caulfield12 Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 QUOTE (J.Reedfan8 @ Sep 2, 2010 -> 10:36 PM) It was just amazing to me the freak numbers that man was putting up with no protection, lots of injuries, and that team as bad as they've been not to mention the respect he gets with his IBB. He was near triple crown status just a week ago. (I thought he was going to catch Josh in average, only Bautista and his freak year in homers is what Miggy probably would not catch) I would say now it's still Hamiltons to lose, but now Konerko is more of an MVP candidate/runner up than Cabrera. Just watch, Cano, Bautista, Hamilton and Cabrera will all finish ahead of Konerko somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 (edited) 71-2 when leading after 7 69-1 when leading after 8 Despite having one more blown saves than the White Sox, the Twins have lost just a few times in those situations. We've lost what, at least 6-7 games in the second half alone when we've had the lead late??? Edited September 3, 2010 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The twins manufacture a run in an inning or two while the Sox swing for the fences every at bat think KC and Baltimore series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 (edited) Wow, for once Mauer didn't get the call. C'mon, big two out hit, Casper the Friendly Ghost is hitting .379 now. Crain extended to 40 pitches....gets the charitable call on the inside strike with the full count. Edited September 3, 2010 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Chappas Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 (edited) Joe West has given the Tigers two runs tonight with terrible calls. I really think the guy is senile. That's the Thome I remember. Come on Tigers they still have their closer available. Edited September 3, 2010 by Jenks Heat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you get to see the calls they are not simple missed calls they were calls that he made because he wanted to prove he could....both were terrible calls. He wanted to be a hero and show us what he can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep they had to go into their starting rotation. Kind of sad thinking they should have September call ups, but maybe they don't trust them or didn't call up many.

caulfield12 Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Raburn is the best hitter on the Tigers now after Cabrera and Jackson. Peralta was really out at 1B...thankfully we get the break there, and the Twins' bullpen has been decimated. Crain threw 40, Capps wasn't available due to overuse, Fuentes has a back problem and the Twins decided not to call up any pitchers from Rochester.

fathom Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Really bad decision to pitch Duensing here. Just not worth it, especially when you're up 4 games and you have the health of Baker in question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
