  1. Matt Wallner is unreliable with his swing…too inconsistent and unreliable. Hope he has success but doubt it.
  2. The article for was too much statistics. That is one of the reasons baseball is no longer the National Pastime.
  3. Morneau was a very good player but, to me, not a good color man. Too boring and in a monotone voice. I can’t listen to him. I turn the volume so low so that it’s a mumbling sound. In my circle of baseball friends none like Morneau. At least Bert had some humor, etc. But if they keep the rotation then it should be ok.
  4. Probably couldn’t communication with the Front Office. One of the most instinctive players in baseball history. In reality the front office didn’t want to give instructions to a Hall of Famer.
  5. So the author states that Paul Molitor couldn’t communicate with the players. Not what I heard!
  6. Paul Molitor was probably one of the most instinctive players that I have witnessed in my lifetime. But he combined that with tremendous ability. Run, hit, throw.
  7. Good analysis! I agree.
  8. Very seldom have I created a topic but I would like to know what you think about the color announcers…..especially Morneau and Perkins. Watching the game tonight there is non- stop talking and evaluation. Not relaxing. It almost sounds like a seminar, or lecture. Most of us all played baseball, or understand the game and we don’t need never ending babble. The Producers need to work with these people on their craft. A requirement for these color guys: listen to tapes of Vince Scully…sometimes less is more.
  9. You don’t want him back in 2024(which is your opinion)but many of us do. I really like Gray…..fun to watch him work his craft.
  10. Basically, his ball, no matter the speed on the fastball, is too straight. Doesn’t move much or rise.
  11. He was put in as low-leverage situation as you can get.
  12. Larnach has the potential to be a real good hitter…more than the above players.
  13. This game was blown by the manager. Baldelli is not a winner..his object is to follow a game plan and doesn’t deviate. Lacks a winning feel. When you have guys in the bullpen who throw 100mph…bring them in and win the game.
