    Just my opinion, but he was a very good player with one “generational talent” season. Never a generational talent. He might sneak in to the HOF, but it’s borderline IMO, and he’s hurting his case with every season instead of helping it.
  2. USAFChief
    Heh.
  3. USAFChief
    Alright Rodney. I’m ok with a boring experience.
  4. USAFChief
    Not really, in terms of the discussion, unless you could get a pinch hitter for him, available that AB. :-)

    The King of Ram commercials are...uncomfortable.

    Stew Thornley, one of the official scorers who works Twins games, used to stop by here and answer questions. They are instructed that if the play would require more than ordinary effort, not to score it as an error. Now I could get behind that in this case, if BERRIOS hadn’t made the play on that bunt. It was a really tough play. But once he did, theres no longer ANY kind of “extraordinary effort” involved whatsoever. It’s a routine throw for Mauer to catch. Less than routine. E3. If that throw came on a regular play from the SS and Mauer drops it, it’s an error. Why not on this throw?

    Berrios is done. Fabulous work, young man.
  8. USAFChief
    How can that be a hit. The throw hit Mauer right in the glove.
  9. USAFChief
    Gold Glover.

    Dick: “And ANOTHER big two out hit.” Me: “Another??”
  11. USAFChief
    Who’s going to pinch hit in your world?
  12. USAFChief
    Not to worry. Belisle is rested and ready.
  13. USAFChief
    Mauer with his patented soft flare to the left fielder.
  14. USAFChief
    You’re all welcome.
  15. USAFChief
    And I’ve apologized for that MANY times already! Geez!!
  16. USAFChief
    Ok, runs please. It’s Bartolo Colon frrpetesakes.

    Dozier is a great base runner, IMO. Maybe a little out of practice this year...

    I had to visit the doc last Friday. My memory has gotten...unreliable. So I talked to my doc about it. He told me that, unfortunately, memory loss is just one of those “aging” things, and there wasn’t anything he could do about it. He thought for a moment, then kindly reminded me about my unpaid $3000 bill from my last visit.

    I hated LaMarre on the roster before it was cool. :-)
  20. USAFChief
    I think the front office is reluctant to admit their plan for backups was flawed from the start. There was no option but Wilson when they needed a catcher. LaMarre as the primary reserve OFer. Adrianza on the 25 man, with nothing behind him so you get Motter. Etc etc.

    //checks baseballref// 136?? I had no idea it Was that high!
  22. USAFChief
    There is zero reason to take pitches against Colon. None. He’s not going to walk you, and you’re going to get fastballs. Swing the bat,.
  23. USAFChief
    Winner. So far.
  24. USAFChief
    Right down to the embarrassed grin as he skulked back to the dugout.
  25. USAFChief
    Yes.
