  1. All true, but do you trust Rogers for the rest of the year being able to close out close games? Something is off with him this year and I have to believe his confidence is a bit shaken. I'd give May a shot. I guess if we draw the Yankees in the playoffs its all moot anyways based on past performance (or lack of).
  2. Trevor May - nice 9th inning 1-2-3, K-K-K. That last pitch to Abreu was at 99 mph. He was throwin' gas. I think I roll with May as the closer to finish the year. Clippard and Duffy are just too good in the middle of the game. Serge is good at dishin' slop, but May has been groomin' for the closer roll for a few years now. Let him loose.
  3. Gosh darn it Seth, why do you have to be so rational about these things? Can't we dream of an unheralded rookie picking up our season?
  4. Congrats to Travis Blankenhorn who made his major league debut, turned a DP and got his 1st major league hit.
  5. that was White Sox home field gamesmanship that the umpires let them get away with.
  6. Wow, what a difficult game to watch. Chicago tried to give us the game, but we didn't take it. Putting out an APB for the real Taylor Rogers.
  7. And checkout the MLB highlights of Saturday's homers by Marwin, Turtle and the Bandito; those fake outfield fans . . . very freaky.
  8. Count me in as a Wade Jr. fan. One thing I'm impressed with is how well prepared the rookies have looked when called up. Really a bummer about Rooker breaking his forearm; he just didn't get out of the way of the pitch enough.
  9. Byron Wallbanger is going to ruin his career if he can't figure this out. Pete Reiser v2.
  10. Totally agree. I like that they are promoting before players run out of options which seemed to happen more than I liked with the last administration.
  11. Describe Byron Buxton: Fast. Really, really fast.
  12. Rooker is no gazelle in the OF, but he can't be worse than eddie was last year with the bad wheels. If the Twins do bring Rooker up and he gets his confidence going, you're gonna see some balls fly.
  13. I guess watching about 15 minutes of Kirby Puckett highlights payed off.
  14. Also, everybody watch a clip of Kirby Puckett highlights and see if we can stir some positive mojo.
  15. That's it! We need the MVP in the booth.
  16. Time for some butt-naked batting practice or something!!
  17. It could be that some hitters just aren't feeling comfortable in the batter's box and haven't got their swings to click yet. Whatever it is, it sure made this weekend against the Tigers frustrating.
  18. Observing, understanding and even talking about the finer points of pitching mechanics isn't easy. It's why we have pitching coaches. Great article Matt; you're miles ahead of us pedestrian observers. Thanks for the insight and write-up. Now we can all watch the release point and pitch zone location. Good charts too; I like how the change up falls off the chart.
