    Run(s), please.
  2. USAFChief
    I believe it took till game 3 to give up an 0-2 hit. Progress.
  3. USAFChief
    Yeah, they didn't even let him warm up, so how could he know?
  4. USAFChief

    ruh roh.
  6. USAFChief
    I did. And I'd hate for it to go to waste. Those blank betamax tapes are getting harder and harder to find.
  7. USAFChief
    Dunno. Give it a shot. If you run into problems, there's probably a "help" feature.
  8. USAFChief
    I would imagine it's not often that most of us type Quebec.
  9. USAFChief
    too easy... Yes.
  10. USAFChief
    Shouldn't you be doing homework or something?
  11. USAFChief
    Not to worry, we would never ask you for anything unreasonable. No need to hang out at the liquor store. Just spend the next 3 hrs driving back and forth.
  12. USAFChief
    pitch out, caught stealing. Showalter* schools Molly. *Edit: sorry, spelled that wrong. "Sherwalter."
  13. USAFChief
    I'm not sure, hoping for confirmation.
  14. USAFChief
    First inning runs would be nice.
  15. USAFChief
    Reminds me of last night. I issued a fragrant. Mrs Chief sent me to the penalty box, too.
  16. USAFChief
    A round of applause for Willihammer's great game thread intro work, getting us off to a great 2016 start!
  17. USAFChief
    The bench is one way the Twins self-imposed salary cap really comes into play. A team like the Red Sox is paying Chris Young $6.5M to be a 4th OFer. Can you imagine the Twins doing something similar with their bench?
  18. USAFChief
    I disagree with the idea that bunting for a hit occasionally is a bad idea. (Except with 2 out, which is almost always a bad idea.)
  19. USAFChief
    I watched the game. Until either Dozier or Molitor specifically says "it was a straight sacrifice," my opinion won't change just because an official scorer might have given him credit for a sacrifice. It was a bunt for a hit. Perhaps he bunted for a hit with the idea that at worst, it advances a runner.
  20. USAFChief
    Because it's not reasonable to expect a runner to anticipate being out? It's not reasonable to expect a runner to " effectively disappear?" And sliding directly into second is probably as close to "disappear" as IS reasonable?
  21. USAFChief
    As do I.
  22. USAFChief
    I think you have that backward. Taking pitches that aren't strikes is an important skill. But ultimately, like all hitters, it's what he accomplishes when he DOES swing that matters.
  23. USAFChief
    Absolve him of what? I have no problem with occasional attempts at bunt hits. I have no problem with this specific play. I wouldn't want the manager to tell his players never to bunt.
  24. USAFChief
    I still pinch hit for Suzuki.
  25. USAFChief
    It wasn't a sacrifice. He bunted for a hit. And I'd wager 10-1 he bunted on own.
