Leadoff walk to the early frontrunner for MVP.
Good job, Lou.

Any update??

[feekdogg]

I don't pay attention to other teams. How many other managers manage strictly on analytics like Rocco? Are there a lot of them?

He learned this nonsense from Kevin Cash in Tampa. Others do it too, but he'd be the top of the heap.
Dave Roberts does all kinda of stupid shit, but it's not driven by analytics.

Leadoff walk to the early frontrunner for MVP.
Good job, Lou.

Any update??

He froze Ohtani for strike 3, then got Freeman to GIDP.

But I think you knew that.

[LwnmwrMan222]

LOTTA Dodgers fans in the house. Probably 60/40.

[weimy froob]

that might've been the worst julien AB--and he's had more than a few bad ones.

Other than Mr. longneck in front of me, we got have decent seats tonight.

[weimy froob]

correa's been making good contact this year. last night he scalded one that was an out--and his first AB tonight was another one where he hit it hard. over 100 miles an hour.

[weimy froob]

should probably get this in there after corey talked about it. maybe this was kepler's problem.

[weimy froob]

first big spot for varland with two outs. let's see what happens.

[weimy froob]

he strands two.

[LwnmwrMan222]

There's a chance, if Julien sucks tonight, the Twins could have 5 batters in the starting lineup batting under .100.

[Hornets]

Last year it was Miranda who failed to live up to his hype and he was quickly sent on his way from Minneapolis to St. Paul. Looks like Julien and Wallner might be following in his footsteps. UGH

[weimy froob]

ohtani won that battle. 114 miles an hour off the bat--but it stayed in the ballpark.

[feekdogg]

Varland with some nice pitches in tough spots.

[weimy froob]

louie's throwing good--but he needs a couple of one or two pitch outs to get him at least thru five. that's all rocco's going to let him go tonight i'm sure.

[Hornets]

Austin Martin with his first MLB hit!!!

[feekdogg]

I knew Martin was fast, but he turned the corner quick.

[weimy froob]

congrats!

Section 115?

[Hornets]

Eddie needs to pick up his game, eh?

[weimy froob]

at least it was a swinging third strike for julien that time. that's where he's most vulnerable too--that inside strike.

[weimy froob]

another big spot for louie.

[weimy froob]

and he gives up the three run HR. going to switch over to the t-wolves now.

Woof.
This one's over, the way the Twins' bats are going.

Musta heard Naz was ejected and said "hold my beer".

[LwnmwrMan222]

Woof.

Same thing my kid said. This one's over cause the Twins ain't scoring 3.

[weimy froob]

too bad. it was a decent start for him with some real nice pitches--but a walk, a hit and then the bomb to the number seven hitter. twins are probably done.

[feekdogg]

and he gives up the three run HR. going to switch over to the t-wolves now.

That one's not going any better.

[LwnmwrMan222]

This team is pathetic. They don't even act like they care.

Stand up there, take strike 3, drop the bat and walk back.

Swing away, miss everything, drop the bat, walk back.

Zero emotion.


50-132.
