Minnesota Twins at Kansas City Royals, Sep 25, 2009 8:10 PM EDT
Your pitching matchup is Carl Pavano against Robinson Tejeda. Pavano will make his sixth start of the season against KC tonight. Having six out of your thirty one starts against the Royals, known as pulling a Cliff Lee, must be fun.

I did really well this year leaving a roster spot open and just plugging in guys from teams the Royals were playing. I didn’t like doing it but when you know the team you follow is no good then using their opponents is a good strategy.

okay, he's a year removed from being one of the better hitters on our team, and now he sucks?
if he’s not one thing, it’s obviously a bunter, and when you consider yuniesky betancourt and josh anderson are up next, why the hell would you ever bunt? and give pavano a free out, who’s already given up 6 hits in 3 innings? it just makes zero sense

Its not like Betancourt had to dive for the ball. I was essentially hit right to him. He just didn’t field it. At least the nephew is here and I had a classic example to show him how not making a basic play can blow up in your face.

so has anybody been imnpressed by carlos rosa so far?
i gotta say, for a guy that was ranked as a top prospect… i have really seen nothing from him. he throws hard, can’t really control it, his slider seems pretty flat, the changeup isn’t really a swing and a miss pitch… not really sure what there is to get excited about with him.
