  1. I'm waiting for when there will be too many true quality pitchers. Going to be a long time.
  2. Yeah, I couldn't disagree more. He's a reliever now for as long as he's a Twin and probably for his career (since he'll be pigeonholed by the time he reaches FA). He got put in the bullpen last season in favor of lesser pitchers staying in the bullpen (including a guy with no future with us) and the same thing happened this year. Ryan barely did anything to address the bullpen because he plans on May being a bullpen guy regardless of the rhetoric the team spoke about him getting a chance to be a starter.
  3. Do you have some examples, that you would share, where you believe questioning Ryan and Molitor is valid? I'd be interested in reading them. In regards to this, bringing up Meyer for relief help and letting him sit for 8, 9 days is ridiculous. If they were going to starting him on Tuesday, they could have called him up Sunday or so and, in the meantime, actually bring up a pitcher to help the bullpen until then.
  4. Of active MLB players, Mauer has the 2nd best career BA with RISP
  5. I doubt Meera is, though there are some reasons to believe it's possible.
  6. It's actually 860 PA with a line of .242 /.303/.424. Last in BA, 26th in OBP, 12th in SLG% (along with 18th in OPS and 20th in wRC+)
  7. For me it's free with my subscription to mlb extra innings. I used it a lot when I was overseas.
  8. I wish we had foxtrax up tonight.
  9. Dallas K is not having a good season so far.
  10. yeah, when an umpire misses a call right in the middle of the strike zone, that's bad.
  11. and the ball to strike ratio is bad. and him showing frustration to the umpire about the calls isn't good either.
  12. I'm getting tired of Morris talk about how the umpire's buddies are making the call in NY. if they consistently screwed up to favor their friends, there'd be a talkin' to.
  13. That episode was all sorts of awesome! Next week's episode looks like it will answer some questions with another Bran vision.
  14. he questioned lineup construction a day or two ago.
  15. My first job was also as an umpire. I've done it from little league (to include regionals which is right before LLWS) all the way to lower level college ball.
  16. no. then again, look at how our manager sets lineups. then it becomes less perplexing.
  17. About 20 or so years ago, official scorers decided to hold MLB players to high school level fielding ability in regards to errors.
  18. It's been this way for a very long time. 20 or so years.
  19. Yeah as I look around the diamond and on the bench, along with the rotation and bullpen, I have a real hard time agreeing. Catcher? Nah. 2B? Not really. He is who he is, his talent is extracted. SS? See 2B 3B? see 2B CF? Not on the current team. LF? no. Rotation? No, We know who Hughes, Nolasco, Milone, Gibson and Santana are. Bullpen? Please.
  20. Make something happen? Making the last out at 3B, down one run when he was already in scoring position? That's boneheaded.
