  1. well Villar cant turn em but at least he can hit into em
  2. Yeah, and if he pokes an 0-2 blooper into right field, we're down 2-0 and with the way the offense is going, that's a lot. A rundown is almost a sure out. You throw over every time. Dozier probably breaks for home and then the infielder throws there and you deal with the rundown there. I'm glad he got out of it, but absolutely inexcusable to just eat it and make no throw. By the time Garza stepped off it would have been a close play at 2b. Just not worth the chance of him throwing it away and a run scores anyway. There was not going to be a play at second, if Garza throws the ball Mauer goes back and Dozier tries for hom
  3. You guys, Mauer just took off before Garza was even set and if you watch Mauer stopped running when he got close to 2nd. That was not just Mauer guessing and Garza picking him off but not throwing
  4. Yeah, and if he pokes an 0-2 blooper into right field, we're down 2-0 and with the way the offense is going, that's a lot. A rundown is almost a sure out. You throw over every time. Dozier probably breaks for home and then the infielder throws there and you deal with the rundown there. I'm glad he got out of it, but absolutely inexcusable to just eat it and make no throw. The point of that was for Mauer to get into a run down for long enough to let the run score. With the hitter down 1-2 the Twins were willing to trade an out for a run. If anyone is smart enough to execute that properly it is Mauer (unlike Arcia was it for us that ended a game because he didnt stay in the rundown long enough?). Eating it is not the worst thing ever.
  5. I wouldn't hold out hope with him batting righty
  6. Hey who says baseball is boring, the whole state has been on the edge of their seat (albeit in their skivies with a beer stain on their undershirt) with every pitch (and balk) for a week now
  7. Ill give him props for that great 2 strike approach though. Villar should be taking notes
  8. I mean, I get it. But Jared Hughes has a 3.74 FIP and a 116 ERA+. That's pretty solidly above-average. Not crap. I just don't see a situation in which he's not a better choice than Drake to start the seventh. I wish I could easily lookup ERA+ for starters and relievers. Relievers should only be compared to other relievers, and I would think his ERA would be solidly average to below average.
  9. Mauer thinking I can't believe I grounded out to a guy who thinks the bases are loaded to start the inning
  10. Listening to Colin Cowherd speak 2 sentences is worse than a lifetime of Grubers
  11. Since my trivia question was buried by the balk, the last NLer to hit 50 HRs is old Prince Fielder (Metrodome aided)
  12. Looked like Braun had the wrong first step, very rare for a lateral move. Maybe there is something odd about picking up the ball here from the OF
  13. Torres warming up! We need to score in the 8th to force CC to use a MLB pitcher.
  14. Drake is a real innovator in the art of giving up the lead
  15. Leibnitz has already proven that bunt was dumb so there's no need for further analysis
  16. Really good chance. Id like to see him get there. Trivia: Who was the last NLer to do it? Who are the only 2 players to do it in the 2010s?
  17. Scrubs take the lead on an inside the park homer
  18. Or the whole weekend in TB. We must have sacrificed a very healthy ram on Thursday
