Sometimes it's not what you do, it's what you don't do

Big Henk e-mailed me about last night's game. He correctly identified the real problem. It was the fact that J.C. Romero didn't start the twelfth inning. As Big Henk says, the reason he didn't start the twelfth is because he pitched like crap for a month straight. It was pretty hard to go to him when he had been completely ineffective for such a long stretch. I had a lot of thoughts about the game last night and this morning. If you get too analytical about it, you can think about the effect on the players, a life lesson, how much you are disappointed, etc., etc., etc. I think the best thing to do is realize that it's just a game and it's over. The Twins players need to forget about it. Tomorrow is another game. I memorialized my thoughts during the game last night, shown below. If you like Prime Numbers, Big Money, and a roller coaster of emotion, give it a read. Have a good day, everyone! Go Twins!
