I think Kyle Gibson is going to have a pretty good game. The Tigers are not good and playing out the string with a lame duck manager. I think last game was just a blip, and really it was only a couple of innings he was bad.....I can't believe I believe Kyle Gibson can be a good pitcher. What a crazy season!
(that said, if a team is willing to trade a middling prospect for Gibson I won't complain)
MAX
that was a blast
He reminds me of Jacque Jones. Destroys righties with majestic golf swings and can't hit lefties wOrth a lick.
I was just looking, Kepler career slash line against lefties coming into this game was: .169/.238/.260/.498 (231 at bats)
woof
these numbers are going up.
damn, nice catch by the CFer.
Hoo-hah!
Sorry about the Mahtook bum-wheel (not really).
Buck!
Ooo, not good for Mahtook.
Here is your reminded that Byron Buxton is 0-1 lifetime stealing third base.
Tigers third base dude is having a rough night.
For a franchise that has prided itself on playing small ball for 50+ years, 90 stolen bases to crack the Top 10 seems really low.
Wow. Ricky H. had 130 in '82, and did 100+ 3 times.
Knoblauch has the Twins record with 62. Second place is Carew at 49. It tapers off fast after that. 35 steals gets you tied for tenth (with Knoblauch and Carew of course). Buxton has 27 this year, placing him 23rd.
Bremer hinting that Ausmus will have/let Romine play all nine positions, in Minnesota. I approve.
One Mizzou alum HR'ing off another
Joe's mojo isn't replenished from yesterday apparently
Who schedules a concert outside the stadium during the game?
Bremer very offended by the stray music invading the park.
LOL the pitcher instantly knew that was a home run.
7 IP 3 R, I'll take that line every time for any of our pitchers.
Regular season, sure. But I still want better in the wild card game.
How about 9 IP, 0 runs?
Depends. How many calls does Cuzzi miss?
Rottweilers & rockets!
A's beat Rangers. So close to losing in Yanqui Stadium we can almost taste it. At least it's only one game.
