August 5, 201015 yr Author Oh yeah, and since the Royals are still in the AL Central, Jose Guillen was DFA'ed. No, the Sox should not pick him up. .236/.305/.369/.674 in his last 352 PAs .242/.277/.335/.613 in his last 174 PAs .175/.224/.299/.523 in his last 107 PAs .073/.093/.122/.215 in his last 43 PAs It is possible to be worse than Kotsay.

Another $36 million wasted by Dayton Moore.
August 7, 201015 yr Thome is going to have a homer after it's reviewed and the Twins are going to tie the game at 6.
August 7, 201015 yr Shame on Chris Perez for throwing a fastball away to Thome. The guy can't pull anything anymore.
August 7, 201015 yr It wasn't overturned even though it looked like it cleared. lol Thome said "F you" in the dugout and it was clear as day.
August 7, 201015 yr Gotta hope the Indians walk the Twins off somehow now. I hate Alexi Casilla so much. It always seems like he comes up with huge hits, even though he's a crappy baseball player. Edited August 7, 201015 yr by chw42
August 8, 201015 yr Looks like the Sox will face Glen Perkins on Wednesday instead of Slowey. Not a bad trade off even though we hit Slowey hard. But Slowey or Perkins who has a 6.00+ ERA in TRIPLE A.

August 8, 201015 yr Perkins ERA is high in AAA, but it was over 10 for a good chunk of the early season. He has pitched better over the past month or so.

August 14, 201015 yr The baseball gods really do hate us... the Twins get Gio who dominated us, and he walks 3 in the first inning.....so far....
August 14, 201015 yr Twins have a horse shoe up their ass lately with all the jams they're getting out of.
August 14, 201015 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 13, 2010 -> 09:42 PM) Twins have a horse shoe up their ass lately with all the jams they're getting out of. The A's have 3 times more hits than the Twins do (12 to 4) yet only half the amount of runs (4 to 2).
August 14, 201015 yr Valencia is gonna be nice little player. Got the 3B position locked up for the Twins in the future.

His 4 game stretch against Baltimore and Kansas City has kept his OPS at .759. Seriously. First 25 games - .310/.372/.352/.724 (78 PAs) 4 game stretch - .737/.750/1.105/1.855 (20 PAs) Since that time - .167/.220/.204/.424 (59 PAs) He's been adequate. I hope the Twins make him the 3Bman of the future, because he's really not that good. Probably a utility player.

August 14, 201015 yr he is a lot better than the corpses they have dragged out in recent year...Mike Lamb, Tony Batista, Brian Buscher
