fathom Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 What I don't get is Twins not throwing 2 strike offspeed pitches to our hitters. They always used to do that, and our hitters really struggled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danman31 Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 15, 2010 -> 08:57 PM) Probably anticipating this could be a loooongg 4 game series for their pen. Fair point, but we just saw the guaranteed runs the Sox were given by Burnett being in so long and he didn't get anyone out so it didn't save the bullpen. I understand the logic, but when the guy looks that bad you can't leave him in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Springfield Soxfan Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 QUOTE (danman31 @ Jul 15, 2010 -> 08:58 PM) Hahaha this guy is absolutely falling apart. One of the strangest balks you'll see. If he would have dropped the ball as Stone indicated earlier would it have just been a ball? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxbadger Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 I disagree. Mauer only got Pierre by half a step and has one of the most accurate arms for a catcher plus has great agility. Most catchers dont make that play. Hes Juan Pierre, you dont give up outs with real hitters, but its Juan Pierre. This is what he is on the team to do. I just have no faith that he wouldnt have popped up to 2nd, so Id rather he did something productive. If Juan starts to prove me wrong and gets his ba over .300 then Id say dont take the bat out of his hands, but Im not holding my breath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think so. His foot got stuck in the dirt so the resulting jerky hesitation would have been a balk even if he released the ball perfectly.

What did AJ get in to it about with Thome? After AJ popped out in the AB in the 3rd, he slammed his bat down, broke it in two, and chucked a broken piece into the Twins dugout fence. Thome took exception and tossed it back. Edited July 16, 2010 by Sockin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
