    The way he laid off those first three pitches in the 2nd AB was masterful. Did not look like a 24 year old but instead a wily veteran.

    My worst was 1987 trading Brunansky for Tommy Herr. Bruno played a big part in the twins dispatching Detroit in the Alcs in 5 games hitting 412 with 2HRs and 9 RBIs in the series though his bat went quiet in the World Series. Traded a month after the Twins win the World Series, they receive winner cry baby Tommy Herr who between his bitching on having to play for Minnesota was pretty useless on the field the next year. Bruno went on to be productive with his power for six more years.

    And his blown saves are very efficient, usually just a handful of pitches.

    800,000? Is that per run?

    A playoff game? Are we that confident now? I’m hoping but not at all certain in my mind.

    Is there an advanced stat where by it is measured in how few of pitches a pitcher during the same half inning gives up 2+ runs? I’m relatively certain he’d excel under this metric, if it is kept. Seems with him, just a handful of pitches and the next pitch leaves the yard. Other relievers who blow up a game, it’s drip, drip, but Pagan, it’s why waste the time throwing any extra pitches?
  7. LeatherAntenna
    If just would have postponed Pagán from blowing up the game until the 8th.

    There was that story on this site by Taylor earlier in June about his 5 worst blown saves. You could add last nite thought not a blown save, but just change the story title from ‘blown saves’ to games he ‘blew up’ , usually with just a handful of pitches. He is very efficient in that regard.

    Add number six, June 26, blew up in Atlanta.

    I get it, you are an optimist or writing a hopeful article. I like to think at times I am optimistic, but also a pragmatist, and the harsh or not harsh reality is that this team is just a .500 club, an absolute joy at times to watch, other times a teeth gnashing affair to watch.

    Now I suppose we can have a tomorrow article title predicting a 3 win 1 loss series, and then after tomorrow we can have another article predicting a series split?

    This vaunted offense is truly to be admired!
  13. LeatherAntenna
    Plus 100.

    Let me see if I understand this. He will work in low leverage situations until you trust him in high leverage situations. Then you put him in high leverage situations and he blows them. Put him in high right away. Why not find that out he will melt down early in the season when games and the standings are a little less important?

    An ace is Johan Santana in September of 2006.

    Warm weather and the virus- what I’ve read is that some viruses don’t seem to be hurt by warm weather, and they don’t know about this one yet. But it is generally believed that all viruses swell in warmer air which can then hamper transmission to a host.

    If Buxton gets injured again this year as much as we love the guy why extend him? He is at this time a frustrating figment of baseball imagination and continuous injury eventually tells us MLB baseball much longer may not be in the cards for him.
  19. LeatherAntenna
    Kepler, without a doubt has blossomed into something special. I see next year another jump into elite MLB company.
  20. LeatherAntenna
    Technically eight homeruns up? They are averaging 1.95 per game, so isn’t that just under four games up?
  21. LeatherAntenna
    good thought that if the Twins enter a “we can take it easy” mode and rest people, but my guess the guys when they get in will be swinging “bombs away.”
  22. LeatherAntenna
    Should happen easily, the lowest monthly total this year is 49.
  23. LeatherAntenna
    well, I guess a tired arm perhaps.
  24. LeatherAntenna
    Could Berrios be hurt? Just wild conjecture but what else would explain the velocity drop?
  25. LeatherAntenna
    And the next record, 4, 5 or possibly 6 with 30 HRs. There are six who could do it but Cron is obviously the longest shot. But the way Cron is hitting ....
