    All five current Twins starters have a WHIP under 1.3

    I'd pick Kershaw, but that's not the relevant comparison. The relevant comparison is, " who would you pick to start every fifth game from here on out in 2015...Pelfrey or whoever takes his place in the rotation if they trade him now?" I'd pick Pelfrey.

    Nobody's making the case it's ALL that matters. Except perhaps you.

    What would be the reasoning for this? Why would a team in contention trade two starters away? Heck, Why would a team in contention trade two starters for two top A-ball prospects, much less two C+ prospects? That makes no sense to me.

    Did they use whatever information they obtained to gamble on baseball? If so, yes. If not, probably not. Gambling is just about the most damaging thing thàt can happen to a sport. When people perceive games are decided ahead of time, you have pro wrestling.

    Good results tonight, and perhaps the command was a bit better, but I thought he was more fortunate than good.
  7. USAFChief
    I rather like inter league play, myself.
  8. USAFChief
    But do they have "all kinds of RP options" who can actually be counted on to get big league hitters out, in 2015? I'm not at all sure they do.
  9. USAFChief
    Now there's an intriguing name.

    -1000 points for a "Back to the Future II" reference.

    They should leave him in the pen, start giving him back to back one inning appearances, and have him in the big league pen within a week or two. This doesn't seem difficult to me.
  12. USAFChief
    Yes, this can't be said enough.
  13. USAFChief
    Not to mention, no team in baseball is going to trade a starting pitcher, who is performing well while the team is in contention, for an A ball lotto ticket. No team. I'll say again...if TR were to do that, he should be fired immediately.

    "It just so happens that your friend here is only MOSTLY dead. There's a big difference between mostly dead and all dead. Mostly dead is slightly alive. With all dead, well, with all dead there's usually only one thing you can do."

    I'm at work as well, earbuds in, pretending TD isn't minimized on my screen...
  16. USAFChief
    You recognized the "cause and effect" just in time. Well played sir! Well played!!
  17. USAFChief
    Stranger than fiction, and all that...
  18. USAFChief
    winnah!

    I tried that exact reference when Mauer hit his HR in extras in Pittsburgh. Nobody got it then, either.
  20. USAFChief
    ...
  21. USAFChief
    Not to worry, Mauer's got this.
  22. USAFChief
    Then you'll just have to take my word for it.
  23. USAFChief
    sigh. Don't bunt.
  24. USAFChief
    If you fall behind a LH hitter with power, two out and nobody on, late in a scoreless game, with a RH hitter on deck, one thing you don't want to do is throw a pitch that can be pulled for a HR. A walk ain't the end of the world.
  25. USAFChief
    We'll have to agree to disagree on that. I don't give a rat's behind if baseball team A is too stupid or lazy to prevent baseball team B from peaking under their dress. I think the FBI has more important crimes to devote time and tax money to.
