He's that bad, I'm guessing?

I was thinking first inning challenges to gush about, but same diff.

The walk rates in AAA surprises me also. Another idea would be that some career minor league batters have such trouble at the plate that they might not want to swing at all sometimes. Or umpiring. Or maybe there is a Pacific Coast league bias with hitter-friendly ball parks where pitchers might be reluctant to throw strikes. All just guesses. It is interesting.

Go to Fangraphs. Even with last night's game in the books, Sano is outperforming Plouffe at third by a wide margin-- or a better way to say it would be that Plouffe is really underperforming this year. But we've seen enough of Plouffe to know that even before his injury he is getting worse at making plays to his right, and that's Sano's best play. A show of confidence in Sano full time as third baseman for the next couple seasons will be the best thing the Twins can do. The worst thing the Twins can do is try to juggle this for another season. Just my opinion, of course.

Twins doing in the 8th what they almost did in the 3rd - thanks yall
-
Great call by the third base ump
-
It's always good to have that insurance player on your roster

If you are talking about the Twins Daily company, I will retire the joke

Did Dick say if Ryan was going to answer his phone and listen, or would he just listen to the offers when it rolled to voicemail?
-
True. But...we know how this ends, right?
-
Dont worry, Ryan's got this.
-
Dick: Terry Ryan promises to be active in July before the trade deadline. He will listen to all offers made. And here all this time I thought "active" had a completely different meaning than that.
-
Ugh, I tuned in just in time to see that -- two of our best strike zone guys swing and miss at ball fours with the bases loaded and subsequently strike out.

when life gives you e4, give c5 right back /chess

Good game

Great base on balls by Grossman but this is where you really want a fast runner on first base

Managerial machinations....
-
Rosario!
-
And since the manager is usually closest to the lineup card in the dugout, and could have said something when Braun went up to the on deck circle, the manager apparently forgot that he switched them, too. Great job all around!
-
E-5 learning curve in progress And then Sano catches a pop up. That's using your head!
-
Did anybody hear a while ago Gladden say (slip out?) that teams have been calling about Vargas? I know, negativity police, I will show myself out back of the game thread and to the discussion boards.....
-
agree so maybe it's not exactly a heart warming story since Bush hurt a lot of people, but he hit absolute rock bottom and now he's back in the majors. There's gotta be some redemption in that worth mentioning.
-
not necessarily, but you will see it again and again on other occasions in the future There is always the condensed games MLB posts, the editors will surely leave it in there http://mlb.mlb.com/mediacenter/ It's the way he is rarely fooled by the flight of the ball and effortlessly covers so much ground
-
Totally agree
