Here in Tucson we have 4 casinos, 2 each for the 2 native nations. They get some first class entertainment, too, and Mrs Chief and I like to take advantage. Last weekend one of them had a fantastic magician up from Mexico. I remember being so impressed, he told us he would disappear on the count of three, and just like that..."Uno! Dos!" and *poof* he was gone. Gone without a Tres.
Duffey needs to stay right where he is. Throwing a couple miles an hour faster, and able to go through an order one time flipping that big curve up there. That doesn't work the second or third time through, particularly with lower velo and no third pitch.
As a child, I wondered many things about the bible. Like...one time I asked my Sunday School teacher where Noah kept the bees. ... ... She told me "In the Arc Hives."
If it's 2nd and 3rd, no outs, they play the IF back, Polanco's gnd ball scores one, moves Kepler up. Castro's fly ball scores Kepler, it's 2-1 Twins, still batting. A major league 3rd base coach really shouldn't make that bad of a decision.
I thought we determined earlier that the issue was production capacity...the company that manufactures MLB balls doesn't have the capacity to produce enough for all the minor leagues too. I could be misremembering that.
