  1. We must take a moment to thank Terry Ryan for burning two Polanco options for a total of 3-4 games in 14-15. Otherwise he'd have been raking for Rochester all month. Brilliant foresight, Terry.
  2. Jorge. I've never seen anyone go from totally lost to 'he should hit clean-up' faster.
  3. No. I think it hit above. It would have been a spectacular catch.
  4. Is Giminez honesty better than Garver on D? And if not, why is he getting all of the playing time?
  5. What are the odds Gibson gives us two good starts in a row? May as well call Slegers up to take Gee's spot in the rotation and send Curtiss back. Presumably Slegers could give you some innings tomorrow if necessary
  6. I wish Hildenberger were the closer. But either of them or Businitz would have been been a better option than putting Curtiss in that spot.
  7. This loss was on Molitor for not using Hildenberger/Belisle after we got back within 1.
  8. It's true that Kintzler would not have pitched the 8th, but you can argue Belisle might have. In any event they shouldn't have lost a game they scored 11 in, Kintzler or no, and they shouldn't have been 3 hit by James Shields and a Bummer.
  9. I don't fully trust anyone but: 1. Hildenberger 2. Belisle 3. Duffey 4. Busenitz 5. Rodgers 6. Pressly 7. Curtiss (hopefully rising fast) 8. Perkins.
  10. There's got to be better DH options than Grossman. Either get Vargas up here or Park. Or make a trade.
  11. How much could we get the Tigers to eat of Verlander's contract? Or Zimmerman's? I see Zimmerman as a good buy low option if they would eat like half of it. Unlikely I know.
  12. I still think Polanco can be a .280 hitter with good gap power. As little and as poorly as he's played, he just hit his 18th double tonight. Rosario hit is 22nd. Pretty surprising. He's got to pick the defense back up though. Ultimately, I think he can be an above average 2B on both ends.
  13. I thought back-to-back was Belisle's kryptonite? Glad he made it through. Who closes tomorrow?
  14. Impressive and watch to watch Colon do that with that stuff. I hope Mejia is watching closely.
  15. Get Dozier the $%^ out of the lead-off spot. Get Vargas and Garver up.
  16. Most likely. But giving one of them a trial makes more sense than Molitor managing out the string. They intended to bring someone in from outside in 1986 too. They changed their mind.
  17. If only there were things we could do to improve the offense. Like DL Polanco and get Vargas back. And DA Giminez and get Garver up. And try someone else in the lead-off spot. But alas, nothing can be done.
  18. I'd say Molitor's chances of managing in 2018 are 25% at best. Given that, I'd rather give Dougie M or Mauer (Jake) a 2-month try out.
  19. Guys to try out at closer Hildenberger Curtis Busenitz
  20. You're severely over-analyzing it. You still manage within each game to win. You don't let the pitcher hit when you're behind with 6 outs left.
  21. Or your catcher. Or your LF. Or your RF.
  22. Oh good. It's our DH who hasn't homered in 2 months.
