  1. I admit to giving certain players the "stink eye" in the last month. But I didn't think that would knock them out of the lineup...
  2. Um, why? The reservoirs are full and we'll get plenty in the winter. I'm just going to enjoy the perpetual sunshine while it lasts!
  3. Buxton and Gallo have now combined for 206 strikeouts vs. 93 hits and 68 walks. Both are racing south from the Mendoza line as fast as they can and have OBP < .300.
  4. If Gallo's OPS is satisfactory, but most of us see his performance as unsatisfactory, does that mean that we're wrong or is it possible that OPS is not a perfect measure of a better's value?
  5. Those are for breakfast, with cream cheese.
  6. At that salary, someone who's likely to yield a few runs.
  7. Yeah, but he would have swung and missed.
  8. No Kirilloff? No Julien? No Wallner? No reason to watch.
  9. The job of the manager and coaching staff is to make sure that the team gets the most out of its players. All of the comments above are about the fact that the Twins' hitters are underproducing. Does the staff not deserve blame for that?
  10. Of course they do. We are desperate for left-handed hitting outfielders.
  11. What must the starting pitchers be thinking. Before today, the best ERA in baseball and no winning record in a really weak division. When do we play Oakland? Might be worth watching.
  12. It seems like about half the time, the Twins' lineup is posted and the opponents' is not. Does Rocco just have a lineup rotation set a week in advance on his tablet and all he has to do (unless there is an injury) is hit "send"? Or, more generously, maybe he just works harder than the other manager and gets his assignment in early?
  13. Yup. For a guy with his range at SS, you'd think he could get down the line a little quicker.
  14. If the Twins are going to buy, they need to buy a "winner." Someone who does his best when the game is on the line and who can be a leader in the clubhouse. Could be a hitter or a pitcher, but they need someone on whom the rest of the team can lean, because right now they are all taking turns falling over each other when the pressure's on.
  15. And, with one exception, below .250.
  16. Going through our hometown last week (and past the soon-to-reopen DQ), my wife and I were remembering the nickel cone! The 25-cent cones were huge!
  17. How can Cuzzi call that a ball? Cuzzi doesn't know any better!
  18. Wow. The Royals are really a "work in progress." Or maybe a "work in regress." They even managed to be laughably terrible at what they are supposed to do well. (The running game.)
  19. So, what's going on with fireworks? It won't be dark when the game ends. Are they trying to get two admission charges?
  20. Given the gap of 20 years and the difference between a pitcher and a shortstop, the junior seems redundant in this case. With the Griffeys they were closer together and both outfielders. so it kind of made more sense.
  21. Wish I could! All the DQs near us in Portland have closed in the last couple of decades. I used to know all the locations in most of Oregon because it was my treat-to-self after refereeing three soccer games.
  22. Royals are missing MAT in centerfield on that one!
  23. Good things happen when Max goes the other way.
