    We could see from here Lee didn’t touch the bag?
  2. Hosken Bombo Disco

    Jeebus, Ebbie Calvin LaLooshe* out there for another inning *the early minors years

    oof… not sure what emoticon to give this one

    First of all, I love Lewis… but he might have the first two slots on that list now.

    Didn’t Carew have a sit-down with Buxton this offseason? Not sure, Maybe wouldn’t hurt?

    I wouldn’t even want this pitcher waiting in the wings on our AAA Saints team … obligatory: I’m sure he’s a helluva guy in the clubhouse

    womp womp /sad trombone

    Gotta suck when you miss a HR foul by inches. I hated that when it happened to me… that one time

    Manfred needs to install a “warning apron” like in golf, that warns outfielders the warning track is near

    These A’s pitchers, I dunno man.. that Lopez guy was horrific, close your eyes and sling it up there, bring him out one more inning! i think the only strike he threw was called a ball lol
  14. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I am not predicting a sweep, but last night was probably the A’s best chance at a win this series. (I am assuming the good Pablo shows up tonight.)

    They wanted to see how he came out of the rest day……

    The Twins will probably want to call up Julien again at some point, maybe even playoff time. When they do, they should tell him not to bring his glove, because he’s never playing in the field again. And that’s not a knock on Julien, because I think the person who would be happiest to hear that would be Julien himself. The players know these things. Make a joke of it and hold a fake bonfire in the clubhouse when he’s called up again. In the late innings of a one run game, when you need a leadoff hitter to reach first base, there aren’t many other players you would rather have up, than Eddie Julien (when he’s the good Julien, that is) Miranda.. is probably a change of scene candidate, yup.

    True, I smudged a bit to make my case but all things considered, I see the real possibility there of him being used at whatever infield position they need him (ie, “utility player) even though he isn’t that, not right now. My opinion is Lewis wants to be “the guy” somewhere. His reticence to playing second being a symptom of something else. Maybe comparable to the Sonny Gray situation, maybe not. Players employ agencies to rep them, and MLB teams like the Twins employ several sports psychologists nowadays, so the argument that he needs to “accept it” doesn’t hold as much water as it once did for me. It may be true, but the cost is a talented but unhappy player who isn’t getting right. A team doesn’t want that. As jorgenswest mentioned, Lewis had some loud contact the last series, so maybe he goes on a tear and the question answers itself. Bottom line is when you are standing in the box waiting for a pitch, that should be your focus, and the outside distractions shouldn’t be there.

    The injuries haven’t helped Lewis and his case, for sure. His appearances in games have usually been at 3B and DH. But they asked him to play second base, and fans even want to move him to first base. In other words, a utility infielder. So, not to be snarky, but I don’t really know what you mean by “what do you even mean”—it looks to me they are conditioning him to be a utility guy, right? I think as of May of 2025, the ideal infield they want is Lewis at 3B and Lee at 2B. But if you zoom out, it becomes clear to me that they don’t know what to do with everyone. Correa, Lewis, Lee, Miranda, Julien, Kirilloff, and now Keaschall, have all been described in this forum as infielders of the future. That’s more guys than there are positions for, even after the trades of Arraez, Polanco, Steer. If you trade Lewis it’s one less body to worry about.
  19. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I agree with Peter but not for the same reasons—I wish the front office would trade him. Trade him to a team that believes in him instead of keeping him around and handling him like a utility player with a bad attitude. Though I think that last part is mostly a media creation. Secondary and tertiary effects being seen here. Think of the pitching Lewis could have returned. Like Rosario and Dozier, I think Lewis has CHAMPION written all over him. Or did at one point. Would have liked to see this play out if they had shown faith in him like these other teams did with their SS Bobby Witt, Gunnar Henderson, Zack Neto, Volpe who the NYY fans don’t like but is quietly doing well, etc. But we can’t go back, so trade him.

    In other news, it’s kind of harsh what people are putting KAT through on social media
  21. Hosken Bombo Disco
    #MinnesotaSports pull them off the court before there are crimes (joking, sorta)
  22. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Honestly, give him a foul to remember (Caveat: not advocating violence, and maybe someone has already done that; i don’t follow this super close)
  23. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Two tough defenses. OKC has been tenacious all night, and once the 3s started dropping, it was all over. It’s going to be a boring series if every game just boils down to perimeter shooting. I think someone on the wolves needs to give a huge shove* to someone on OKC early in game 2. The physicality is ridiculous. *body shove
  24. Hosken Bombo Disco
    We need to channel Gardy for this one: Larnach - Trev Lee - Brooksie Bader - Bade Lewis - Roycie Buxton - Buck France - Frenchie Wallner - Wally Ober - Obesie Ryan - Joey Sands - Sandsie Jax - Jaxie Jeffers - Jeffie

    Hope that is helpful! lol
