I'm unsure as to why Marc Gasol got DPOY when Larry Sanders would have blocked 4 shots a game had he averaged 36 minutes... I've never really thought of Marc Gasol as an elite defender either.

I just realized P.J. Carlesimo looks like Gene Parmesan from Arrested Development.

Should I go?
Wrigley's not horribad. The park is very different compared to other parks, but I don't get the historical feeling when I go there really. The ivy is nice, but that's more or less the only thing that stands out IMO. The food sucks (roof top food FTW though), the place is dirty, and the bathrooms are awful.

The team played alright in the second half. Rip Hamilton shouldn't play another minute in the series. He's so damn bad.

I'm really starting to feel bitter about Derrick Rose. Joakim Noah is out there playing on one foot and Derrick's sitting his ass on the bench. FWIW, I hope a good amount of the fan base turns on him. I want him to re-earn his spot as the superstar on this team. There's no guarantee he returns to pre-injury form after he finally does play sometime next season. I wouldn't be surprised if the boo birds came out if he struggles.

The f*** is up with this defense? Great pinch running Robin! Way to f*** up the defense while you're at it.

The only reason Doumit is even in the game is because Ventura decided to put in Veal against Arcia.
-
Twins @ White Sox, 4/20/12
Alexei could have gotten Doumit out at third as well.

Twins @ White Sox, 4/20/12
Wow come on Alexei. You gotta make a better throw. And horrible awareness by Keppinger. Fitting...

QUOTE (Jake @ Apr 20, 2013 -> 05:20 PM) So...we had some benefit in having Paul Konerko on first base? It seems like the theory here is we never were going to score a run there and we were just going to wait until Rios-PK came to bat again. You can't manage like that. If you have a guy on second with one out and Konerko is on second, then I understand. Pinch run for him. But the probability of us scoring that inning with a man on first and one out is not very high. On average, the run expectancy in that case is about .6 runs. With how we have been hiting, it's much lower. And watch Escobar kill us here.

This is easily one of the worst games Robin's had as a manager.

QUOTE (Jake @ Apr 20, 2013 -> 05:18 PM) I assumed the reason was to have a guy that could score on a double/two singles. We've had one extra basehit all day and we have 6 hits on the day, 2 of them belonging to the guy we pinch ran for.

Twins @ White Sox, 4/20/12
There was no reason to pinch run Greene unless you planned to run with him. He only went on the last pitch of Alexei's PA. SMH.

QUOTE (Jake @ Apr 20, 2013 -> 05:09 PM) We've heard so much about players changing things under Manto (especially compared to when Walker was here)...it was only a matter of time before something went terribly wrong. Let's hope they can counter adjust. This has moved beyond "just a slump" I think Manto's changes work better with guys who don't depend on plate discipline (i.e. Rios). Dunn is a completely different case.
-
Twins @ White Sox, 4/20/12
They're seriously pinch running for our best hitter? Jesus Christ Robin, this is awful. It's unlikely we're gonna score this inning.
-
Twins @ White Sox, 4/20/12
Adam Dunn is 0 for his last 29. That new approach of his is obviously not working. Manto might have ruined Adam Dunn even more than he was already ruined.
-
Twins @ White Sox, 4/20/12
WTF is Robin doing? Why not bring in Thronton to start the inning if he was going to use him against Morneau anyways? We're having issues scoring to begin with. This game will go on for a while if the bullpen doesn't blow it.
