  1. Sometimes we need multiple like buttons.
  2. Let's see how Sano is doing defensively at 3B. If he continues to improve maybe leave him at 3B and put Vargas or a FA acquisition at 1B.
  3. And to think there were a lot of us advocating trading Rosario thinking he'd be a fourth-outfielder type. Dude has been way en fuego.
  4. What I like about the 2-wild-card-team postseason is that it puts a higher premium on a division championship. One of the wild card teams loses a 1-game play-in and the other starts a series at the home field of the best team in the league most likely with their best starting pitcher having been used the day before.
  5. The Twins have as good a chance for the second wild card as the other 7 teams in contention. In other words, about a 12.5% chance.
  6. I would agree, but Eddie Guardado is acting pitching coach tonight. Neil Allen has the night off for a family function.
  7. That's not a ground ball, it's a ground bat.
  8. Sano leaving the game with "left lower leg shin soreness" according to Dick. As opposed to upper leg shin soreness I guess.
  9. Not unexpected with Angel working the dish.
  10. I want to see statistics to support this statement. Please show your work.
  11. There are a number of analyses that have been done on strike zone accuracy and consistency and it would be very easy for MLB to coach the lower-performing umps with a goal of improvement in performance. There are other aspects of umpiring that can be assessed, especially in this era of multiple camera angles and extensive use of replay challenges. Which umpires make incorrect calls the most frequently? Which umpires are most often not in correct position to make a call? MLB should negotiate to have measures of performance incorporated into the next collective bargaining agreement with bonuses for the best performers and reassignment to the minor leagues for the laggards. This is long overdue. Edited to add: And seniority should not be part of the formula. You earn the privilege of working in the majors based on performance alone regardless of age or experience.
  12. Dick: "a spinning roller". Well, of course it is.
  13. Let's see if the big man can go on a Stanton-like tear.
  14. Let's get Buck back up to the plate for that single!
  15. I heard someone calling. Who almost screwed that up?
