    ****ing internet went out as the top of the last inning unfolded. Might have been for the best for all of you not to be subjected to my comments after that point.
  2. spinowner
    And I prefer not to be referred to as insane, thank you.

    Having a uniform zone doesn't necessarily mean that it would be larger for small players. It could mean that it would be smaller for large players.

    It doesn't take much time to say, "Phil ****ing Cuzzi!", and by that time Sanó was already ejected.
  5. spinowner
    That last out was an Oakland-only out.
  6. spinowner
    That Phil Cuzzi sure has a good strike zone!
  7. spinowner
    Key word awfully.
  8. spinowner
    He's nervousing me just as much as Rogers and Pressly.
  9. spinowner
    Not necessarily going to click like, but not necessarily disagree.

    Phil ****ing Cuzzi!
  11. spinowner
    What the **** was THAT!?
  12. spinowner
    OK boys, time to man up here and get us back in the lead.

    Was Rosario playing too shallow on that? Shouldn't the no-doubles defense have been in place?
  14. spinowner
    I can certainly make a guess why.

    I've read that med school was his career plan as an undergraduate. But with each intervening year away from academics it gets more difficult to jump back in, especially something as demanding as med school. At age 36 it's certainly do-able but he'd have to totally want to do it.

    Looks like there's a good chance we'll be seeing Kintzler's last appearance for the Twins today.
  17. spinowner
    Little bit of luck there. If the manager green lights you on 3-0 you'd better produce.

    Dick mentioned that this was a quality start for Colon. What would happen if Colon faced one batter in the 7th and gave up a home run? He completed 6 innings and allowed 3 runs but the box score would show 6 innings pitched with 4 runs given up. Is it still a quality start? BTW, 15 years ago calling it a quality start was probably OK. These days I'd use the term satisfactory start.

    This has progressed to an agree-to-disagree point. I enjoy the discussion.

    Y'know, all stadiums should be domed so players don't lose the ball in the sun. It's an abomination!
  21. spinowner
    Dangit, bases left loaded again.
  22. spinowner
    Bueller? Bueller? Bueller? Anyone?
  23. spinowner
    Watching but didn't have a chance to post. That was a ding-ding inning!
  24. spinowner
    There are two errors in this this post.

    There is some merit to the argument that tall batters should have higher strike zones and short batters lower ones. So here's a compromise proposal (which I'm not necessarily advocating for or against): The strike zone could be the same size for all batters but the top and the bottom of the zone would be defined based on the batter's height at the shoulders, since that's the primary hinge point for a swung bat. Of course there would be a learning curve for pitchers but I think this would probably be the most fair way to do it from the standpoint of the batter.
