Twins face Misiorowski today and Tigers face Logan Webb. Let’s gain a game on all three teams.

Agreed. I think people are considering him a top prospect (maybe subconsciously) because of the heater he has been on at the plate. I don’t think enough people are considering where he will play defensively.

It was much more fun when Martin pitching at home was pretty much a guaranteed win.

Here’s the video of Bonemer’s HR from last night.

Bonemer homers again.

I was referring to this year. I would have said Castillo is good if talking about past years.

I figured they threw in Smith because Castillo is decent and Dominguez sucks.

So should we accept what he’s saying as true or not? Seems like you are saying both in this thread. Look, the whole thing is really strange. I don’t know what to believe. I’m not even trying to argue one way or another. But I do think an appeal is a strange thing pull out of your ass. My feeling is that there’s some truth in that. What do you think the purpose was of Venable coming out of the dugout? He doesn’t make mound visits unless he’s changing pitchers. That’s what makes the whole thing so weird.

What appeal was he trying to execute?

Got ourselves a little game thread controversy. Bumping the one that was created first.

What appeal was he trying to execute? He said he walked out there to execute an appeal and forgot they had already used one mound visit.

Well he pitched a solid 1 through 4, then got bombed in the 5th. Oh well. Here’s some positive stuff: Bonemer is 2-4 with a 2B, HR, and BB

What part of my post are you saying “no chance” to? EDIT: Ah, it must be the “secretly a genius” part. I was genuinely confused what happened, because nothing made sense. Glad we got an explanation with Will trying to execute and appeal. There had to be some reason he came out there.

My thoughts exactly. What happened there? Hopefully Sandlin goes 6 innings, we win the game, and Will is secretly a genius.

I hope Sandlin pitches well tonight. A solid innings 5 through 8 would be great. Thanks in advance.

I actually think this could just be a ridiculously extreme case of “hitting is contagious”. And because of that, I think they cool down at the wrong time (playoff time).

Carlson has reached base all five times. 3-3 with 2 BBs.

1 earned run. Only 1.

Yep. We’re undefeated against the Red Sox this year when facing a righty starter.

You’re on the right track! Actually, you’re not even close. It’s Billy Madison.

I got a feeling your whole family’s goin down.

Colson the DH tonight. I know some have speculated he’s still nursing some injuries. Day off yesterday and DH today could help.

Castillo won’t pitch against Cleveland. He’s pitching in the third game of the Boston series.

Agreed. But if Ray Ray is going to call people out on cherry picking time periods, then he shouldn’t be doing the same.

I wasn’t asking you because I was trying to defend Doyle. I was asking because it seemed obvious you chose September 1 because it made Doyle look as bad as possible, which I think you are willing to admit with your “bully” comment.
