The crap I watch because I don't want to flex my thumb.

 

Oh, i feel bad for watching stuff because my eyes were open.

My like button disappeared

It came back!

[Richie the Rally Goat]

Come on fan! You gotta catch that!

[sampleSizeOfOne]

TD Game Threads or cryptic crosswords, which ones are easier to solve?

 

/ gonna go eat dinner for a while, let the keyboard cool down...

 

Aw man! I didn't know we were tryin' to solve the game thread? If we solve it, do the twins win? Might that explain 3 losing seasons? We gotta up our game!

 

Yeah, one assumes cryptic crosswords have solutions, and i don't thing that's safe with game threads...

[ashbury]

Inanity is my mantra.

 

Nice attempt at a palindrome but Michael Palin would have executed it better.

[SydneyTwinsFan]

Sure would be nice to have a bench to go to in these close late games

[ashbury]

Do you know what's cool about Escobar in LF... When the ball is hit to his left... He runs to his left and when it's hit to his right... He runs to his right,

 

I've been hearing talk about this newfangled thing called a shift, is that what it is?

[Reider]

Come on fan! You gotta catch that!

Steve Bartman doesn't live in Cleveland.

4 across is esne.

[Gibby]

That's more familiar.

[ashbury]

Left Field where Escobar isn't sucking badly

 

You jinxed it.

[notoriousgod71]

You jinxed it.

 

That's on Gardy for putting him in a position to fail.

[Richie the Rally Goat]

Escobar was playing LF well to that point. Looks like he lost track of the wall

[Beezer07]

Oh you mean you can't just throw any old Joe Schmo into the outfield?

Good eye hold by Santana

[howeda7]

That was brutal. But does Kubel catch that? Cola certainly doesn't.

[Beezer07]

I can't believe that counted as a hit against Fien

[Reider]

Tough one Escobar. I agree with Morris again, lack of experience out there. Got scared when he shouldn't have. Hero one day, wear the goat horns the next. That's baseball ladies and gentlemen. Nobody bats .1000

 

On the other hand... This Santana guy... rips the seams off baseballs, runs like crazy and has a strong arm at SS. Not a bad skill set.

[ashbury]

Crud.

[Richie the Rally Goat]

Hit refresh and it may come back.

It disappears for all posts under 6 minutes old.

[Gibby]

Hit refresh and it may come back.

 

It disappears when the page advances. Refresh does bring it back.

[Twins Twerp]

Well theres always next year

[Richie the Rally Goat]

Crud.

Yup

[Gibby]

I will now eat fajitas and watch Monument Men.

[LaBombo]

You jinxed it.

Hold on, whatever the politically correct term for Cochise is, the jinx is mine. Mine! Mine, I tell you

[Richie the Rally Goat]

You jinxed it.

I'm sorry

[ashbury]

4 across is esne.

 

Is Esne Murphy still on teevee?

[Craig Arko]

Time for those roster moves. Hope they rethink sending Santana down.

[cmathewson]

Gardy with his players playing out of position (Escobar). It all goes back to Bartlett. They would not be short on Outfielders if they hadn't insisted on holding onto Bartlett at the end of spring training. Arg.
