    I was going to guess A is Colabello, and B is Mauer...but then I looked it up, and it can't be, because Colabello doesn't have a SLG of .894, and I didn't even need to look it up to know Mauer doesn't have a SLG of .699. So I give...who are they?
  2. USAFChief
    I hope he quickly establishes himself as a reliable, dominant late inning reliever and makes that decision really tough.
  3. USAFChief
    My guess is also a hitter. Probably Arcia. Please not Bernier.
  4. USAFChief
    I wonder if KC is sorry they pulled the plug on Davis as a starter, and are now "wasting" him as a one inning reliever. To me, waiting around for season after season for Meyer to suddenly be able to command three pitches well enough to be a good big league starter is most likely wishful thinking, not to mention a team in contention TODAY needs an infusion of bullpen talent. Leave him there, at least for 2015, and get him up here for a trial run. Stat.
  5. USAFChief
    Concur.
  6. USAFChief
    Concur. .257 OBP. .560 OPS. It's only a handful of ABs, and we all hope it gets better. I get that, but Lets wait till it actually does before giving him the most PAs on the team.
  7. USAFChief
    It's worth a shot to find out if there is LH help in AAA. Last night's game was pretty telling...the manager doesn't want to use his LH relievers. Time for Meyer to get a big league bullpen spot too.
  8. USAFChief
    I agree, but LH relief help is tough to find, and everybody's looking for it. StL is still trotting Randy Choate out there, who I watched pitch for the Tucson Toros for something like three years a decade ago after multiple big league seasons. He couldn't break a pane of glass even then. And yet, there he is, still collecting a paycheck as a LOOGY, because better options can't be found.
  9. USAFChief
    So...what's the solution?

    "Not you, Scottie. Not you, Number 2. Not you, Frau. Not you, Goldmember. Not you, guys back there. Not you, henchman holding wrench. Not you, henchman arbitrarily turning knobs, making it seem like you're doing something."
  11. USAFChief
    add short, tentative lead and "face plant of a slide" to the list, but yeah.
  12. USAFChief
    Pressly just kept rolling one fat curve after another to Beckham until even Gordon Beckham couldn't miss another one, despite being, y'know, Gordon Beckham.
  13. USAFChief
    Not quickly enough, you didn't.
  14. USAFChief
    "...right then and their" what?
  15. USAFChief
    I believe the hullaballoo was about 999 BC, not 1000. Changing of the thousands digit, y'know.
  16. USAFChief
    Fugly.
  17. USAFChief
    We've become the Sox.
  18. USAFChief
    Even Dickbert are second guessing Molitor.
  19. USAFChief
    Fortunately, he's not as good as you think he is either, Halsey!
  20. USAFChief
    Yup...and it was actually LaRoche and Cabrera for Pelfrey. EDIT: don't know if Coke is any answer, but something needs to be done. When the manager won't go to his lefty(s) in a situation that screams LOOGY, he's asking his GM for help.
  21. USAFChief
    I blame Chitown, what with her muting the power of the Olson twins 'n all.
  22. USAFChief
    Does anyone on the Twins know how to slide?
  23. USAFChief
    What you have here, is a manager with no confidence in his bullpen. It might work, it might not, but the right move here is to bring in a reliever. EDIT: didn't work.
  24. USAFChief
    Get through this half inning, I like our chances
