June 1, 201411 yr Sale now owns the 4th best K/BB in the AL. Behind only Tanaka (slightly), Phil Hughes (LOL WHAT), and David Price (10 K/BB!!!!) EDIT: And Sale's WHIP is somewhere around 0.60, which is definitely leading the majors. Edited June 1, 201411 yr by Chilihead90
June 1, 201411 yr Also, it would be really cool if the AL All-star game starter came down to Sale or Buehrle. Although I could see Phil Hughes sneaking in there since he's the home pitcher.
June 1, 201411 yr Great to see Paulie come back to life for a game... This offense needs a big boost and I think I know just the person to bring it

Although I could see Phil Hughes sneaking in there since he's the home pitcher. Sale missed too much time. He'll still make the team if he makes 6 more starts, but Buehrle and Tanaka are ahead right now. Hughes, Keuchel, Kluber, Gray, Darvish, Felix, Weaver, and Sale will be on roster I would think about 6 weeks away. Edited June 1, 201411 yr by flavum
June 1, 201411 yr Angels and Yankees lose. Angels with the first wildcard on pace for 86-87 wins. Big series next weekend. http://espn.go.com/mlb/standings/_/type/wild-card/group/5 Tigers 4-10 last 14, but I think they'll bounce back. But baseball happens.

June 2, 201411 yr QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Jun 1, 2014 -> 11:18 PM) I'm confused about how Mauer fits in to the equation here. Twins representative for the ASG, this implying Phil Hughes would probably make it instead
June 2, 201411 yr QUOTE (Dunt @ Jun 1, 2014 -> 11:28 PM) Twins representative for the ASG, this implying Phil Hughes would probably make it instead Yea people were saying how Mauer was going to make it because the all star game is in Minnesota and he's the fan favorite but even they have started to boo him and you just can't take him with the way everyone else is playing
June 2, 201411 yr QUOTE (Dunt @ Jun 1, 2014 -> 11:28 PM) Twins representative for the ASG, this implying Phil Hughes would probably make it instead No no no, I was referring to Phil Hughes being the starting pitcher for the game. He absolutely deserves to make the all-star game, regardless of where it's being played or needed to represent the Twins. I am saying I can see them giving him the nod to START over guys like Sale or Buehrle, simply because he is the hometown guy.
June 2, 201411 yr Also, it would be really cool if the AL All-star game starter came down to Sale or Buehrle. Although I could see Phil Hughes sneaking in there since he's the home pitcher. Can you imagine what that would do to NL hitters having to face Sale and Buehrle back to back?
June 2, 201411 yr QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jun 2, 2014 -> 07:13 AM) Can you imagine what that would do to NL hitters having to face Sale and Buehrle back to back? Too bad we would have had to sit through the last two years, plus that horrible contract, to see it.
June 2, 201411 yr Too bad we would have had to sit through the last two years, plus that horrible contract, to see it. No, I meant back to back, as in consecutive plate appearances. Go face sale throwing his high 90s fastball and nasty slider in the 1st inning and then come up in the 3rd and have to deal with the high 70s changeup.
June 2, 201411 yr QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jun 1, 2014 -> 11:23 PM) Got some good pics of Sale in pregame warmup Edit: damn phone If he didnt make pitching look easy enough, he he does it standing sideways.
