    Well it was handed a 1-1 tie.
  2. USAFChief
    Huh?
  3. USAFChief
    The Twins bullpen has now given up 25 runs in 10 June games. ERA for the season near 5, and it's worse than that if you take out Rogers. They went 6-4 on the road trip, but the cracks were visible and widening, and have been since April. This isn't news, even if the damage was minimized for a time through fortune, good to great starting pitching, and historically outrageous offense. There is no help in the minors. 30 year old rookies and failed minor leaguers getting a chance make for nice stories, but don't end up helping the team win important games. They passed on help this winter, and passed on potenial help in Kimbrel. I don't know what they should do. I'm not sure they can or will pay enough in prospects to seriously improve the pen. I know it won't be cheap, and several of the best trade pieces are hurt. Any ideas?
  4. USAFChief
    he's certainly auditioning for someone.
  5. USAFChief
    I'm firmly with you on hating the idea of a machine calling balls and strikes. Terrible idea that remove some of the beauty of the game, while probably not improving the strike zone at all.

    both Vogelbach and Seager got great swings off May.
  7. USAFChief
    PANIC!!!!!1!
  8. USAFChief
    Try the game thread.

    Baldelli apparently said in the post gamer Rogers wasn't available tonight. I'm reporting this second hand, as I don't get to see the post gamer.
  10. USAFChief
    Yeah, he had really good stuff tonight, I thought. But I wouldn't say he pitched well.
  11. USAFChief
    LOL. I guess we'll just have to disagree.
  12. USAFChief
    You're going to give Sano credit for a WP?
  13. USAFChief
    Let's not sugar coat this. May was extremely shaky. He gave up a solid single to Mallex (.598 OPS) Smith after getting ahead 0-2, because the count ran to 3-2 and everyone knew he would throw a FB near the middle. Solid single to the second hitter. On the edge of walking Encarnacion. Vogalback got a great swing at a FB and May was pretty lucky that was a popup. Seager got good swings.

    Field corn????
  15. USAFChief
    To the visitors showers.
  16. USAFChief
    oh, and WINNAH!
  17. USAFChief
    winner.
  18. USAFChief
    Not to worry, bullpen's got this.
  19. USAFChief
    May is such a tease. Great stuff, throws hard, good breaking ball, but he just can't maintain command for any length of time.
  20. USAFChief
    Man, Vogelback just missed that one.
  21. USAFChief
    I better learn in the post gamer that Rogers was unavailalble.
  22. USAFChief
    BTW...Trevor May???
  23. USAFChief
    I think perhaps you missed the sarcasm.
  24. USAFChief
    Shame on you.
  25. USAFChief
    Now you can substitute for Cruz on defense since we have the lead. ... .... that's the joke...
