    Twins pitching is pretty damn good and good pitching wins in the post-season as we saw last year. Our pitching is very shaky and I don’t have much faith it. Twins have also had our number this season. Combine that win Dusty having free reign and that’s a recipe for an upset. It’s been happening all year. Why expect it to all of a sudden change?

    Singleton hits below 0.200. I wonder if Dusty was looking at the fan stat OPS for Singleton and the batting average for Chas.

    They say this guy invented the high five. His entire reputation as a great manager is total fantasy. How that narrative took hold is astounding. This supposed great guy is a total prick when it comes to certain players, and it shows. He probably wanted Chas traded, team be damned.

    And I bet Hank Aaron thought he was a douchebag.

    I mean, I think he likes Singleton and Julks because he can relate to them. Kind of an affirmative action meets relatability meets gut feeling type of decision making. Hate to say it, but I think it's true. I do think race plays a factor. His hatred of McCormick is probably because he doesn't understand him. McCormick is the most chill, easy going person ever. How can anyone not get along with him -- it's stupid.

    Amigo, you aren't adding anything to the discussion when you go around insulting people and telling them their posts are weak. You do this repeatedly. Bring on-topic, interesting content or don't post.

    Yes, I'm a card-carrying licensed and bonded baseball-related moron detector.

    Just look at the post about Hank Aaron, above.

    I am missing something because I muted a good number of people. I don't regret that.

    "I bet Hank Aaron thought he was a douchebag" needs to be called out, given all the history behind that (that you didn't know), sorry dude.

    But...Geez... I'm pretty damn light mostly.

    I made the joke because of it. It sort of goes with the theme that everything about the guy is BS.

    If you thought that was a serious comment, you shouldn’t be calling anyone a moron. Haha

    Hah, gotcha. I was very annoyed after that game. Your meta-bbs humor escaped me, you pulled it off well, and sounded just like one of the usuals.
