All the dancing and drums last night in Vancouver made me tired. Coffee Stat. Any Olympic medal predictions?

 eschapp  October 11, 2009, at 4:43 pm  364 LTEs - (Sorry, but the time to add LTEs has expired)  2009 Post Season, Andy Pettitte, Carl Pavano The ALDS finally comes back to the Metrodome tonight with Andy Pettitte pitching against Carl Pavano. I'm sure the smartest man in baseball is hungry for a win against his former team. On that note, be prepared to mute TBS when they start bitching about the contract Carl had with the Yanquis. It seemed [...] eschapp October 4, 2009, at 12:00 pm 399 LTEs - (Sorry, but the time to add LTEs has expired) Carl Pavano, Luke Hochevar, Satisfaction Hochevar (7-12) @ PAPAvano (13-12) The Tigers and White Sox will have been playing for an hour before this game starts. Its hard to imagine what it would be like in the Twins' position, where they have some idea of how Verlander and Danks are faring before their game even begins. I suppose [...] eschapp October 4, 2009, at 11:00 am 58 LTEs - (Sorry, but the time to add LTEs has expired) Anticipation, blameaj, goso, Holding Your Breath, John Danks, Justin Verlander, The Redemption of the White Sux Danks (13-10) @ Verlander (18-9) We all know who to blame! Go White Sox! eschapp September 27, 2009, at 11:00 am 3 LTEs - (Sorry, but the time to add LTEs has expired) Franciso Liriano, Zack Greinke
Momentum is today’s Starting Pitcher, right? Lets hope the Zack attack takes a game off. Probable Pitchers Twins: Francisco Liriano, LHP (5-12, 5.75) Its Sunday, its baseball time, and the season is winding down quickly. Frankie, [if you do indeed start this game] we need you to [...] eschapp September 13, 2009, at 12:00 pm 115 LTEs - (Sorry, but the time to add LTEs has expired) Brian Duensing, Gio Gonzalez The Twins have lost 7 of the last 10 games. On the other hand ESPN's AccuScore has the Twins as winning 66% of the projected games. I guess that makes them the favorites today, but does anyone actually feel that way? Pitchers: Twins - Brian Duensing, LHP (2-1, 3.94) 4.89 xFIP A's - [...] eschapp August 30, 2009, at 11:55 am 234 LTEs - (Sorry, but the time to add LTEs has expired) Kevin Millwood, Scott Baker Game time: 1:10 PM CDT Probable pitchers: A battle of the staff aces. Baker has a chance to step up and help the Twins win a very important series. No looking towards the bull pen Scott. .500 here we come again. Go [...] eschapp August 23, 2009, at 12:11 pm 187 LTEs - (Sorry, but the time to add LTEs has expired) Brian Bannister, Carl Pavano
The Twins are still fighting to get back to .500. Three games to go. One more against the Royals. Break out the brooms? Bannister's given up something like 7 runs in each of his last three starts. I'm not sure what to make of that, but it is what [...] eschapp August 16, 2009, at 12:07 pm 210 LTEs - (Sorry, but the time to add LTEs has expired) Aaron Laffey, Nick Blackburn I think we all know how important it is for the Twins to win today; 57.74 % important. Game time: 1:10 pm CDT
Pitchers Twins: Nick Blackburn (8-7) tRA+ 103 WAR 1.7 Indians: Aaron Laffey (6-3) tRA+ 114 WAR 1.0 Nick already got ruffed up once in the last 7 [...] Last night was fun. Lets do that again: Probable Pitchers: Twins - Scott Baker tRA+ 123; WAR 2.2; 106 SO Tigers - Jarrod Washburn tRA+ 94; WAR 2.5; 81 SO The numbers don't lie; Go Twins! eschapp August 2, 2009, at 12:00 pm 45 LTEs - (Sorry, but the time to add LTEs has expired) Glen Perkins, Jered Weaver I blacked out. What happened on Friday, and Saturday? Eh who the hell cares; I'm sure the addition of Cabbie solved the Twins problems so I needn't worry. Right? Game Time: 1:10 CDT Probable Pitchers: Twins Glen Perkins 6-6; 5.42 ERA; 4.93 xFIP; .303 BABIP; 1.3 WAR. Angels Jered Weaver 10-3; 3.71 ERA; 4.65 xFIP; [...] Twins fans can probably use 99 bottles of beer on their walls this week. Well actually by now I'm sure the supply has run out. Pitchers: Twins - Anthony Swarzak 4.16 FIP Angels - Ervin Santana 5.32 FIP Time for the Twins to save face. Lets get this one. Go Twins! Sunday Paper: E-6 stays [...] eschapp July 19, 2009, at 5:30 pm 173 LTEs - (Sorry, but the time to add LTEs has expired) Francisco Liriano, Texas Rangers, Tommy Hunter I should be on a flight from St. Louis to DC as this post is published, and so I’m writing this on Thursday so forgive me if there are any errors or changes before the game is actually played. Game Time: 7:05 CDT – Really? A Sunday night game? Probable Pitchers: Pitcher Twins - Francisco Liriano Rangers - Tommy Hunter League [...] Another series comes down to who will win on Sunday. Last night Mauer went hitless and Crede went boom while the team looked listless. The Twins need to rebound and use the momentum they built in the later half of the game last night. Falling behind by four or five runs in the early innings [...] eschapp July 5, 2009, at 12:05 pm 159 LTEs - (Sorry, but the time to add LTEs has expired) Nick Blackburn, Rick Porcello
Hope every one had a great Fourth of July. What a series so far. Makes it hard to pay attention to friends and family during a series like this. How good had Justin Morneau been lately? In the last week he's hit .440 with 4 home runs and 9 RBIs. The [...] |
 Wolves lose again by 22, Kevin Love down to 17 minutes. This is the worst possible situation for the Wolves. They are driving what is left of their fan base with a tremendous stretch of terrible basketball. Their best, or second-best, player has checked out and is getting buried on the bench. I doubt that Love is in their long term plans. How's that O.J. Mayo deal looking now? |
