  1. It's interesting. Now I'm rooting for Sano in a different way. I root for him to silence the critics as much as anything else. He was great today at the plate, and one of his Ks was a terrible call. And he was great in the field, until the error, which looked like a bad hop to me. I hope it's just on this web site, and not coming out from the fans in the game, because I fell like he's the kind of player who thrives on positive feedback. Although Nelson looked at two good pitches before the third strike, that was never a swing. He should have been given a fair chance to bat there. It's been frustrating watching him lately, but I think there were signs from today that he's about to break out and have a hot streak.
  2. Nice AB, Jorge!! Time for another Cruz Missile.
  3. Couldn’t trust this umpire.
  4. Good job, Magill, the gorill. Apparently, lead off walks don’t always score against the Twins.
  5. Walked the lead off batter. So that’s 9-5?
  6. If you read the comments here, that’s quite an accomplishment.
  7. If we can just get a clean inning, we have one more shot at this.
  8. Nice to see you back, Swain. Great opener, by the way.
  9. Are they pitching to Eddie here?
  10. Royals let us load the bases again. Wonder if that’s their new strategy against us.
  11. One of those 2 Ks was ball four. He deserved better, as did Sano.
  12. Remember when we traded Escobar? Then he signed on with the D-Backs. And St. Louis traded for Goldy, and he signed on with the Cards. I like the idea of MadBum on this team. Similar mojo to getting Morris in1991. And considering the improved atmosphere around this team, and especially the pitching coach, I think we'd have a decent shot at keeping him. Bumgarner has had some bad luck with injuries (some might say stupid luck), but has proven himself when the best teams are playing in the most important games. That kind of ability and experience could be a boost to our relatively young and untested aces. I also don't know enough about prospects to say who we should or should not trade away. But I would be all in favor of going after Bumgarner and Smith as soon as possible. San Fran doesn't need money. But they do need to re-tool an aging team. This could be the perfect time to approach them.
  13. I would have like to see the CG, especially as everything was lining up perfectly for it. But it was also good to see Rogers back. That's "Rogers" who is our best reliever and potential All-Star, not "Rodgers." Seriously, can we all just get the spelling of this guy's name right from now on?
  14. Great game. Great company here on the Game Thread. I love this team.
  15. One for three gets you a batting title some years.
  16. Keller looks about done. I hope they bring him out for the 8th.
  17. He’s also had a lot of swings and misses.
