  1. Hildenberger has been our best guy lately. Bringing him in trailing by three runs after he had pitched the day before was a really questionable move.
  2. No one remembers the conversations Mauer and Gardy used to have about this very situation?
  3. For the record, Dan Gladden predicted Gibson would go seven strong innings and get the win.
  4. That means he's not due to give up another homer all year --- sequencing!
  5. I know we just swept Arizona, but our pythag record for the last three games is quickly approaching 1-2
  6. You are right. How could I forget the Big Sexy? pitched yesterday
  7. Gee, Gibson and Slegers lined up for the rest of the series
  8. it least that wipes the f**n' smirk off the kids face #silverlinings
  9. If you had used one in the earlier innings, instead of saving them, maybe the outcome of the game would have been different?
  10. But I presume he was warming up before coming in, and then threw his warmup tosses when he entered the game, and his outing might have gone longer, so I think the poster makes a good point. But you are right he will be available tonight.
  11. Stinker tonight. Unlike the front office, I have not chiseled Colon's name in stone to finish the season.
  12. You are right, this is not the place to rant against a flawed statistic.
  13. With all due respect, this is a contradictory statement. I looked at his game logs. He has not run into any trouble. He has been the same weak contact ground ball machine in Washington that he was here. I would buy the FIP stat here if it was, say, 0.50, or something below 1. But his FIP with Washington is currently 2.85, so I can't buy it. I don't know which outing those two theoretical runs came from.
  14. Not sure if you're dissing me, or the stat If the point is to reflect a true ERA, then FIP should reflect the ERA, as it is, even in minimal amounts. Kintzler has not come remotely close to allowing a run to score (at least by reading the box score), yet FIP says that two runs should have scored off him by now.
  15. Kintzler update: Leaving aside the buy v. sell debate, Kintzler is 2-0, with a 0.00 ERA in 7 appearances with Washington. However, his FIP is 2.85 I half-way understand the concepts of BIP, sequencing, etc., but even in small samples shouldn't FIP at least nominally reflect ERA, or what is actually happening on the field? Carry on.
  16. I think teams have something on Berrios. The Twins need to identify what that is.
  17. It's second guessing but too bad Molitor didn't pinch run for Sano at some point last night for the purpose of getting his bat out of the lineup. I don't see anything wrong with that double play; Sano looked home but threw to first in the same motion. There was a millisecond delay but maybe Sano was just getting a good grip. The guy on the radio made it sound like Sano was frozen undecided about where to throw while runners circled the bases behind him. Wasted opportunity in the 9th, no doubt. Game felt over after that strikeout. Interesting call by Molitor Sunday to judge that Mauer needs a day off today more than Sano does. Also, what did Jason Castro say to Berrios on that trip to the mound in the first inning? The next pitch was the grand slam!
