  1. That pitch to Rosario was about a foot inside.
  2. The Mariners are doing us a favor tonight. His name is J.A. Happ.
  3. Pitcher didn't even need to turn his head to know.
  4. No Cano. No Felix (in a 4-game series!) So much the better for us.
  5. Tom Kelly understood how to manage a game as well or better than just about any manager ever. My perception is that his biggest shortcoming was his sometimes standoffish personality because it made it hard for him to relate to some players with the result being that he may not have gotten the most out of them. Molitor seems to have close to the understanding of the game as Kelly had but I'd guess he's much better at managing the clubhouse. If he stays in the dugout for a few more years I think his game management skills will do nothing but improve, and I agree that he seems much more willing to incorporate new approaches (defensive shifts, for example) than Kelly would have.
  6. And kudos to Molitor for sending Sano.
  7. Reminds me of a card a friend of mine once gave to a female of interest. The front said, "All most men think about is your legs." The inside said, "But I'm above that."
  8. If he doesn't answer maybe that's the answer.
  9. See, this is how a speedy runner on first base can throw off the pitcher. Or Mauer.
  10. Ah, I see. I didn't think they were dreads. Thought they were braids. Moot point now, obviously.
  11. I didn't watch the ASG. Did McCutchen have his long braids then? They aren't there now.
  12. The other day on the radio LEN III referred to him as "the skeletal remains of Joe Blanton". That said, he's essentially free and he might be an upgrade over what we have. I'd probably only want him for the rest of this year, though. What's his contract status?
  13. Improving the level of talent on the major league team can certainly be a bad thing if the wrong prospects are traded. Improving the level of talent in your organization is never a bad thing.
  14. He injured Morneau's wrist back in about 2005 when he was with Cleveland. Same thing--he got in a bad mood over a bunt or something. It's one thing to throw at a batter's buttocks to make a statement, but anything thrown purposely above the waist is done only by an @$$#()!&, and that's what Sabathia is.
  15. *Yawn*...Just another double-digit win over the Yankees.
