I'll believe that the players are smarter than this. Why in the world would we bring in our LOOGY, who has owned lefties this year, to plunk Mauer to load the bases, down one run late in the game? Because he had hit a homer earlier? Okay. This is a choice line; "You can make a good argument that he threw a pitch that got more up and more in that he intended, an argument I'll be willing to buy if Crede is 100 percent soon." So if Crede isn't 100% soon then it was intentional? That's just how effective our guys are, if they hit you intentionally, you're down for good! Our pitchers send love letters, straight from their heart!
