    I wish that were the case...but it's pretty regular, no matter who's on the mound. Start counting the next couple games.

    Were I financially in a different stratosphere, I'd be bidding on that curling stone. What a cool thing to have.

    That's around a half dozen balls that have hit Garver in the glove tonight and yet somehow ended up in the dirt, or behind him. I have never seen a big league catcher with hands that bad.

    Another nearly half dozen pitches tonight that hit Garver in the glove, but ended up on the dirt. Hands of stone.

    And nice job, Blake!!

    Not to worry, they do that with my pacemaker sometimes too.

    Here are the batting averages for the Twins for Sunday's game at Seattle: .234 .254 .200 .298 .270 .200 .214 .143 .157 I've been around a while, and that's one of lowest collections of BA's I've ever seen for a MLB team more than a week or two into a season. No hyperbole. Perhaps that's what the poster meant.

    I don't think there's much to be learned by comparing the NFL and MLB drafts. They are completely different animals.

    See what he has?? He's 35 yrs old. Also, Garver's "long term development?" He's 27.
  10. USAFChief
    Pfft. They never came to my town.
  11. USAFChief
    Typhoons spin backwards, no? Perhaps therein lies an explanation.
  12. USAFChief
    That “career .408 OBP” is 233 PAs in two years combined of the DSL and AZ rookie league. It comes with a .253 BA and .322 SLG. He’s not really worth mentioning in this deal.
  13. USAFChief
    There’s no need to scoreboard watch, the Twins offense so seldom changes it.
  14. USAFChief
    Trying to stay positive. I’m positive this isn’t going to end well.
  15. USAFChief
    It’s a rigged competition. The bottom photo shows two buttons buttoned on a polo. TWO! Auto-fail.
  16. USAFChief
    Impressive work. Concur, mostly, on the tie grades, too. The sleeve length on polo shirt comment is way off, though. To the elbow, at least.
  17. USAFChief
    Is that an age joke, sonny?
  18. USAFChief
    I remember it as the scouts loving Stuart Turner’s defense, not Garver. Garver I remember described as “defensively, he has a chance to be a decent hitter.”

    Molitor’s decision to, yet again, wait until his starter had squandered a lead before removing him was the story of this game. Third time through the order, check. Hard hit balls, check. Confidence visibly eroding, compounded by infield error, check. Becoming strike zone shy, check. Manager confirms he messed up by removing pitcher immediately AFTER damage done, check. This pattern has resulted in at least half a dozen losses this year alone. And he’ll do it again, just wait.
  21. USAFChief
    Take me along. I’d love to view myself moving in slo motion. Wait, forget it. Pretty routine, actually.
  22. USAFChief
    I would have had a reliever up when the inning started. For sure before the HR even landed. No way does Odorizzi face Cruz.
  23. USAFChief
    I absolutely knew with certainty before it happened that Molitor would wait until the lead was gone before pulling Odorizzi. You could see him losing confidence and command as that inning unfolded. Yet you let him walk the go ahead run on, then give up a HR after falling behind. He’s lucky it wasn’t a three run HR instead of two.
  24. USAFChief
    How would you regret it? He’s free. Adios Ryan LaMarre, or Gregorio Petit. Adios Hanley Ramirez by June 15th if you do regret it.
  25. USAFChief
    I’m all for Gordon. We still need a better lineup daily.
