    Alright, I'm caught up. Mauer's AB with two runners on was the low point for me. Take two strikes, shuffle foot across batter's box to smooth it out, look back for confirmation that yes, indeed, it was a fastball right down the middle, nod in agreement, get jammed and dribble one to the second baseman. Lather, rinse, repeat. Worse than the pitching. Pathetic.

    Just catching up on tape delay...we're off to a fantastic start I see...up 5-1 in the first! We got this one in the bag, I'm sure.

    As someone who frequently criticises Molitor for his bullpen moves--or non moves--I had zero problem with Molitor's moves today. It was time to get Gibson out, and he did. He gave Reed the 7th, Duke the 7th, as mentioned above. Gave his closer a 2 run lead, clean inning.

    it used to happen with some regularity, usually for 1 batter, with the pitcher standing in the OF. With the money and the DH, much less common.

    I doubt it, he pitched yesterday.

    Garver is pretty bad defensively, IMO.
  10. USAFChief
    concur on all points
  11. USAFChief
    bad pitch framer too
  12. USAFChief
    Garver is pretty bad behind the plate.

    Is this 1st base ump on the Yankee payroll?

    I believe on the TV broadcast they said correspondong roster move to be announced.

    Fabulous!

    You win by scoring runs. You score runs by knocking in runners. Those are called "RBI." Nobody will ever convince me RBI aren't the most important offensive stat. All the analytics folks saying they're "team dependent" this, and "situational" that, are simply wrong. At the end of the day, I don't care how many times you walked. I care how many times we crossed home plate.

    I like Escobar, but he is about as unmobile a SS as you will ever see. Brutal range.

    DIfference between the Yankees and the Twins: would the Yankee front office settle for Grossman and LaMarre as 4th and 5th OFers? No. Neither would be a Yankee without a serious run of injuries. Would the Yankees be carrying a useless rule 5 pitcher in their pen? No. They don't waste roster spots. The Yankees don't always win, but they never settle for "well, that's good enough."

    Dick...he continued to pitch after the "injury." If he was hurt, he wouldn't have. How long has Dick been doing this?
  21. USAFChief
    amatuer hour.
  22. USAFChief
    I don't think Grossman called off Dozier. What next? Both runners advance on a popup to deep second.
  23. USAFChief
    I know, right? Things are looking up! We scored with bases loaded, no out!!!1!1!!
