    Suzuki may make the All Star team, but why, oh why, can he never throw a runner out? Tell me. Tell me right now.
  2. ScrapTheNickname
    Who on this team is deserving of batting third?
  3. ScrapTheNickname
    To state the obvious: Parmelee is 0-26 now with RISP.
  4. ScrapTheNickname
    Now is the time to pinch run. Arg.

    A hitter ... went against ... the shift ... I think ... my heart ... stopped. No, I'm okay.

    Is anyone else watching/listening to the Yankees TV broadcast? They just said that they continue to be shocked that the Twins don't shift for McCann, and they talked to scout about it, and the scout said "They [The Twins] don't know what they're doing." I won't editorialize.

    LIMM (Laugh inside my mind)

    Whoever came up with the concept of 154 games (then 162) was kind of screwy, I think.
  9. ScrapTheNickname
    So much ... drama.
  10. ScrapTheNickname
    I have same feeling about Escobar. He looks taxed.
  11. ScrapTheNickname
    It had to be something nice, right?
  12. ScrapTheNickname
    Little Gary Keillor said what?
  13. ScrapTheNickname
    Take Polanco to the banco.
  14. ScrapTheNickname
    B-O-T-C-H. The throw was thrown to first way too soon?
  15. ScrapTheNickname
    He makes an out and his average only goes down to .092. It's hard to fall any further, eh? I found a 2011 article about pitchers hitting and I pulled this quote:"The mean batting average and OPS of these 85 qualifying pitchers are approximately .135 and .340." Ha. Ha.
  16. ScrapTheNickname
    Cubs have thrown out 8 of 75 ... .107. So it seems there is a team that is doing worse.
  17. ScrapTheNickname
    Twins catchers/pitchers have now thrown out 7 of 54 potential base-stealers ... a percentage of .130. This must be the worst in the league, if not approaching the worst in history?
  18. ScrapTheNickname
    Yup, Debbie. I thought that too.
  19. ScrapTheNickname
    FFF = AAA = Lookin like 2011

    RE Willingham's non-catch just now, LA announcer says, "That ball almost hit him on the toe."
  21. ScrapTheNickname
    RE: CJ Wilson, LA's announcer says, "... and somehow still in line for a W."
  22. ScrapTheNickname
    I wonder if there was a competition for naming the team? What were the other contenders, besides Twins?
  23. ScrapTheNickname
    Great article. Thanks for calling our attention to it. It is s almost without a doubt psychologically uplifting for Morneau, or any hitter, to play in Colorado versus at Target Field ... Colorado as a team is hitting .283 / .335 / .461 / .795 ... As a team they've scored the most runs in MLB, and they've given up the most runs ...

    I don't know if they should send him down or keep him up. But we did see him hit the ball AT people ("hang woofums" - ay yay yay - as Hawk Harrelson calls them), not always scaldingly hard, but he got good wood on those balls. So I guess I am saying keep him up. I believe he will come out of this super-slump shortly. Maybe just into a regular slump, I don't know.
