    So close to zero, just round it off to zero.

    After Chattanooga is eliminated from the playoffs, Kepler / Meyer are promoted and Pinto / Polanco are sent to Fall-Ball.

    If I were GM for two days, the following would take place: 1)Eric Fryer makes the 40-man roster by replacing Jason Wheeler, and is promoted. 2)JOBerrios makes the 40-man roster by replacing Aaron Thompson, and is promoted. 3)Hicks, Santana, Vargas, Tonkin, and Achter are recalled from Rochester. Kepler and Polanco stay at Chattanooga for the playoffs. Pinto and Meyer are reassigned to Chattanooga for the playoffs.

    "He's handled himself good", Mauer added.... Did Mauer learn to speak English from Gardy?

    There is almost zero danger in catching a bullpen, unless a "stand-in" batter does something stupid, resulting in a foul tip.

    I nominate Jason Wheeler, AJ Achter and Aaron Thompson.

    Great pitching job by Un-nervin' Santana!

    Danny Santana has his 2014 swing back. Two homers today and hitting .308.

    Starter vs. Closer decisions are often settled by the NUMBER of effective pitches that pitcher commands. If he is a one-pitch-pitcher (Mariano Rivera) or two-pitch-pitcher (most other closers), he figures to have difficulties fooling hitters for multiple innings. If he has three or more effective pitches, he is starter material.

    I doubt it because he had already pooped four times tonight.

    If you pinch-hit for someone with four strikeouts, it can't be the dumbest PH decision. If you can't PH good for bad, at least you are pinch-hitting lukewarm for ice-cold.

    "But all our data shows that these strategies really make no difference in preventing injury. The study looked at injury rates based on the number of innings pitched and five levels of yearly increases ranging from 10 to 50 innings. A year-over-year increase of 30 innings pitched is often used as the limit for the number of innings a young starting pitcher is allowed to pitch in any given season. The researchers found no consistent correlation between injuries and the number of innings pitched or rate of yearly increase" http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2015/04/150406121354.htm

    Number of innings is not the issue for Berrios. If he pitches stressful innings as a reliever, it will endanger his arm more than starter innings. I think he should be pitch VERY few innings, until (and if) the Twins make the playoffs, then he can be used in the playoffs.

    Meanwhile, Rosario catches that ball if he's playing LF. Eddie's faster than Robinson. And meanwhile, Rosario's throw from RF to 3B (when executed by Robinson) rolls dead at 2B.

    Adam Brett Walker just got RBI #100 and HR #29.

    None of that is clear. This site is full of people that think temporary situations are permanent.ie.; "Hicks can't hit; Hughes is wonderful;the National League is weak; (despite the Cardinals and the Giants repeatedly winning the World Series); Danny Santana, Arcia and Vargas are terrific!; Danny Santana, Arcia and Vargas are terrible!;Hughes is terrible, Milone is terrible, Pelfrey is terrible, Gibson is terrible, Colabello is terrible - Colabello is wonderful!" Drawing long term conclusions from short term performances just doesn't work well.

    "Geek" is still an insult ONLY if the reader is insulted by its use. In my post, it was mean as a term to describe baseball audience members who would actually appreciate the discussion of less traditional baseball metrics. If you are insulted by that, it is your decision. If you are NOT insulted by that, than that is also your decision.
