  1. once Gibson is named to the roster, he's subject to use. There's a reason they took 12 pitchers, they're all needed. And at least Romo, May, and Rogers haven't thrown a pitch in a game we lost.
  2. 4 hours? You'll be able to catch the 8th and 9th innings.
  3. Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor??!?1!!?? Let's go!
  4. Maybe Dobnak goes 6 strong tomorrow, but that's not really my point. You wouldnt build your team counting on that. Nor would you count on your minor leagues providing a huge part of your October bullpen.
  5. The series isnt over, but as has been true in the past, the Twins appear built to compete in the ALCentral. The Yankees are built to win the WS. We're starting Randy Dobnak in game 2 of the NLDS. Littell and Stashak asked to pitch in Yankee Stadium. Compare that to the other team.
  6. Twins threw 193 pitches tonight. Throw the GD ball over the plate. Pitch ahead. Attack. If they hit it, so be it. But stop being strike zone shy
  7. Note: it's a one way ticket. If it works, we'll talk about the return.
  8. Castro is also a way better defensive catcher. The fascination with the Turtle is confounding.
  9. No, I don't think so. There's a discussion, it's the manager's decision.
  10. It's official, Rocco just announced post game that Dobnak will start game 2.
  11. eh...I'm sure Rocco's getting data, but I'm also pretty sure lineup decision rest on the manager. I don't think you put blame on Falvine for Arraez starting tonight. And I'd say Gibson would never see the mound if the Twins were tied or ahead, unless he's the last guy left standing in an extra inning game.
  12. It's like Gardy never left. Questionable manager decision before game starts, check. Early lead, check. Two scorless innings from your stater takes almost 50 ptiches, check. Poor fielding fuels Yankee big inning, check. We can't lay off ball four, they can, check. A few bad calls here and there, check. Our bullpen pees it's pants, check. Game over. check.
  13. http://en.chrono-tm.org/wp-content/uploads/spoiled_chicken_811441-1.jpg no, you get your chicken all right, it just ain't gonna be very appealin'
  14. Do you think a RH Yankee starter might have some influence on that?
  15. Sweet, I'll have great seats too, since I will have won the Powerball for a few hundred mil.
  16. Perhaps 1 stress free inning won't preclude Chapman from pitching tomorrow, but a second inning, after a high stress, bases loaded situation, would put Duffey out of action the next game. And we were BEHIND.
  17. Possibly, but I don't know if Adrianza is healthy either. I suspect he's not, but there weren't a lot of better options for the post season roster.
  18. Schoop should have started at 2nd base tonight. This game would be a lot closer if he had.
  19. And then another, and then another BOOM!
  20. I think you HAVE to start Dobnak tomorrow. I don't want to take the chance of coming home down 2-0, and relying on Dobnak to keep the season alive. I'd take my chances with him tomorrow, and save Odo for Monday.
