    You would have to ask Mauer, Molitor, and/or the third base coach on that, no?

    Actually, he said he doesn't know if it was a missed hit and run.

    I don't want to say I hate you, but I'd consider unplugging your life support to charge my phone.

    Chief's pointer: Be careful about setting precedents that need to be exceeded each and every year. You're welcome.

    Shameless plug: there are lots of July gmes in need of volunteers for game thread duty. Take a look at the volunteer thread, pick out a game or three, and PM me. That's an order, meat!

    All this talk of chicken Dinnah makes me sad...not a lot of those being served around here these days.

    First, I was addressing the idea that its pointless to pick up good players when you have a bad team, not Lucroy specifically. I disagree with that philosophy. Strongly. You get better by adding better players, not by waiting until you have better players. But in the specific case of Lucroy, he has a $5M 2017 team option, so it's 1.5 seasons, not .5, and any deal could be contingent on an extension if that helps. And he's a good player, age 30 or not. What's pointless is thinking the Twins minor league system is going to turn this franchise around, on its own.

    I couldn't disagree more. Waiting around for things to fall in place by themselves is how you get into messes like this. With some luck and some aggression, 2017 doesn't have to be written off. I hope they don't think in terms of 3 to 5 years from now. That's not a plan, that's an admission they don't have a plan. I'd rather they try and fail, than sit around hoping things fix themselves.

    Not to pick on you, but I often see this sentiment expressed in one form or another, which in my mind equals "it's pointless to get better players until we get better players." That has never made sense to me.

    In reconstructing an inning to determine if runs were earned or unearned, you never assume a double play. So even if you account for an out there, it wouldn't have ended the inning, and a run would have scored.

    Good morning. Good afternoon. Good night.
