Hah. Doumit caught the ball so far away from home plate, he didn't think he had a chance until he saw Cabrera so far away. I'll give him points for diving to attempt to get Cabrera out.
Delmon has been worth -0.7 rWAR this year and being paid $6.75 million. What a great trade.
addition almost entirely by subtraction? Cole Nelson looks like a never-gonna-be. Lester Oliveros might be a bullpen something next year. One can hope, anyway.
we'll have to wait on Oliveros because he had Tommy John
Oh, right. 2014 then.
I hope the Twins score a run this series
didnt realize Escobar is wearing Cuddy's old number 5.
they didn't retire his number?
If Cuddy was so great, he would have made it disappear.
that made me laugh.
off to the gym. Bring 'em back, guys.
OMG. Revere just about hit a opposite field HR over the fence
Mauer with a RBI 'hit' and his 80th RBI on the year. #boooo
quick hook for Scherzer. The Tigers must be really worries about that shoulder
Tie game!
I better turn on the radio, then.
It was 2-0 Tigers when I logged on last night. It was 5-0 by the time I got Gameday pulled up, so I shut it back off.
Jim LaRussa.
the worst thing about September baseball is that everyone has 75 pitchers in the bullpen
Pitcher roulette.
RISPy
BWHAHAHAA
That was awesome.
There will be (mental) errors.
this just in, Detroit's defense is awful
Nice catch, but maybe bad choice to catch the ball. I doubt it will end up mattering in the game though.
not unless Gardy brings in Alex Burnett
more runs~!!
Wow, Joe. He's feeling it today.
MAUER TRIPLE!!!!!!!!
you guys have been handling Joe/Miggy well so far today -- well done!
Cabrera: .332
Mauer : .326
Dick Bremer suggests that there is an elevated awareness in batting average titles amongst Twins fans going all the way back.
me: Yeah, its because for the most part, the teams has been average to terrible and having a hit king is the only thing to cling onto in September.
to be fair, Oliva and Carew set a high standard for Twins batters early on.
That's what I was trying to say, but I used way more words.
Of course, the Twins have to have a player within striking distance of the batting title for the fans to care, and for the most part, that's been the case for Twins teams going way back.
Watching Mauer on a bad day is better than watching the Vikes on a good day.
Bud Selig and Gary Bettmann rolled into one person is better than the replacement refs the NFL hired.
Hey now, don't say things you can't take back.
That challenge sequence for the Vikings/Niners was bizarre- truly comical.
you know what, the SAME THING HAPPENED three plays later. WTF!
I have the feeling that Harbaugh will keep throwing that challenge flag until someone takes it away from him.
Billion dollar league. 10 cent officials.
This Toby stuff is getting hilarious.
And even more hilarious.
Four fumbles and an interception in the last 10 plays.
Got pretty sloppy. Not surprising when the refs are mucking everything up.
Harbaugh should challenge every play if they're gonna let him.
Selig picks fight with Don Fehr-led union: Dumb
Bettman picks fight with Don Fehr-led union after he's defeated Selig: Dumber.
So you're saying Replacement Refs are basically "Dumb & Dumber 3: Dumber and Dumberest"?
yes.
Alex Burnett?! THIS STORY ONLY ENDS ONE WAY
oh man, Alex Burnett is in.
Let's get Burnett nice and tired so Gardy can't use him in the nightcap.
geez Louise, Alex, END THIS
tiring out the tigers batters so they're burnt out for the nightcap.
Jeter with 2 hits: .322
Trout with an ohfer: .323
Still on track for 73-99. We can't lose 100 games this year!
all Joe Mauer gets is hits
But not Miggy.
Or any other Tiger.
nice catch by the LF dude. I thought Mauer had a double.
Miggy hit, get an RBI :/
has there been much discussion here about the Trout/Cabrera MVP debate?
I haven't seen anything. Of course, there's no debate to be had right now anyway.
Because Trout is still running away with it?
Yes.
