2020-08-12: Twins (Maeda) at Brewers (Lauer) [Brewers lose, 12-2]
TURBO replied to Eye Black's topic in Archived Game Threads
Urias and Pina on the bench tonight made absolutely no sense. I know CC is a god on this page frequently, but I question his line-ups quite often. Eric Sogard should never, NEVER start before a guy that will possibly be a future fixture. I've said it a hundred times, Counsell just can't bring himself to NOT play Sogard. *shaking head* -

So Pina hits 2 bombs in one game and is promptly relegated to the bench. *scratching head* -
Winning is surely a lot more fun than losing! Nice win tonight!
-
Pina will be fine, he deserves a shot...
-
I agree with the first part of your statement, but what has Narvaez done to deserve to play at DH? Then again, what has anyone done to deserve to play that spot? lol I just think you have to plug Braun in there daily as long as he is healthy.
-
Maybe a 60 game season suits Manny? No time to wear down and become completely ineffective like he did when given the chance to be our normal starter a couple years back...
-
Probably because we are sending out a below mediocre offensive line-up to face those mediocre pitchers...
-
I especially thought the same thing when we played the White Sox. That team has so much excitement surrounding it, and we have what we have...
-
Why not have Peralta and Burnes starting and letting Lauer and Lindblom take on the long relief/piggy back roles. Freddie and Corbin have a future with this team...
-
So Appleton isn't getting the game on cable... Instead, they have the Bucks? Geeeeeeeez. FXSP1 is showing the Tigers/White Sox. Ridiculous. I admit though, these two teams are interesting to watch, lots of young talent.. EDIT: Just found the Brewers game, way up on channel 310 - FSWIAHD

Rumors were that some Cards players hit a casino as well, not just the golf course. If that is true, they are just plain dumb.

more on Plesac, wonder what his Uncle thinks? Indians president Chris Antonetti told reporters late Sunday that the team had been discussing Zach Plesac's role prior to his violation of the health and safety protocols on Saturday in Chicago. Plesac left the team hotel and went out with some friends following a terrific outing Saturday afternoon against the White Sox. When that came to light on Sunday, he got sent home to Cleveland in a rental car and will now be quarantined for 72 hours. The Indians don't technically need a fifth starter again until August 22, so Antonetti said they were already considering moving Plesac to the bullpen for a bit or even optioning him to their alternate training site. It's hard to see the option idea happening - he boasts a 1.29 ERA, 0.667 WHIP, and 24/2 K/BB ratio in 21 innings (three starts) this season - but the 25-year-old right-hander certainly irked some people in the organization (and around the industry) with his decision to break protocol.

Are the older players going out to bars and clubs to celebrate victories? That is pretty much what I meant. My guess is that the young guys don't take the virus and all it's complications it causes (to teamates, the schedule, the game itself, etc) as seriously as the older players. I doubt you'll catch Ryan Braun out at bars after a win. I meant no offense to the young guys here.

Not sure where to put this, but I found it to be a little disgusting... These young guys just don't get it... Too bad they can't just suspend him from all team functions for the rest of the year, without pay to send a message. Very douchey thing to do. Zach Plesac was sent home by the Indians and will be quarantined for 72 hours after going out with friends in Chicago on Saturday night. Plesac tossed six scoreless innings against the White Sox on Saturday afternoon and apparently wanted to celebrate the impressive outing, but he did so in violation of team rules and MLB's COVID-19 health and safety protocols. Plesac's actions have "upset teammates and club officials," per Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic, and it's unclear whether he'll be given the go-ahead to make his scheduled start next weekend in Detroit.

Claudio = yuk

I sure hope this is the game that turns Yelich and Hiura around for the rest of the season! EDIT: and Smoak. lol
-
I think we all know what he meant...
-
We need to badmouth Smoak more often!
-
I am finding myself disliking Morrison as the games go by. Seems like a big douchebag.

Not so weird for guys like Smoak, Healy, and Morrrison, who pretty much just suck anyway. Is it a slump if they are just bad baseball players? Narvaez has shown us nothing except they were right when we heard people saying he was not a good defensive catcher. They were wrong when they said he was a good offensive catcher. So far, he has been a big disappointment. HUGE downgrade from Grandal. Guys like Smoak, Morrison, and Helay, I expected nothing from to begin with, so they are just pretty much doing what I expected them to do. Sogard is just a guy who should never be a regular starting 3B or SS, but yet, here we are. I expected more out of Garcia, but not a lot more, he is an average guy that I was fine with when we signed him. I sincerely hope that Urias and Lauer prove to be worth the trade. With the way Grisham has performed, there is a good chance that we got hosed in that trade. The fact we don't have a real 3B and 1B just leaves us with this crap filled line-up on a daily basis. I can see what our plan at 1B was, throw some crap against the wall and see if something sticks, but what were we thinking at 3B? Yelich and Hiura are slumping, the rest, well, I think they just aren't good to begin with. As I have said before, I'm glad we only have to watch this offense for 60 games, rather than 162.

I believe most people were not happy with the way the offseason went so its not exactly surprising to see us doing so poorly. That is true to a point, there were a lot of people here that thought we made a lot of great moves, I just never figured out based on what? We signed a bunch of cheap bums, hoping they had a good year in them, so far, not one of them has...

Grisham has been an absolute stud.
