drivlikejehu Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Florimon could legitimately hit .150 this year. No joke.
stringer bell Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Blair Walsh with a late field goal to ice it for Minnesota.
GCTF Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 An adventure free ninth. I'll take it.
Joe A. Preusser Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Great game, fun game thread. Congrats on the series win! Take care everyone.
Brock Beauchamp Site Manager Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Trying to explain announcers to non baseball fans. Said that Vin Scully announcing the play by play of you having sex while you're having sex would actually improve your performance while having sex. Maybe I'm drunk but that sounds like the most accurate description of Vin Scully's voice.

LaBombo Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 He was lucky not to break his ankle there.That was my reaction as well.
DaveW Old-Timey Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 3-3. The bats have been impressive, I actually have a feeling that Kubel and Colabello both could stick this year for sure, Colabello, though early seems to be hitting a stride, if the dude mashes that much at AAA, there is no reason why he can't hit against non elit pitchers in the majors! The pitching....is a concern, but Nolasco will come around for sure. Can't ask for much more then going .500 on the road, especially when 2 of those 3 wins were against a playoff team! Nice to see Hicks get that SF as well in the ninth, was worried he was going to fall into a deadly slump ala last year. Instead he battled back with two strikes and did his job, very very big change over last year. Also can definitely get used to Mauer at 1st base, not only is he playing on a Sunday day game (a rarity in the past) but when he did...he was fresh and did well! I bet he hits .340 this year no doubt.
Brock Beauchamp Site Manager Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Ding Ding Ding!!! I'm almost certain you're wrong.
TheLeviathan Old-Timey Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Pretty nice series for the offense. 3-3 is about the best I expected coming into the home opener.
twinscowboysbulls Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Do we see a move today? DL? Cut Bart?
twinscowboysbulls Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Good chance we see outfield of Kubel hicks and cola with pinto DH tomorrow.
DaveW Old-Timey Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Do we see a move today? DL? Cut Bart? Too early to cut Bartlett IMO.
Circus Boy Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 And Swarzie is may be the only 1-0 pitcher in baseball with a 20-plus ERA.
70charger Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Can I just say that Colabello now leads the league in RBIs by a pretty wide margin. Let's bask in this while it lasts.
sampleSizeOfOne Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Wasn't that exciting? Gosh, i have yet to get this "watch the game" and seamlessly participate in the game thread down... I had a bad joke based on 1000 that i mulled over for far too long after readin' the thoughts, then i got caught up in other stuff... Let's see if i can remember it... Beer-maker has made 999 batches of beer, and is about to make another, when is buddy asks if he's sure he wants to do that. He responds... "sure! where's the harm in kilo-brew?" Anyway... Hurray for 1,001 wince! And 500! I like 500 too.

sampleSizeOfOne Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Thanks. Sorry it was so slow...
Squirrel Community Moderator Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 I'm lounging in a pool in St Maarten, drinking about a gallon of rum, and watching baseball. This doesn't suck. Also, need more rum. We all hate your right now, too. Me, especially, because I just sat through 7 innings at Wrigley with the wind off the lake.
Richie the Rally Goat Community Moderator Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 Too early to cut Bartlett IMO.Then what do you do with the guy? You certainly can't put him in a game...
Halsey Hall Verified Member Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 Pinch run for Hammer while he's on the bench.
