    Twins W-L record vs Boston in 2018: 3-1 (pre-trades)
  3. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I heard on the radio that Roberts was actually considering an opener for tonight, too.

    Madsen-Jeffress disorder: the irrational faith of a baseball manager in a relief pitcher who is clearly off his game. (see also: Molitor-Hildenberger syndrome, a milder form of the condition for teams that aren’t any good)* * yes I have been reading up on health stuff recently

    Barnes pitching to Barnes?
  6. Hosken Bombo Disco
    yeah, when you put it that way...

    someone explain to me why Cody Bellinger celebrates hitting into an inning-ending 3-2-3 double play but reaches base anyway when the catcher makes a poor throw back to first for an error...

    Man, Puig has been an absolute MVP this postseason
  9. Hosken Bombo Disco
    The extreme left: Yells at a politician in a restaurant. The extreme right: mass casualty shootings.
  10. Hosken Bombo Disco
    oh, you mean three weeks starting in April ?
  11. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Heard him on KFAN though Very genuine.
  12. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Good hire. I bet he can still knock one into the seats in left, too.

    Hey wait — wasn’t I scolded for citing Jeffress’s postseason stats when criticizing Counsell’s decision to use Jeffress?
  14. Hosken Bombo Disco
    did we ever hear the amount?
  15. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Boston leads game two, 4-2 after 7. My spidey sense is tingling, telling me this Series goes, oh, roughly 4 games, ya know, give or take a game. Five games tops.
  16. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Perhaps so, but I don't see how these things are any different that what other teams are doing. It's dressed up in really nice language but ultimately it sounds like jargon to me (and others). I'm sure you can see my point of view, even if you don't agree. If my skepticism crosses the line into the personal, I apologize. For your part, calling the things I and others were advocating for "absolutely incompetent" or "laughed out of the room" also seems a little demeaning. I will end by saying something positive about the front office: They have had two excellent drafts so far. (The Rule 4 variety, not Rule 5 )
  17. Hosken Bombo Disco
    The batted balls were well out of range (unless I am misremembering). You are correct though, he should have had that double play turned. Defense matters. Will be interesting to see if he gets the start tomorrow night against Price another lefty.
  18. Hosken Bombo Disco
    As am I. Thanks.
  19. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I guess the difference is that a lot of people here have bought in to the idea of "sustainability" and the front office's claim that they will field a championship-caliber team year after year. I don't buy it. I think it's just words, to placate ownership and the fan base. We'll see how much the players and fans care next year when they are 16 games out of first on July 27 next year instead of 7 games out. By the way, Milwaukee was 6 games out of first on August 28th of this year. The future is bright, but 2018 still had some life in it too. But 2019, not so much, in my opinion, fruitless yes I agree. 2020 should be better.

    Dozier batting lead off in Game 1 Good on ya Dave Roberts
  21. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Not quite sure I follow. Rosario, Escobar and Kepler carried the team thorough the first part of the season while the other guys either struggled to make plays or disappeared to the disabled list. Not sure we need to follow that tangent here. Yes I agree this may be Escobar's career season.
  22. Hosken Bombo Disco
    No doubt about it. I hope they found some future major league ballplayers in those trades.
  23. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Escobar was already a major leaguer. So not really, in my opinion. A better comparison to the Liriano-Escobar trade would be the Lynn-Austin trade.
  24. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I care. The players cared.
  25. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Eduardo Escobar is an exceptional human being. Relationships matter to him, and it should be little surprise that he offered a bargain up front to the team he was playing for, in order to avoid the uncertainty and cut throatedness of a free agency period. Best of luck to him!
