A cycle means a hitter has at least 4 hits, 3 of which are extra base hits, including a triple- which IS by MLB standards the toughest hit to get. Whats so stupid about that stat?? You still haven't answered me- if it were, noone would care, and if it were easy it would happen everyday. It doesn't.

Gomezs cycle (looking online, btw) was by standard the toughest to get- he hit the HR first, then the triple, double and ended with a single. Not many others have done it in that order.

Kubels was also a rare cycle- one of just a VERY SMALL handful that had his homer during the cycle that was a grand slam.

Lay off Cuddy, he's great in the clubhouse. Recently, he waved his magic wand and pulled another meaningless home run out of his hat. Gardy loved it!

every perfect game pitched since there was all-star games has been by an all-star pitcher

One was against us by a very overweight and admittedly drunk guy.

Just a few years earlier, the same guy pitched for the Blue Jays against us in the ALDS and the Twins knocked the tar out of him.

Scoring system should be changed, if it is a misplay, and I do agree Dyes falling down was a misplay, then it should be a double with runner taking third on an error. But I think MLB tries to cut down on the errors on the books.

Cuddyers hit on sunday- blatant error. Abreau flat out missed that ball. Still can't believe he got a hit from that.

IMO, I don't think that was an error or a misplay by Dye. He ran hard and tried to make a great catch. On a line drive hit, you don't have much time to sit there and think about what your going to do. It's easy to say after the fact that he didn't catch the ball, that he misplayed it. He could have stopped running to catch the ball and played it off the wall, which he should have, but you don't know that until after the fact. Line drives are hard to read, no doubt.

His misplay in that case wasn't him not catching it, it was him falling down. Span got third because of that, had he stayed on his feet, I think Span woulda been held to a double

I don't know. If I remember right, he fell down in an attempt to catch the ball. So, if someone accidentally falls down or slips in an attempt to catch a line drive, it's a misplay? All I know is if I'm a coach, I want my players to play aggressively. Not stupid aggressive, but definitely aggressive.

There is NO SUCH THING as a meaningless homerun. It puts a run (or more)on the board with one swing, bothers the pitcher, and usually swings momentum to that team. Now if a pitcher is use to giving up a lot of them (like Blyleven, or Ron Davis), it doesn't bother them quite so much shocked

Great move by Gardy to put Cuddy after Morneau, against lefties. Kubel isn't near as dangerous against lefties.

Just pulled up some stats:

Cuddy: 92 hr career

1 walk-off

20 tying

27 go-ahead

Morneau: 159 hr career

4 walk-off

8 tying

60 go-ahead

Obviously NOT meaningless............

      Problems with Yetti

      got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
