  1. It would have been a better inning....
  2. Bad defense and leaving too many guys on base, bad combination no matter who you are....
  3. Well, he probably wouldn't be out there tonight...
  4. 14 extra pitches so far this inning due to the defense, and now losing...
  5. Lack of defense leads to a tie game....
  6. Why does every Twins SP have to have an inning where they completely lose the ability to throw strikes/get outs???
  7. How long can the D-Backs "D" keep making these kind of plays??
  8. Provus and Gladden both commented today on how much Sizemore has helped with OF defense (there have still been misplays, gonna happen when guys play new positions). Sometimes just getting the right guy to coach can make all the difference (see Arraez working with Washington in SF).
  9. Nice to see the team have a big offensive game with 2-3-4 (Buxton, Clemens, Lewis) a combined 1-15 at the plate. The big guys can't carry the team everyday, but let's hope they pick it up over the weekend...
  10. Never said that Jenkins should also be promoted, was just making an observation about other HS players taken in the same draft.
  11. If the team decides its a lost season and wants to start making trades to open up spots for the youngsters at AA, two contending teams in the NL recently lost COFs to long-term injuries, the Phillies and the Padres. One of Larnach and Clemens, and Martin could conceivably be traded to either, and if the team wants to make Bell available (and the other team wants him), two trades could happen. The Phillies are left-hand heavy in their line-up, but Clemens has had success against LHP this season, so Maybe Clemens and Martin to Philadelphia (I know Philly traded us Clemens), and Larnach and Bell to San Diego, as they also need a DH. The return won't be big, the trades probably won't happen, and promoting 4 players at once is a big gamble, but it seems like something that could be done.
  12. And the fact that the RBI is an overrated statistic...according to some so-called experts (wink, wink)
  13. How many RBI has he not gotten due to the fact that most of the teams runners only advance one base at a time?
  14. 47 pitches through 4 IP, does Paredes come out for the 5th?
  15. 10 pitch inning for Paredes, gotta like that...
  16. Lee is 1-12 @ Globe Life Stadium - .083/.083/.083 (.167 OPS) 2/0 K/BB. Clemens 2-15 is not much better, however - .133/.235/.200 (.435 OPS) 3/2 K/BB So, all things considered, Clemens success against LHP this season gives him the start tonight, but with Rocker and Leiter going the next two game (weird day off Wednesday because of the FIFA WC) should have Lee back in the line-up, with Clemens probably starting over Martin, but also Larnach over Fedko.
