I hate to give it to Jack, but he had a point... Tork is the only one who has good ABs tonight against Keller

[Dtrain72]

Baddoo better figure his shit out by all star break or Green's gonne send his ass packin back to tony packos

[Motor City Sonics]

Uh-Oh,  Jack Morris just quoted Ricardo Montelbaun...............he's gonna be accused of racism now.

Barnhart is lucky there aren't robot strike zone umps yet...because his bat is pretty much worthless.

THat was breathtaking! 

I thought about that home run like I thought about the first time I saw my first born.

I don't think they should wait that long, actually.   When they call up Pineda they should keep Dazzer and let Baddoo fiture it out.   I still like the kid, but he seems overmatched right now.

AJ clearly must like Barnes... makes me nervous seeing him out there lol

Tork, Reyes and Cabrera have the three hardest hit balls of the game for either team.

Breathtaking! I thought about that home run like I thought about the first time I saw my first boob.

I wonder if a young player can maybe have too much success in ST and end up unready for pitchers who are playing for keeps.

[Sports_Freak]

Nobody listened when I said Torkelson was gonna be good. <ducks>

[RandyMarsh]

Seeing Tork launch a no doubter to LF brought back memories of prime Miggy when he used to do that regularly.

Well yeah, I was more thinking along the time frame of Green getting back after he heals up and rehabs in Toledo...but if Baddoo is still struggling after 40 games, it may be time to let someone else have a go at it.

I dont know that Victor is a better player than Baddoo, and I dont know that Baddoo should be sent down, but there's no doubt Victor should be the one getting reps on center at the moment.

yes. Akil is serviceable going left right in, asking him to go back is a bridge too far. He may have better speed than Victor but we've seen Victor show more ability go back and that needs to be the determinant for CF at CoPa, or Kaufman

[Dtrain72]

Reyes with the Vmart bad luck atom balls.

Well, it’s not like we didn’t know what we were getting.

 

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

suck it, Whit and Witt.

[chasfh]

Joey J just told Bobby Witt Jr, “Welcome to the big leagues, kid.”

[mtutiger]

Joe could stand to mix in an offspeed pitch here and there

[chasfh]

Single notwithstanding, this is arguably the best Joe Jimenez inning we have ever seen.
