    imo, another example of the idiocy of baseball players.  I love the game but damn, there are some idiots playing.

    <div>Jurickson Profar &nbsp;|&nbsp; LF &nbsp;|&nbsp; TEX</div><div><br></div><div><div><div>Profar went 0-for-2 with a run scored, a stolen base and was hit by a pitch three times in <br></div><div>Saturday's win over the Twins.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><div>Spin: </div>
    Profar was hit twice in his first three at-bats, then committed the cardinal 
    sin of stealing second base in the fourth inning while Texas was 
    leading, 9-2. That enraged the Twins dugout, which felt stealing a base 
    in that situation was unnecessary and violated one of baseball's 
    countless unwritten rules. When Profar came up in the seventh inning 
    against Addison Reed, the first two pitches buzzed inside before the 
    third one nailed him. "I thought they were intentionally excessive," 
    manager Jeff Banister told T.R. Sullivan of MLB.com. "They tried to dial
     him up three different times. There is a difference on what they are 
    focused on and what we are focused on." Banister defended the stolen 
    base, saying it happened in the fourth inning when there was a lot of 
    baseball still left to play.</div></div></div>


    So.....dude gets hit the first two times up.  His team is up 9-2 in the 4th when he gets on base and steals 2b.  So the idiot Twins hit him the next time up as retaliation.

    The Twins were the idiots behind the last example like this that I posted.  Are they the dumbest of the dumb? 

    I never disliked the Twins before.  New feeling and I am OK with it.  I can be the anti-Wobbie and determine that I root against a large number of teams vs rooting for a large number of teams.

    The Twins are awfully butt hurt for a bunch of grown men.

    I have no problem with him stealing 2B in a 9-2 game when its ONLY the 4th inning. Twins are wrong, IMO, in this case.

    I don't care if it's 19-2 in the 9th with 2 outs. Steal fucking second if you want.

    The best part if how they ignore the fact that the beaned him 2x before that....so dumb.  Makes me laugh, but I am not the poor bastard that was beaned 3x.

    Exactly. It's on the defense to get the outs, not the base runner or batter.

    Plus, if I'd gotten hit twice already, I'd steal as many bases as possible as revenge.

    Or punch the catcher...or slide cleats up into the 2B...or whatever.
    Twins (this season) are just a bunch of red asses.

    Did Reed get tossed for obviously throwing at Profar?

    Yep.  A great coach once said "It's not my job to stop my team from scoring."

    Nope, he finished the inning.

    BTW?  The closer (Kala) had to come in to get the save in the 9th.
    9-6 final.  Tying run was at the plate with 2 outs in the 9th.

    Twins = idiots.

    and yet there are pitchers sometimes starters who hit a batter in retaliation with no warning from the umpires beforehand who get thrown out.

    That's a shitty umpire job. Disgraceful.

    great game by the OSU P but he got a lot of help from blue. 2-2 rather than 3-1 is huge.

    What a great series.  Arkansas choked out.  But a tremendous pitching performance by the freshman.  Kid threw 120 some pitches and gave up two hits...against aluminum bats.  That's pretty damn impressive.  
  • I have not been a part of this thread, but I just want to gloat at my exceptional fortune in my dynasty fantasy baseball league: I picked up Soto on mere speculation a month and a half ago... and within two weeks... he's called up... and wow!

    Rock on, Juan. Rock on!
