  1. Well, Cleveland is having a bad year this year.
  2. How about: Santana best matchup Berrios Santana best matchup Berrios Santana
  3. I'm not sure what W-L record or position in the standings becomes acceptable for people before "trying to win" becomes a good goal. Only one poster that I recall has ever actually set a benchmark and then stuck to that bench mark when it rolled around. I'm not sure people realize that the Twins could be 10 games over .500 a year from now, or two years from now, and still be eight games back in the standings and clawing for a wild card anyway.
  4. Archer plays for the Rays, and the Rays are three games behind Boston.
  5. I hate when outfielders play shallow like that. Maybe the coaches positioned Rosario there based on batted ball data. If not, someone in the dugout should have told him to back up.
  6. Poppen has now made three starts for Ft. Myers, and he has been phenomenal. His first start was a two inning meet and greet against the Tampa Yankees. His second start was against the Palm Beach Cardinals -- eight shutout innings. This afternoon he made his third start, versus St. Lucie, and pitched six and a third scoreless innings, although an inherited runner did score in the seventh after Poppen left the game. His FSL stats so far: 3 games, 16.1 innings, one run allowed, 12 hits, 2 walks, 11 strikeoutsOne of Poppen's strikeouts today was against Tim Tebow, so there's that. Fort Myers has forty-some games remaining on their regular season schedule, putting Poppen in line for about 8 more starts this season.
  7. Beeker has made four starts since the Midwest League All Star game. June 25, at Quad Cities: 5.2 IP, 6 hits, 1 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 2 SO, 22 batters faced July 1 at Clinton: 6 IP, 6 hits, 1 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 5 SO, 24 batters faced July 7 vs. Peoria: 6 IP, 3 hits, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 3 SO, 23 batters faced July 14 at W. Michigan: 5 IP, 4 hits, 3 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 5 SO, 22 batters faced Obviously these are all very good stat lines. Beeker's control has held pretty well as the season has worn on and he's seen teams the second and third time through. Just as important, Beeker has not surrendered a home run in his four latest starts, something he has been prone to do at times. His top line season stats to date: 8-3, 2.66 ERA (link)
  8. Uncalled for scoreboard watching update: Oakland 5, Cleveland 0, Top 4th
  9. Thats a SSS because conclusions don't start to stabilize until about 500 viewings
  10. Twins win, Cleveland loses, game and a half back. Of course
  11. Gotta be a nerve wracking spot for him here
  12. Castro the Framer, giving the ump some lip about a close pitch that rung him up #ProbablyWontHelp
  13. Haha maybe Altuve will throw his glove on the ground again
  14. This stat needs to change right now
  15. The run expectancy with bases loaded zero outs is considerably more than 1, but fair enough
  16. no such thing, especially not that one
  17. Granite comes to bat between a rock and a hard place? edit: anything but a dp there
  18. It was a toss-up between that, and watching Rosario swing at a pitch that might have hit his shin, if he had the presence of mind to not swing at pitches three feet inside.
  19. Kepler Grossman Rosario out out out Bring it home, game threaders
