  1. I'm as annoyed with Sazuki as anyone, but you have to admit his BABIP luck this year is awful.
  2. Hicks does make trading Arcia more of a valid idea.
  3. Mike Pelfrey now has a 6.80 ERA in his last 8 starts. I look forward to him making 12 more!
  4. Get him the F out of there. (And here)
  5. And here's the Pelfrey implosion. Exhibit 35667 why he should be in the BP.
  6. Pelf serving up BP and getting away with it. Way to increase the trade value!
  7. What if Twins stand pat? It's always been better than 50/50 that they will. And it will forever be as long as TR is the GM. He has his strengths. Fortifying a team for the post-season isn't one of them. Come Friday at 3:00 will hear about how exhaustively they worked the phones, but there just wasn't the right 'fit.' Maybe they'll call up Arcia as a consolation prize?
  8. Gibson, Meyer and Kepler for Reyes? Good god no. I wouldn't trade any one of them for him, much less all 3. I'm not opposed to the idea, but given his salary, he shouldn't require a massive haul. Maybe Meyer for him straight up.
  9. I feel like if this team is going to do anything unexpected, it'll be because Dozier, Sano, Buxton and co. lead them there. -Trade for a bullpen arm. -Trade for AJ. Neither should cost major prospects. -Put Pelfrey in the pen (or trade him.) Either put May back or call up Berrios. -Send Santana down for Arcia (I cannot believe this hasn't happened yet.)
  10. Good for the Royals. Mid-market teams have to pick years to 'go for it' and this is their year. The problem with Terry Ryan isn't that he won't go for it this year. It's that he has never gone for it. I'll never forgive him for refusing to acquire a bat in 2006, even if it probably wouldn't have won us a WS with what happened to Liriano and Radke after 7/31. Unless they run up against the Twins, I hope the Royals win it this year. The Twins will just be over in the corner hoarding prospects for a tomorrow that never quite comes. (FWIW I'm not advocating anything big this year, but some RP and C at least.)
  11. This is also why I don't buy the 'we're not a play-off team, we don't need a closer' line of thinking. Losses like this are demoralizing whether your 9 games over or 9 games under.
  12. This series went to hell in a hurry. A loss tomorrow is almost guaranteed.
  13. Good to see we still $$^^ ourselves in close games against the Yankees. Too much change is scary .
  14. PH Mauer for Santana. Plouffe to 3rd. Esco to SS
  15. Why didn't Mauer hit for Escobar and take over at 1st....
  16. Jeff Nelson pulling a Phil Cuzzi tonight.
  17. This should be at least a 3 run game. Missed an easy one in the top of the 7th and gave up an easy one in the bottom.
  18. The scoreless streak by the starters ends at 18 2/3?
  19. Every time I think he's showing his age, he goes and does something like this...
  20. Why is Santana still on this team? Honestly, we have 3 SS's and he brings the least to the table.
  21. Now you almost have to bunt...
