    If you look up "Schlub" in Funk and Wagnals there's a picture of Stroman.
  2. USAFChief
    Dismal. Lah-who, Zah-her.
  3. USAFChief
    Eddie just doesn't have soft hands. Never will. He's been better at 2nd. But he just wasn't born with soft hands. WAY down the list of immediate or long term issues, though.
  4. USAFChief
    Castro. Again. Feet stuck in cement as an easily catchable ball sails over his head.
  5. USAFChief
    And as noted, can't blame it on the lineup tonight. Can't chalk it up to a good opposing pitcher.
  6. USAFChief
    IT'S MARCUS STROMAN FFS!
  7. USAFChief
    What an awful pitch to Judge.
  8. USAFChief
    It's Marcus Stroman FFS. He is the definition of mediocre at best. Do something.
  9. USAFChief
    Men against boys. And jeez, Lopez. Could you possibly pitch any worse?
  10. USAFChief
    Holy **** Castro. That's at least 3 misplays in 11 innings.
  11. USAFChief
    Ambush that 1st pitch fastball. middle middle not a good idea.
  12. USAFChief
    Ouch
  13. USAFChief
    86 PAs of .175/.190/.213 Yeesh
  14. USAFChief
    Small sample size, but Delmon Young is easily better than.what Martin has showed.
  15. USAFChief
    False. Ohtani, Betts, Freeman, Hernandez play almost every day. Will Smith has more PAs than any Twin. There is zero evidence "load management" is beneficial. There are teams playing their best players virtually every day. As they should.
  16. USAFChief
    You know who doesn't worry about "workload management?" The Dodgers, Braves, Yankees and Orioles. The four best teams in the game. If their best players are healthy, they play. Every day.
  17. USAFChief
    Martin has been among the worst outfielders I've seen in my 60+ years of watching the Twins. Inconceivably bad.
  18. USAFChief
    And those of us who had ALREADY paid for those games lost them, and were expected to pay for yet another service. There is zero chance Roku ends up free, BTW. Streaming services aren't free, at least not for long.
  19. USAFChief
    "Rushed up to MLB so soon"??
  20. USAFChief
    You remember correctly. And all it accomplished was to decrease the number of people able to watch, and piss them off. I know, because I was one of them, and complaints were loud and numerous on Gopherhole. Peacock isn't free, BTW. Splintering coverage is a stupid idea.
  21. USAFChief
    Martin has been among the worst outfielders I've seen in 60+ years of Twins baseball. Absolutely awful. He's been directly responsible for multiple runs already and that is tough to do in a few weeks. And that's on top of a mid-.600s OPS with zero power. Get him back to St Paul, ASAP.
  22. USAFChief
    Heh. Examine that statement, closely.
  23. USAFChief
    Tonight's outfield play by the Twins was not major league. Castro was awful, and the Twins can't continue to run Martin out there. To top it off, tonight's lineup was about as weak as you'll ever see from a MLB team.
  24. USAFChief
    that's slighly misleading since the Twins have played fewer games than all but 2 teams. Going into tonight's game the Twins had the 26th most innings pitched. Over 30 innings behind San Diego, who leads MLB. It would follow then that the Twins would have fewer relief IP. But I agree Baldelli generally follows current orthodoxy regarding starter innings.
  25. USAFChief
    Leave it to RpR to make us all chuckle with some nonsense.
