    That’s not what he said. They are going to use Duran in high leverage situations, where you should be using your best BP pitcher. They are going to look at possible matchups and plan accordingly. If it’s the 9th, it’s the 9th. If it’s the 7th, it’s the 7th. If it’s one inning or two. The idea of a traditional closer, who only comes in to pitch the 9th is no longer a strict thing in baseball today. This isn’t a Baldelli thing or even a Twins thing, it’s a baseball thing. If Duran hadn’t been hit by a line drive yesterday, he would have been back out for the 9th. But, even so, when your team is ahead by 5 runs, you should be able to call on one of your ‘lesser’ pitchers to finish the job. Sheesh, we won. We won against a good team on a winning streak and took the wind out of their sails. We took 2 of 3 from them. We beat a pitcher yesterday who has been very good. And we did it with a decimated roster. That’s team effort from the players, managers and coaches. Well done!

    Yep, on any given day you could see the worst be the best or the best be the worst or something you’ve never seen before … lots of reasons to watch, imo

    Oakland is not going to give up Montas easily … it will cost and it will hurt. And it will be for top prospects, not anyone on the 26-man.

    Spotted with a 5-run lead, no less … glad we got out of it, and glad we are heading home
  5. Squirrel
    Pretty good summation.

    Creating more time for Moran to finish warming up maybe?
  7. Squirrel
    Ffs
  8. Squirrel
    Turning the sound off helps with that

    We'll soon find out ... and maybe then people will wish Pagan had been able to make the trip?
  11. Squirrel
    heh ... we'll take hits like that

    It was multi-colored; and add in yellow when it started to heal. Even my sister (who is an MD) thought it was 'impressive'

    I got hit by a line drive off my inner thigh in softball ... yeah ... wasn't paying attention ... that bruise was the worst, imagine his might be worse
  14. Squirrel
    Well, ****, ****, ****! We really can't have nice things. I mean, ****

    Yeah, as I said, I knew he was good ... but he is way better than Lewis
  17. Squirrel
    wow, I knew Palacios was good on defense, but I didn't realize how good. Far better than Lewis

    T’ronno has their BP up
  19. Squirrel
    Are you complaining he didn’t run hard enough to get an in-the-park home run? ?
  20. Squirrel
    WTF! Whooooaaaa … you don’t see a routine fly dropped very often
  21. Squirrel
    I guess it’s the Canadian thing.
  22. Squirrel
    Since when do the Blue Jays wear red? It’s odd.
  23. Squirrel
    I have hopes with that lineup ... glad to see Urshela in.
  24. Squirrel
    I already did … right after I made that post
  25. Squirrel
    FYI
