  1. Can't these young pitchers control their inside fastballs?
  2. I can understand the Miranda rest day if the wrist is still a bit sore from the HBP. A bit of a hole in the 4-5 spot with no Lewis or Miranda there.
  3. Did you just start watching this team last night?
  4. When you're at 105 pitches and you're 0-2 on a guy, stop frickin nibbling. Why is that so difficult for some of these pitchers?
  5. Oh great, here we go. Replay of last night.
  6. Oh I get that and I'd hope this group has learned from those mistakes.
  7. When you have someone this promising, you find a spot for him.
  8. Clean out the kid's locker in St. Paul cuz he's never going back there.
  9. I guess Willi didn't need that day off =)
  10. Same as Correa -- contusion, X-rays were negative.
  11. Nope. If Lee comes in to play the field, the pitcher has to take that spot. Same thing that happened with the Mariners on Sunday.
  12. We called it last night but didn't think it would happen in this way.
  13. I get that too. In a game that's probably out of reach, you burn the #8 guy. But in a 2-run game in the 7th, that win expectancy still has to be looking pretty good, especially with the way the Twins offense has been going. So you toss out the #7 guy (either Funderburke or Thielbar) and try your luck. I'd have preferred Staumont as he's been pretty good with a clean inning. Of course, given his return from the TOS, maybe he needs extra days rest between stints. And OK, I'll concede that guys like Alcala, Jax, Stewart, and Duran probably don't get more than their one inning but after seeing how Winder deteriorated so quickly with a runner on base, he didn't need to be out there in a 2-run game.
  14. Jayson Stark says it every week -- BASEBALL!!
  15. Well how about that. NOW YOU SEE WHY I COMPLAINED ABOUT BULLPEN USAGE????
  16. I can see what you're getting at but we saw Winder unravel after that infield hit. At that point, it's a 2-run game and it's only the 8th. Pressley and Hader aren't untouchable. Plus, at least it gets them into this game and maybe spoils them for the rest of the weekend. The inconsistency of Rocco taking out one reliever who throws a perfect inning in 10 pitches but letting a Winder situation happen speaks to me that he still has not grasped how to manage a bullpen scenario.
  17. One at bat too late there, Bux.
  18. Stewart threw BP today (and plunked Farmer in the process) and he got up around 95-96. I'd imagine he'll go to St. Paul next week and then we'll see him after the ASB.
