    Imagine how horrid this series might have been if the Twins had not sent out Santana and Berrios and the Astros had sent out Kuechel and McCullers...
  2. yarnivek1972
    Looks like our starting first baseman may eventually be summoned to pitch today.
  3. yarnivek1972
    And the wheels on the bus come falling off, falling off...
  4. yarnivek1972
    Oh,oh,oh. Thank you very much.
  5. yarnivek1972
    Anyone left to defend Molitor's bullpen decisions?
  6. yarnivek1972
    I'd be willing to bet Falvey has a guy or two on his short list and that they probably know who they are.
  7. yarnivek1972
    Why would they post the stats that way? Not saying you are wrong. I certainly did not know that. It just seems like a dumb way to calculate/report the stat. And who was Suzuki catching that picked offso many guys?
  8. yarnivek1972
    Foregone conclusion now that Duffey starts the 7thI think.
  9. yarnivek1972
    And why Rosario is drawing walks and having long pro at bats and Grossman is striking out badly.
  10. yarnivek1972
    Keep in mind that Molitor is not the manager Falvey chose to employ.
  11. yarnivek1972
    So, did Grossman and Rosario do a freaky friday thing or something?
  12. yarnivek1972
    Polanco may need a day. That's two strikeouts already from a guy that never strikes out. Last two in one game was early April.
  13. yarnivek1972
    Buxton has a career BABIP of .318. I honestly think he could sustain .350, maybe .375.
  14. yarnivek1972
    Hey only one in the 5th! We're coming! Santiago probably one more. Barring a couple runs by the Twins, it still makes little sense to use Duffey, Rogers or Kintzler today. So, my guess is Pressly, Breslow and Belisle for 1 IP each. May God have mercy.
  15. yarnivek1972
    Santiago has given up 2 runs in the first and third innings. Isn't that odd?
  16. yarnivek1972
    Castro's career CS % is 27%. Suzuki's is 24%. Keep in mind, Suzuki is older. Point being, Castro's might be lower when he is two years older than he is now. And I think we can stop talking about the influence Castro is having on the pitching staff. They all look about the same to me except Santana, who did just fine without Castro last year and Berrios - which could very easily be simple maturation due to age and experience. Santiago isn't better. Gibson isn't. Belisle isn't. Pressly isn't. Breslow isn't. Kintzler isn't. Rogers maybe a tiny bit. Duffey, ok. But how much of that is Castro and how much is his different role?
  17. yarnivek1972
    Houston doesn't have an overworked bullpen.
  18. yarnivek1972
    The failure was that Molitor failed to understand or failed to care that the bullpen was gassed. He shouldn't be asking them. Of course they are going to say they are good. He should KNOW they aren't based on their usage.
  19. yarnivek1972
    This has been the week from hell. And the water is pretty high...
  20. yarnivek1972
    I'm glad I'm not the only one who saw it. Most people already think I'm crazy.
  21. yarnivek1972
    wtf? Gameday says Gonzalez hit into unassisted double play to RF with an out at home? That can't be right can it?
  22. yarnivek1972
    So, who is the long man today? Breslow in the third inning?
  23. yarnivek1972
    4 strikeouts for Twins batters already. Castro and Buxton haven't even come up yet.
  24. yarnivek1972
    Wouldn't doubt it. There are in southern MN.
  25. yarnivek1972
    I would call it more like John Munch conspiracy speculation, but I still feel on pretty firm ground saying that Falvey wants his guy. I wouldn't say they sent Vargas back without hesitation. I'd say more like a lack of choices. Belisle and Breslow are still 2 and 3 for bullpen salary on the team. It's not much compared with most teams, but that's still the case since you brought up salaries. Regardless of what they are paid, they are still the guys Falvey picked.
