    I thought they closed those after the 9th inning?

    No costume parties tonight?

    Why pay money when you can watch it, over and over, for free? If you remember, Molitor pulled Rosario out of the game the next half inning after this play. http://m.mlb.com/video/topic/6479266/v710269083/detmin-rosario-swipes-third-in-the-7th/?game_pk=447467 The title of the page "Rosario's heads-up base running" might be a little misleading if you believe like Molitor does that Rosario was wrong to take the extra base they were giving him.
  5. Hosken Bombo Disco
    On the other hand, lots of commenters do provide data about that and offer the successes.
  6. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Molitor was a roving minor league instructor for almost a decade.
  7. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Rosario is extremely talented but young and still learning what is possible at the major league level.
  8. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Great article. Looks like Rosario was trying to do too much on that play, so I'm not sure what Molitor's problem is. I thought Molitor said would rather pull a guy back from being too aggressive than have to get a guy stirred up. I doubt Rosario will ever be a great hitter but not everyone in the lineup needs to be a great hitter. He is good in the field. I hadn't checked on his UZR and didn't realize it was that high.

    You are right-- It reminded me of all the Gatorade baths back to 2013. It was usually Plouffe and Arcia dumping the bucket on Dozier.
  10. Hosken Bombo Disco
    It could work, and Mauer's mini-resurgence perhaps has coincided with taking more days off, so there's more playing time for others. If Sano was hitting better in this time share arrangement I might feel better about it. I'm ready to jump off the deep end with Sano at 3B full time and give him a lot of rope. If at some point they decide it's not working, you pick up a guy like Plouffe in FA or trade or try Polanco or a minor league guy might be ready.

    Ted, do you know the family personally? In that case I can certainly understand this being a little bittersweet for you and/or other folks who have really gotten to know him and like him over the years.
  12. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Good question. With Plouffe's poor season, it would be hard to imagine him winning an arbitration ruling.
  13. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Surely you realize that Brooksie's defensive metrics are better than Plouffsie's, right?
  14. Hosken Bombo Disco
    ?? Are you saying Antony was offered Trout for Buxton? I'm not sure I would make the trade for those pitchers anyway. Better to develop your own draft picks, as you implied by mentioning Sanchez.
  15. Hosken Bombo Disco
    As was pointed out in the article, he traded Syndergaard.
  16. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I think this is the org you meant to link to. http://www.bulwer-lytton.com/winners.html

    MLBTR quote from back on August 31: "The long balls that the hulking slugger drove during BP didn’t quite continue when he faced live pitching, scouts noted to Davidoff — who says the scene actually became a bit awkward as it unfolded."
  18. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I feel like he would trade Buxton or Sano, though.
  19. Hosken Bombo Disco
    What would people think about when after St. Peter announces the hire of the President of Baseball Operations, that right afterward Antony will be announced as the interim GM for another season--not interested in how anybody feels about such a move, but what the possibility of it might be. Do bosses like a new POBO make big firings right away, if they are from the outside? Do they bring teams of executives with them? Would the Twins hire a guy who would bring his own team with him?
  20. Hosken Bombo Disco
    We do, but we have to play him in center field.
  21. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Drew Butera's reaction when learning the Twins are interested in a reunion: http://cache4.asset-cache.net/gc/495323366-wade-davis-of-the-kansas-city-royals-gettyimages.jpg?v=1&c=IWSAsset&k=2&d=X7WJLa88Cweo9HktRLaNXoJXGXv2C2tm9E%2BSFj%2BDhG1ECFJy8rRlGY9KqAUCnVR7%2BFhsZZz4WVvMZ%2Ffw%2Bv7JuA%3D%3D
  22. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I was not aware of that -- thanks. Then he should have just come out of the game between innings. My opinion is he should just keep walking!
  23. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Step back out of the box, take a breath or two, buy some time. Maybe try a light practice swing.
  24. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Injured or not, I really don't care for how he just walked off the field last night, but that sure is a nice picture of his physique http://www.newhealthadvisor.com/images/1HT00901/Oblique%20Muscles.jpg

    Thanks jokin! I'm guessing a lot of the clicks are from people who already commented on a thread. After commenting on another person's blog, I have clicked there dozens of times afterward just to keep up with the discussion. (Maybe not dozens but a lot.) I was posting the above in the forum thread but it started to feel and look like complaining, so I took ChiTowns advice and moved it to a blog--and made it longer
