IdahoBert Posted May 18 Posted May 18 Looks like they’re going to have to actually not allow the Jays to score runs. Quote
IdahoBert Posted May 18 Posted May 18 I don’t want Santander to beat us. The last I heard he was on a ventilator and in traction in the hospital. i’m only following this on game day. I’m away from home. Is he only wearing a hospital gown? 1 1 Quote
gehringer_2 Posted May 18 Posted May 18 I love Kahnle as *part* of our BP. Not so sure I love him having to be the go to guy. also may be time for Dingler be hitting higher in the order. I know catchers don't necessary like hitting high in the order and AJ like to take care of his catchers,, but that's the tax for being a hitter. Quote
gehringer_2 Posted May 18 Posted May 18 another bone head play. Tiger's haven't always played their usual brand of flawless ball in this series. Quote

I know a W doesn’t mean much for us for any particular pitcher, but apparently it’s a big deal to pitchers themselves or so I’ve heard. I don’t know if this means pitchers are a bit on the dense side or not… As long as their future earnings potential turns on certain statistics, they will always want to maximize those statistics. Wins is definitely on the way out as a descriptive statistic, but I do think it’s hanging on with some pitchers, at least in perception. Quote

So it’s been a long line of people since 1870 with that name. So, “Anderson”, and neither “Andersson” or “Andersen”? Quote
gehringer_2 Posted May 18 Posted May 18 (edited) So @chasfh, related to the topic yesterday about balls coming into play - note how catchers getting a new ball throw it to the pitcher while they are still holding the old one and don't toss the old one away until after the throw? I'm trying think if I'd ever paid attention to that but my impression of my memory is that it wasn't done that way back in the day. Edited May 18 by gehringer_2 Quote
lordstanley Posted May 18 Posted May 18 I would have liked some insurance. Bichette is up 3rd and Guerrero would be up 4th. Quote

chasfh Posted May 18 Posted May 18 I don’t want to walk Vlad but I sure don’t want him to beat me. Quote
