  1. Could use a good start from Duffey here.
  2. He's going to need to do better than the 1 inning stint if he's going to see 5.
  3. And Ron Davis.
  4. Grab the refrigerator box. Room for a nice loft.
  5. "...the season is likely over..." I know. I just sometimes have a hard time accepting "mostly dead" as "all dead."
  6. Fair enough. I do think it means if he's an MLB pitcher, it's going to be as a reliever though. Short stints, regular work, reduced pitch mix, couple extra MPH.
  7. Dry. Dry humor. My kind o' guy.
  8. I have something against blaming Molitor. And I don't particularly like Molitor. EDIT: And I'm pi$$ed off that a season that I had been looking forward to, appears to be in serious jeopardy before May 1st, so perhaps I'm not viewing things totally objectively.
  9. Proven veteren pitchers often have the wheels fall off if they skip a start? No. No they don't. If they do, they never get the chance to be "proven veteren starters." The "too much time off" thing is a canard, as far as I'm concerned. It has nothing to do with anything. Nine days is not too much time off.
  10. Or, he put Meyer back out there to have a chance to pitch a clean inning, with the "nerves" relaxed a bit, and rebuild a little confidence. The excuse making for Meyer is...excuse making. You want to be a big league pitcher? Perform like one. It ain't Molitor's fault.
  11. I imagine that would have went over well with the board, too. In any case, he sat an extra 4 days. He would have waited five days minimum between starts in Rochester, so they essentially skipped a start. If that's enough to throw his entire game off, you're right. He should be in AAA, and he should rot there, because he's not a big league pitcher.
  12. I keep Molitor, if forced to chose one.
  13. What would you suggest he have done? Bring him into a winnable 1 run game, so he could put up that performance and actually cost the team a game? If anything, he put him into a situation where he should have felt as little pressure as possible. The game was pretty much over. He STILL crumbled like a 2 week old cracker.
  14. Does Alex Meyer bear NO responsibility for his resutls? He did the same last year.
  15. That's one way of looking at it, I guess.
  16. He'd be throwing in the bullpen between starts anyway.
  17. I can't see any possible way Alex Meyer is a reliable big league starter. None.
  18. See? Huge difference between Meyer and Fein. Meyer is taller.
  19. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
  20. If by picture, you mean "cave drawing," then maybe.
  21. Good use of the arb process on Fein, Mr Ryan.
  22. Meager crowd here for tonight's game thread. I wonder if all the regulars are at Target Field. ... No, that's not it.
  23. Baseball? It amazes me the human race was able to procreate.
