Fire Mike Hargrove. GO TWINS!!

Ah, thanks
Wasn't sure where you went.

by Gomez on Jun 7, 2006 9:37 PM PDT reply actions  

Watch the last week's games
And you'd be strongly tempted to have hope for this team again.  Especially after tonight.

by Gomez on Jun 7, 2006 9:39 PM PDT up reply actions  

If they take the next 3 or 4 series after this one
Then I may get a little excited about this team.For now I'm just banking on individual performances.

There's only one word for that: loser.

Beltre
Had the ESPN web gem of the night with that barehanded play.  I didn't think I'd say it, but good job Beltre.  And you hit a home run, double good job.

Beltre hit a homer?
Did I miss something?

Sean Green has 4 Ks looking
he has some wicked movement on that sinker

The box score tells me
that Sean Green has been terrific.

by Jeff Sullivan on Jun 7, 2006 9:42 PM PDT reply actions  

Yep...
And Ichiro got career hit # 2500.

Sexson looks like he's officially heading back to 2005 form.

And Joe Mauer still refuses to make outs.

by PLU Tim on Jun 7, 2006 9:44 PM PDT up reply actions  

For a non-descript groundballer
He sure does a good job of fooling batters.

by Gomez on Jun 7, 2006 9:45 PM PDT up reply actions  

To whoever suggested
a Morse/Snelling platoon for DH, that's not such a bad idea:

Morse, versus lefties career:
92 AB, .293/.369/.424

Small sample size of course, and that's still not terribly much power, but it's certainly better the everett. And of course, Snelling can just take over full time if Morse struggles.

Over/under
on Torii Hunter hitting 0.5 grand slams this at bat?

by Rollo Tomasi on Jun 7, 2006 9:52 PM PDT reply actions  

Relax everyone
George was simply pitching smart.  Walking Mauer only means one run, but pitching to Mauer means 4 runs.

And besides...Torri Hunter vs. Raffy?  Puhhhlease.

YAY JOSE!

by WAB on Jun 7, 2006 9:52 PM PDT reply actions  

Exactly.
A walk to Mauer in that situation, with a 5-run lead, when Mauer is tough, tough, tough vs. lefties, is totally fine.  Not "perfect" of course, but definitely not the worst thing that could've happened.  

Not sure I would've wanted George in there, with Mauer's stats vs. lefties in the first place.  Of course, the M's really can't seem to get him out anyway, (can anyone?).  I'll take a bases-loaded walk in that situation darn near every time.

That pitch 0-2 pitch by Soriano was indeed outside.

Free George Sherrill. And Dan Rohn.

i have a bad feeling about this
torii hunter's gonna hit a home run here. not that i want him to, i just feel it. We were feeling waaaay too good about the m's just a few minutes ago. We have to be brought down to earth.

Needs to be fired as an umpire, then burned at the stake like in Silent Hill.  Fuckin' blind-ass umpire.

by BrettJMiller on Jun 7, 2006 10:00 PM PDT reply actions  

Nope. Soriano's bad.
That 0-2 pitch was at least 2 inches outside.  It didn't even seem that close to me.  

Not sure if the ump's been calling that all night, but it wasn't a strike according to normal strike zone rules...

Soriano's surrendered waaaay too many game-tying homers this year.  That makes me nervous.  I wanted a ground ball pitcher in there vs. Mauer and beyond...

Free George Sherrill. And Dan Rohn.

by PositivePaul on Jun 7, 2006 10:04 PM PDT up reply actions  

FWIW
I agree.  It was flirting with the outside part of the plate, but it wasn't a clear strike.

by manyoso on Jun 7, 2006 10:06 PM PDT up reply actions  

Good side
Surely, this will crush any of the enthusiasm that the team had built up during past week...meaning another 0-6 roadtrip is on the way.

You know what that means!

YAY JOSE!

by WAB on Jun 7, 2006 10:01 PM PDT reply actions  

Rumors will circulate that Grover will get fired
Then we'll win one to go 1-6 in our last 7 and that's all Lincoln and Armstrong need to see to keep Grover in place?

by BrettJMiller on Jun 7, 2006 10:02 PM PDT up reply actions  

we're out of the race?
I don't know, i guess it's getting kinda old. Why are fans openly rooting against the team just to get hargrove fired. I don't like him, but i'd much rather see the m's succeed.

Oh shit
I'm starting to dislike Michael Cuddyer.

by sactown257 on Jun 7, 2006 10:31 PM PDT reply actions  

That first pitch to Cuddyer
would have been a great time for Hargrove to come rolling out of the dugout and get himself tossed.

Why should he?
There's no buffet out there.

Should start shoving strip steaks in his pants.

...

Yeah, same to you.

Hey Ump
Try not calling a ball. Cool things might happen, you blind, fat douche fucker.

by JLC on Jun 7, 2006 10:32 PM PDT reply actions  

I was just thinking...
When someone takes a pic off of your site and posts it on another site, you can see it, right?

That means that the bald chick may be signing up for an annount as we speak.

I am still...
a non-spell checking douche bag.

CUDDYER
YEAH GO GET YOUR SECOND GRAND SLAM AT DENNY'S, BITCH.

Okay
That was deceptively hilarious.

Crain?
Okay, we gotta hit him right?

Reed's last at bat this month
I know! We can teach someone to hit against lefties by benching them every time we face them! -Mike Hargrove

This keeps going and we will be approaching
our record for most comments in one game. I think our previous was like 862 or something like that.
Fire Mike Hargrove. GO TWINS!!

JESSE CRAIN BLOWS
Just don't swing once this entire inning and you'll win.

Man, Reed...wtf.

YAY JOSE!

Hmmmm....
does anyone else want a petagine sighting here? Yeah, it would mean willie comes in afterwards, but it's a good shot at trying to win it here.

HEY
Betancourt wasn't pinch hit for!  That's a good sign.

by Gomez on Jun 7, 2006 10:39 PM PDT up reply actions  

I'm surprised
Willie hasn't pinch-hit for Reed.

by ThundaPC on Jun 7, 2006 10:38 PM PDT up reply actions  

Betancourt!
Creeping towards .300!!!!!!!
