caulfield12 Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 QUOTE (iamshack @ May 22, 2012 -> 08:38 PM) This showing is probably costing them millions of dollars at the gate... LOL. Those millions were lost in April and May of 2011, and with the KW/Ozzie travelling circus all season long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 22, 2012 -> 08:33 PM) Can anyone live with Beckham as a 650 OPS hitter at 2B? The top 8 2B in the AL are all at 680 OPS and above. Of the regulars, he's only ahead of Jermile Weeks of OAK. Then, including NL, you have Scutaro, Danny Espinosa, our newly-acquired Orlando Hudson and Richie Weeks. Close to Neil Walker and Brandon Phillips. So two Weeks in the bottom 3, lol. He's also a Gold Glove caliber defender, so that's got to be taken into consideration as well. All things considered, we have to hope he can be a 700-725 contributor there, 675 on the bottom end. What is Gordon's OPS this month? Projecting Gordon as our 2B of the future is predicated on the fact that we believe April wasn't the Gordon Beckham that we'll ever see again. We can all agree that if he puts up a .400 OPS every other month, he shouldn't be on the team. The debate isn't worth having unless you believe that he's turned a corner for good.

Jake Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 After the first inning, Walters has pitched damn well. He has kept that very lively sinker down in the zone and has moved the ball around and changed speeds. Needed to take advantage in the first/not get jobbed on the 3-2 call for Dunn In other news, Stewart's stuff looks awesome tonight. Pounding the zone as well.

stretchstretch Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 QUOTE (fathom @ May 22, 2012 -> 08:37 PM) Twins record might be bad, but they've been playing pretty damn good as of late. Walters is better than the guys that had been starting for them. I hear ya, but they still have the worst record in the bigs, and though coming off a 4 gm winstreak, SO ARE WE, and getting lambasted 9-1 through 4 innings is just soooo Sox-Twins under any and all circumstances.
