    1. Actually, his front leg seemed to have skipped over the plate, so maybe he was out.

      1. because Plouffe is back so Carroll is not playing

        mind as well put Mauer in the one hole

  1. Florimon is now hitting in the .220s. He cant be imitating Jacque Jones at SS by chucking the ball 25 rows in the stands

  2. Play-by-play guy and Bert discussing whether they would pick Pujols at his peak or Cabrera right now. Both pick Cabrera right now. Cabrera 2010-2013 hit .337/.424/.608 while Pujols from 2001-2010 hit .331/.426/.624. Almost identical, except for Pujols' better defense at first and doing it for triple the plate appearances. The Triple Crown is so mythical it transcends anything else.

  3. something completely random from digging around b-r, but I didnt realize Juan Rincon was a freaking beast in the bullpen for so long, and his 2004 season was awesome: 77 games, 82 IP, 106 K (11.6 k/9)

  4. FOX guy asking Bert about hitting strategy is hilarious
    about Mauer's great 2-strike hitting
    FOX guy: 'its because of his compact swing?'
    Bert: 'well...its because the pitcher is trying to make a perfect pitch and misses'

  5. Alex Cobb hit in the head earlier today with a line drive. Encouraging to see the trainer waste no time in running onto the field.

  6. The birthday boy comes through! Deduno with another Cy Young-worthy performance! We're still on track for 127-35!
