  1. And Villar botching a room service double play costs a run.
  2. Villar is absolute junk. Going to go from turning down 20M to getting DFA 5 months later at the rate he's going.
  3. I remember a Perez interview recently where they were asking him about how he's been able to be so much more patient at the plate since the beginning of the season and I almost did a diet coke spit take. The guy has walked once since the 4th of July.
  4. I love Shaw, don't get me wrong, but he has had a rough last week or two.
  5. Maybe we'll squeeze here with Shaw while we're bunting for runs.
  6. 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. It's not really up to Mauer, it's up to Dozier. When you see him break, throw home. It's an extremely fundamental defensive play that a professional baseball team should be able to execute. Like I said, agree to disagree. I'll put it this way, if you have to concede 2nd and 3rd every time you have 1st and 3rd with a certain pitcher on the mound, that's a problem.
  7. 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. No it's smart. He was just as likely to throw into C.F., at least he's self-aware. Weird deal, but he's not the first to deal with the yips. I know the guy is a defensive disaster, but there is no way he is just as likely to throw a ball into CF as he is to successfully throw to the infielder on a 60 foot throw.
  8. 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. Agree to disagree I guess. Looked to me like he was dead to rights, I'm guessing he backtracks and stays in the rundown. Even if there's a play at 2nd that's not enough to advance Dozier home unless he throws it into CF. I love how Garza has pitched this year but it's inexplicable to me that a pitcher can't even throw over to a base out of fear of an error.
  9. It's August 8th. That Villar breakout ain't coming.
  10. 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.

  11. Just for the fun of it, I counted the correct/incorrect ball and strike calls from the first inning. In the 1st inning there were 2 incorrect strike calls against us, and 1 incorrect ball call for us, out of 9 possible calls. In the 2nd inning there were no incorrect calls out of 3 possible calls That is a total of 3 out of 12 incorrect, or 25%. That was one random inning one of one random game. I also did not penalize the umpire for borderline calls either way. How people can claim this is not a problem, I do not understand.
  12. Nice job working out of it, but holy cow I don't know how you catch a guy halfway between 1st and 2nd for the 3rd out and just stand there and hold the ball. Incredible.
  13. Leadoff single and there he sits. Same old 2nd half Brewer baseball.
  14. We lose too many games that we just simply can't afford to lose if we plan on being relevant in September.
  15. I'll take him over just about anybody Santana is like 3 for his last 32 and 1 for his last 16. I'll take the hot bat. Whoever that is I guess.
  16. 0fer the season trailing after 8 continues. Won't get an easier chance than we had tonight. Total hibernation for the offense after the early innings.
  17. Santana is like the last guy you want up right now the way he has gone lately. He just got his best pitch to hit and could do nothing with it.
  18. Lucky for the Twins Susac isn't their catcher, or that strike 3 to Broxton would have appeared a foot outside instead of just 2 inches outside like it actually was.
  19. Lol. This Twins pen is just utter crap that makes our pen look good and our bats still can do just nothing.
  20. 6 ERA reliever against our albatross of a late inning lineup = no problem.
  21. LOL. Of course we ground into a double play to erase the leadoff walk. Why wouldn't we?
  22. Aguilar just walked on 4 pitches. Will Perez be able to take a pitch?
