& this ball game is OVAHHHHHH

All I want to do is watch Garcia bat. Thank god the Breaking Bad marathon is on right now. I've been skipping back to the Sox game every 15-20 minutes to check on Avi's ABs.

Jose Uribe Stone Pony?

 

CMONNNNNNN

Well, at least we can be no worse than TIED for the 2nd draft pick again after today...those pesky Marlins are trying to catch us/fall back to us, depending on how you want to look at it.

DeAza leadoff double to RF corner. Beckham grounds to SS DeAza out at 3rd, baserunning blunder. Alexei foul pop out to Morneau. Dunn takes strike 3 on 1-2 pitch. 1 stranded.

 

And that's why OPS and WAR and fWAR notwithstanding, DeAza's not going to fetch much in the offseason and is still a candidate for non-tendering.

Eff this Twins D man....

 

All series long we have been hitting absolute bullets & they are just positioned perfect.

And that's why OPS and WAR and fWAR notwithstanding, DeAza's not going to fetch much in the offseason and is still a candidate for non-tendering.

That'd be lunacy.

 

We need a coach who can get to him. Like Robin Ventura did in 2012.

Good let them.

 

A certain NC State picther is calling our name.

What? You mean the same guy that Hahn asked for the Phillies best prospect in return.

Oh great RV concedes with Axe....

 

He should NOT be taking up a spot on the big league club.

Axelrod cannot pitch relief or starting. We are done here. Someone please notify Ventura

That'd be lunacy.

Why is it that ALL of the Latin position players across the board (DeAza, Ramirez, Rios and Viciedo) have struggled in all these areas (fundamentals, base-running and defense) SEEMINGLY the entire length of the season?

 

Can someone please explain that one? Maybe the coaches just don't have a good repoire with those players?

 

No idea. But it's weird...

I'm sure they're just waiting until they can expand the roster to call up more relievers.

If somebody has to inform him of that he simply shouldn't be managing.

How much of a laughing soundtrack did that engender in response?

 

We're not talking about Dominic Brown anymore, so who is/was their best prospect at the time of trade discussion/s?

 

We can always send DeAza to the Pirates via waivers....assuming he gets to them. He'd be better than Schierholtz and probably Rios for them as a platoon candidate/4th outfielder.

I'm sure they're just waiting until they can expand the roster to call up more relievers.

 

Why wait? Let them get their feet wet

GEEEEESH....Leury Garcia with some SERIOUS range on that play.

The funny thing is that DJ was just going on and on about how good Quintana was to be throwing a shutout without his best stuff and then that happened...

Bee Eye N Gee Oh

Yup, so funny....

Huh?

For some reason, we're comparing Beckham's range at 2B (possibly SS) with Garcia's at SS...not sure why, though.

 

Don't buy for a minute that Gordon at 2B would translate into the type of arm/range/athleticism of Garcia at SS. Just NO way.

Huh?

 

Not watching the game?

 

They just showed a highlight of him against the Mariners that was extremely impressive.

Miggy homers off Rivera again

Victor homers off Rivera & he blew another save....

 

Yikes
