  1. Gladden just described the pitch to Puig (which resulted in the double) as "one of the few mistakes Pelfrey has made. Um....
  2. Everyone knows how difficult the Ethier-Uribe-Olive portion of the Dodgers lineup is, let's cut Pelf some slack
  3. I was trying to think of something more insightful than "duh" to say to this, but...duh! The question is whether they can keep up the plate discipline (namely, drawing walks) if the BABIPs start coming down. I sure hope so, as plate discipline is a skill that can be learned/taught, IMO
  4. I think the D should get a little blame here, and the starting pitching the teensiest bit less
  5. I did not realize it was that many pitches. How are the Twins only winning by 2?
  6. Just like Mauer to fail to drive in a run there.
  7. Oh I know, but it sucks that Nolasco's sorta okay start now looks absolutely horrible. And it sucks that the Twins can't field pop ups or ground balls properly.
  8. Nolasco getting screwed by the error "discretion" of the hometown scorekeeper.
  9. By mentioning the fact that I'm jinxing things, I'm actually reverse jinxing things...but I can't remember ever seeing the Twins' offense be this hot for this long.
  10. Why did Mauer only hit a single? Just like him to leave it for someone else in the lineup to get the big hit.
  11. Hi. Why did Tonkin only pitch 1/3 of an inning? Why did Thielbar only pitch 1/3 of an inning? Given that they both seem to be pretty good, seems like sort of a waste to use them like this in the 6th inning
  12. Don't worry, that long 1st inning was a blessing in disguise because Price will be all tight now...or something
  13. This is the fastest I've seen a game thread turn totally sarcastic/negative.
  14. Matt Capps is 30 now, and he was once traded for something that mattered, and he really wasn't much better than a setup man. Does that count? (yeah yeah, revisionist history.)
  15. I was thinking the same thing last night when I read some of these comments. If anything, I remember many, many loud voices saying Burton was "untouchable" or one of the guys we absolutely shouldn't trade...which seemed extremely silly to me. (Although I can't remember if the voices were as loud last season as they were two seasons ago.) This is why you don't sign relievers long term, and you don't hesitate to trade them if their value appears really high. They don't pitch enough innings to command the $$$ and they're too prone to hot and cold streaks given the nature of their roles
  16. I was just gonna say, that's an insult to hitters who are actually below average. Florimon is atrocious.
  17. This thread got way more active once the Twins started losing...disappointing or encouraging?
  18. Ump says "It's cold! Let's get outta here quick"
  19. My MLB.tv is being complete garbage tonight. Figured it was my PS3 connection but maybe not.
  20. Nothing like the sweet, sweet smell of playing not to lose.
  21. Is Florimon the worst bunter ever?
  22. I can't imagine the number of times he's skipped batting practice "because I've got this singles thing down cold!"
  23. Seriously. I'm assuming the money I pay to MLB.tv goes straight into Joe's no-HR-power pockets
  24. If Mauer were really worth $23MM he would have hit a HR there.
  25. Dozier following the footsteps of 2013 Willingham. OBP now 160 points higher than his AVG
