Welcome to Mr. Irrelevant...err, most irrelevant MLB game on the docket for today, except for draft choice position next June.

 

 

Nice try Twins...you gave Kendrys Morales his spring training at the MLB level and then probably shipped him out at pennies on the dollar to the M's.

 

Building that new ballpark was the worst thing that ever happened to them from a competitive standpoint. It has turned into Safeco Central.

Far more irrelevant than the SD\Cubs tilt.

The Padres are more interesting because they have no GM and yet seemingly are making trades everyday.

 

Plus the Cubs fans have their Iowa team to flip back and forth to for a diversion. We have The Great Andy Wilkins Debate.

 

 

Somehow, I'm sure the Cubs/Pads game will win the ratings battle.

 

 

 

At least Robin Ventura has made it quite convenient by placing our three best hitters 1-3...so we can now tune out for the 4-9 hitters.

 

 

Finally, Matt Guerrier was just DFA'ed by the Twins. Might as well bring him back to Chicago so his career can come full circle.

Poor Twins.

 

Chuck Knoblauch allegedly assaulted his ex-wife, so his induction into the Twins' Hall of Fame was cancelled on August 23rd.

 

Traded Kendrys Morales after getting an Adam Dunn 2011 boost from his signing.

 

DFA'ed Matt Guerrier.

 

Mauer is terrible/hurting and one of the 5-10 worst contracts in baseball currently.

 

Sano and Buxton are injured.

 

Whatever happened to Terry "The Genius" Ryan?

Yeah no GM is far more interesting than Jose Abreu.

Yet despite that interesting presence (and one of the top 5-7 pitchers in baseball), we're still somehow trailing Houston and Miami in attendance.

 

Bottom 5 in tv ratings, 28th in attendance.

 

One would shudder to think how depressing this season would have been without Abreu and Rodon (now).

Noesi has a 4.5ish ERA on the season for the Sox as a starter. He's fine as a 5th, but won't fetch anything significant from another team yet.

 

Just get a 2 starter and we're set with Rodon as no more than a projected 4 to start in 2015 or 2016. Easier said than done.

That was a nice K pitch out of Noesi.

 

And Beckham just hit one hard. 2 days in a row he has hit a ball hard.

 

But 1 for his last 23 nevertheless.

 

 

BTW, the Tigers are nuts if they're going to use Soria in the 7th, Joba in the 8th and Nathan in the 9th. Unless they just use Soria like they used to utilize Zumaya. And DD wants to add 1-2 more pitchers to their pen. They are really desperate to win it all this year with Scherzer and Martinez.

Flowers now with 6 k's in 29 rejuvenated Ab's with magical glasses.

 

Tied with Dunn now...106 K's.

 

 

At least the Twins are going to honor Konerko in their last trip to Minny...

 

Eaton slow to get up after that double. Wincing a little bit.
