    at least the most damage that he could do is put up 1 run. So there is that.
  2. wsnydes
    *sigh* lead off double squandered...
  3. wsnydes
    I like how you used that analogy for one of the few positive things this team has going for it.
  4. wsnydes
    Timing is everything!
  5. wsnydes
    I'd like to see him go back out. I want to see what he can do against the middle of the order a third time.
  6. wsnydes
    Interested to see how Romero does the third time through the order.
  7. wsnydes
    Keep him away from Platoon then. He's got a whole transport full of it!
  8. wsnydes
    That's a nice AB by Romero there. Love to see attack mode in those situations.
  9. wsnydes
    So, who missed the pick play? Castro?
  10. wsnydes
    Crooked numbers are scary. They're all crooked and such.
  11. wsnydes
    Station to station baseball at it's most infuriating.
  12. wsnydes
    Keep piling on Escobar! 2 is not nearly enough.
  13. wsnydes
    What I'd give to get a timely hit for once...
  14. wsnydes
    Wouldn't you?
  15. wsnydes
    Gotta keep him fresh for that meaningless stretch of games after June!
  16. wsnydes
    Good movement too?
  17. wsnydes
    I really wish I were in front of a TV right instead of a radio...
  18. wsnydes
    If that were the case, would that make them the proverbial rats? Or does that get thrown back at us somehow?
  19. wsnydes
    Train wreck effect?
  20. wsnydes
    Interesting. Interesting to see the variance in the splits too. Thanks for the info!

    Out of curiosity, do you know what the figures are for the last 4 innings? I know that it's typically tougher to score on a bullpen (unless you're playing the Twins), but this team doesn't seem to do a thing against opposing bullpens. Curious if that notion is based in fact or just an ill conceived notion.

    I don't disagree, it is sad. But clearly what they've been doing isn't working and there are fixtures in the lineup. Why not try something different and see how it goes? What's the worst that can happen? They leave runners in scoring position, put together strings of poor AB's, expand the strike zone as if they were in Little League and lose because of it?
  23. wsnydes
    Ha! At it already! I like it! Appease the man (and me) and bring up Wade already! Also, I agree on Dozier. Time to mix things up a little because clearly the status quo ain't working.

    I've said this before in previous seasons. It's not the losing that bothers me so much. I don't like it, but sometimes your team just isn't as good as the opponent. I can deal with that aspect. It's how they lose that bothers me. They shoot themselves in the foot consistently. They leave scoring opportunities go wasted with regularity because they run themselves out of it or they string together poor ABs. They play atrocious defense which only compounds the poor pitching problem. It's one thing to simply not make enough plays to win. It's quite another to squander the few plays you do make and then top it off with mistake-laden play that even poor teams find a way to capitalize on. Sloppy baseball is unacceptable because it requires little talent. It only requires focus and attention to detail. The Blue Jays have exposed the Twins defense. They are forcing them to make decisions on the fly because they don't believe that they'll make the right play. The Morales steal last night was a perfect example of that.

    Heck, or even let a starter get TO 100 pitches. When was the last time one got there?
