I'm sure the sun is bad, but if Florimon can't play defense, what exactly is it that he can do?
"The guy comes from the Dominican Republic, where the sun shines three hundred and sixty days a year, and he loses a fly ball in the sun!" Harry Caray
I know what people mean when they say it, but is there really a "National League style" and an "American League style" any more?
9th batter hits like a pitcher or doesn't hit like a pitcher.
A hit-and-run with Parmelee on first and Fuld up to bat? Good grief.
Apparently, Nolasco is going to stop being "almost good" by not being good at all.
I can't believe they've only scored 4 runs!
The Twins are on a pace to get the same score as the U. S. men's soccer team today.
About time for me to leave. Maybe things will get better after I'm gone. Go get 'em, Twins.
Nolasco and Weaver have same K/BB rate in 6 innings, no HRs allowed and Nolasco has far better GB rate. Sometimes it just ain't your day.
That's only comforting if it doesn't apply to every start.
Note: This is game 77.
Thanks secret game log correcter!
I was about to complain about a .229/.301/.337 batter leading off when I realized they almost literally have no other options. The bench is what, Fryer & Willingham?
No options? How about moving Fuld to 9th with everyone else moving up a spot. Dozier led off in April when the Twins were near the top of the AL in runs scored. I'd even stomach Escobar leading off over Fuld. Terrible decision, although just having to play Fuld and Florimon in the same lineup has a lot bigger impact than where they bat.
Well that move certainly worked out well.
I am here. Let the winning begin.
Well, if our sweeps are longer series than our swepts, we'll make some headway.
Mauer's batting average up to .270 with the bases clearing double.
Those good feelings from the White Sox series are gone again.
