    Stretching a double into a triple is on the runner, not the third base coach, same as going first to third on a single. The decision to go for third is made before Rosario reaches second base, and is made by him as he judges the location of the ball and the outfielders.

    Concur.

    Lindsey Adler @lindseyadler The union had the right to appeal MLB's decision to put Domingo Germán on administrative leave but declined to do so, sources told The Athletic. Wow.

    The score is mostly irrelevant, but in fact the score was 2-1 when Eddie got thrown out at third base to end the inning. Steve Stone calling him out has nothing to do with any of this, by the way, other than it was a way to introduce footage, and as a side benefit, show that we're not the only ones who noticed. For the record, Steve Stone is one of the absolute best announcers in TV today, knows the game extremely well, and regularly calls out the Sox when warrented. He's pretty funny as well.

    If Pete had any business sense, he would'a turned hisself into a one stop shop for post season to-do's. He'd also lock down the market on the 6 mil plastic sheeting they use to waterproof the locker room, and stock up on cheap champaigne. Have some "Minnesota Twins 2019 ALC Champions!!!" T-shirts already printed and overpriced. Small time businesspersons stay small because they just don't see the big picture.

    Rocco must figure "he's due."

    Dick: The Twins are 3 for 8 in stolen bases in the second half," Chief: "The Twins have three steals in the second half?? Are you sure?"

    we got room for both, what with ALL THE TIME OFF ROCCO GIVES THESE GUYS!!1!
  11. USAFChief
    yes. Absolutely.

    I'm a pretty good lip reader...Montgomery to ump: "funk human!" Dunno why that got him tossed.
  13. USAFChief
    this ones easy...who comes out and PLAYS first.
  14. USAFChief
    start with all the times Det has faced MN and Cleveland, and vice versa.
  15. USAFChief
    I think we've seen what the narrative is.
  16. USAFChief
    a soft ground ball dribbled to third, dropped by the third baseman, who still gets Rosario by a mile? Its impossible for Rosario to have been running hard.

    If any plans on attending any AFL games, let me know and I'll see if I can drive up and join you.

    I don't think players can be fined for play under the CBA. They can be fined for off field activities, but not for bad play.

    Were this an isolated incident, it wouldn't bother me as much. A lot to like, but I've grown tired of Rosario's act. Every catch is an excuse to showboat (which has already resulted in one dropped ball this year). Wild throws that more than offset the good ones. He "styles" too much for my tastes. Lack of hustle out of the box. A lot in common with Yasiel Puig, IYAM. Really no option to bench him now though. I wouldn't mind an offseason trade.

    The slumping Castro has an OPS over 100 pts higher than Astudillo. He isn't even a fun story anymore.
  22. USAFChief
    Rosario got thrown out at third, with 2 out, in a one run game. It's inexcusable, and that's ignoring the fact he sat at home plate admiring his "shot." Bad play is bad play, and it's ok to point it out.
  23. USAFChief
    profoundly.
  24. USAFChief
    Idorizzi's stuff wasnt the greatest tonight? I thought he had fantastic stuff. Some nitpics on the game: the first run is on Arraez at least as much as Odorizzi, that "double" should have been caught. Pretty bad baserunning by Rosario getting thrown out at third. Get em tomorrow.

    I'll be shocked if Perez doesnt start a game 3. I'd have said Gibson, but I just dont think he's healthy enough to make the postseason roster. Couple starts potentially left in the regular season for Gibson, if he does well, it'll be him. I'd be very surprised by anything else than one of these two.
