    Arraez would fit well on this Oakland team.
  2. PDX Twin
    That's the Robbie we remember: Gold Glove and Rubber Arm.
  3. PDX Twin
    Well, technically it WAS an inning...
  4. PDX Twin
    California team vs. Minnesota team. Berrios vs. Anderson. Just doesn't seem like the matching between pitches and states you'd expect.
  5. PDX Twin
    Shirley's next door. Shall I go and ask?
  6. PDX Twin
    Well, technically, one WP or BB wouldn't hurt, as long as there is an out.
  7. PDX Twin
    How about a 12-out save from Rogers?
  8. PDX Twin
    Unless they're the evening Fare (says the vegetarian who didn't like duck when he ate meat).
  9. PDX Twin
    Not yet.
  10. PDX Twin
    best ... or worst?

    Maybe someone with more knowledge can help me out on this one: Why is it no problem at all for a starter to throw 100 pitches every 5th day, but a reliever cannot throw 20 pitches every day, adding up to 100 pitches every five days? I get that something will be lost to warming up 5 times instead of 1, but the starter throws warm-up pitches every inning but the reliever only once or twice per appearance, which should mitigate some of that. But these days it seems like it is viewed as abusive to have a pitcher throw even 3 20-pitch outings in 4-5 days. Is it just empirical observation that RPs' effectiveness declines over the year with that level of usage? If so, would that be the case for all RPs or would some have more endurance than others? Is there some physiological basis for the difference in 5-day pitch counts? Help me out!

    I remember a lot of us having great debates about Garver vs. Stuart Turner, who was drafted in the same year. I think the Twins got this one right.Turner's career MLB average is .134 in 37 games with the Reds in 2017. This year he's hitting .163 with the Reds' AAA affiliate.

    I remember that in the 1950s they were still being called the "Redlegs." Maybe that was deemed politically incorrect...
  14. PDX Twin
    Nit-picking: The box score says that the Red Wings' score was 11-4.
  15. PDX Twin
    Found a way to lose a winnable game.
  16. PDX Twin
    Gibson's pretty good with the bat.
  17. PDX Twin
    Schoop simply has to hit into a TP here.

    The laws of probability say that probabilities cannot be negative.

    Maybe Littell can go about 4 today?

    The application of this simple idea to monetary policy won the Nobel Prize for two economists, one of whom was from the U. of Minnesota.

    No chicken in this veggie household, but an amazing pizza with sea beans, roasted garlic, gruyere, fontina, and mozzarella. (Followed by one with morel and oyster mushrooms...)

    I wonder if he takes the chance if it's a one-run lead. With three runs, you can dive knowing that if it ends up as a triple behind you it's only one run.
  23. PDX Twin
    If Kepler ever gets invited to the home-run derby, I wonder if he would ask Bauer to pitch???
  24. PDX Twin
    I just saw the StatCast feature on Cave's home run. Interesting note showing in how many MLB parks that would have been a home run. Neat feature.
  25. PDX Twin
    Slick DP. Who-to-What-to-Who, right? Or is it to-Whom?
