games be 9 innings, or the conclusion of first one 9 and the second one 7??
  14. I think in Redmond's case he has to take the first job offered, his name was not really out there as far as managerial candidate when he was hired, if i remember right , he was someone thought would be a good manage SOMEDAY, so now he has had his chance and i think most people believe he did a good job and will be a manager again in a couple yrs if not sooner, but now for the next 2 plus yrs, he can take any job he wants and will still get paid, or no job at all.
  15. Means absolutely nothing to me either, Washington is playing as well as anyone right now, and were suppose to be number 1 with that pitching.
  16. We were only down 3-1 going into this inning, have a day off tomorrow, why not use your best pitchers, Thompson over Duensing if you are going to use a lefthander, and I guess now it doesnt matter, now that Tonkin hasnt done much, and we really only have 3 Relievers we can depend on right now, Perkins, Boyer(incredibly) and Thompson.
  17. Can we dismiss him after today?????? I have no idea what manage was thinking going to Arb with him, what we paying him $2.5M????
  18. Where is the Stick the Fork in him, about Duensing, oh yea, right, no one really cares about him LOL......c'mon Duensing, get out of this, dammit!!!!!
  19. Duensing in, i have always liked him, but i didnt think we should have signed him this offseason, but i have no confidence in him, he has been replaced by Thompson in my opinion.
  20. Nice article, like many others i am sure, I wonder why Ortiz is not in any prospect circles, he is only 25 also, same as Hicks.
  21. That intentional walk worked, NOT!!!!
  22. I dont understand the intentional walk there
  23. I dont think Bradley's minor league K rate was high 18% (I dont know what is considered high, lol). But I wouldnt give up a May or Gibson for Bradley, but it was said that , supposedly Boston had said they would trade Bradley to Seattle for their LOOGY, and I would be happy to trade a player like that for Bradley.
