  1. Wait. You mean Kansas City isn't in KANSAS? Whose dumb idea is that?
  2. yup - In fact I'd say in general one of the reasons that so few guys throw the curve anymore is that so many umps don't give the pitcher the whole K zone on a good curve.
  3. He looked like he actually laughing to himself as he turned back toward the plate after the ejection.
  4. you've got to be kidding me. Team can't score 70% of the league average runs but they have two 4 game winning streaks in 31 games. go figure.
  5. The ump is probably right on these calls. A curve is falling rapidly as it crosses the plate. That fact that the catcher catches it below the box doesn't mean it's not a strike.
  6. Haase a little too anxious in the last couple of AB. Ump doesn't give Lange the 1st perfect pitch.
  7. good AB by Torkelson - a hit would have been gooder though.
  8. boys need to score a few and put this out of reach. yeah ...that'll be happening...
  9. True enough, but OTOH, if you look at relievers as year to year propositions anyway, I suppose age matters less than whether he's can still bring 97.
  10. so how dumb was it that for all those years in the AL you could only have one IF on the mound in a conference?
  11. Schoop at least earned his meal money for the night there.
  12. I get why he they don't want to give up on him - it's a big arm and he has a pretty good slider to go with the FB, but it's like the light just doesn't come on all the time.
  13. Miguel Diaz is pitching well in relief at Toledo but he hasn't been able to translate that in his previous MLB auditions.
  14. Cisnero was probably seeing his career passing before his eyes after the second batter reached. He should have been.
  15. Cisnero?! I guess it had to happen - and he brings the tying run to the plate on one pitch. Hope his leash is really short.
  16. exactly - 26 pitches is getting to be a lot for a max effort guy like Hicks
  17. Guys always trying to get too clever. Morris always talked about not wanting to speed up or slow down the bat of a guy that is already either behind of ahead.
