The Twins kinda are the White Walkers today

 

"In that darkness the White Walkers came for the first time. They swept through cities and kingdoms, riding their dead horses, hunting with their packs of pale spiders big as hounds."

 

They actually sound like they could be a pretty formidable team. I know some people want more attitude - the Twins finding their inner-white walker might help create that.

Yeah, I have to wonder what being touched by a white walker could mean in the baseball world... Florimon suddenly being able to hit?

1 hole is rangers returning

2 holes are wildlings

3 holes are white walkers

 

"Jon Snow, you know nothing!" in general sounds like an appropriate quote... Not that i know anything either.

 

But really this post makes me recollect my Ogden Nash... What was it... Ode to a llama?

I have been calling for a new manager since last season, but in this case he can only pick from the available options. Of course, there is ample evidence he is at least partially responsible for the construction of the 25 man roster (3 catchers! I need 3 catchers!) So I'm less inclined to cut him complete slack here.

 

3 Catchers and 13 Pitchers, who a week ago all got a 3 day rest.....and are just coming off of 4 consecutive Quality Starts.....this is largely on Gardy.

I went to the Dr. today to get my head checked out. He said that my problem was watching the Twins. Apparently, looking at lineups like these the last few nights cause the same symptoms.

 

If you don't get better can I have your stuff?

And while I will get crucified for bringing it up...could Mauer perhaps play at less than 100 percent?

 

Why change up on what's worked so well.....

How do you have a negative OPS+ on May 7th? April 7th, sure. But May 7th?

 

I don't know but this has been a real golden opportunity to learn. Florimon is teaching us.

1. Escobar in LF

 

2. Florimon at SS

 

3. Suzuki/Pinto

 

4. Where's Oswaldo?

 

5. The Sky above you -- I read something today that made me pause for a second to ponder what I was reading. According to Military Experts... In Ten Years time... every single country on this planet will have armed drones. Sleep Tight everyone!!!

 

Good stuff! (tryin' to organize my thoughts -- like cleaning out the lint filter in the drier)

 

1. Only natural to me... Escobar is backing up Florimon after all?

 

2. I'm still rooting for Florimon. After all, we got the rubber band in our favor today.

 

5. Reminds me of a favorite friend's story. A pacifist vegetarian passing through a military industrial complex expo that reminds him of the future in terminator movies gets singled out by spokesman at a booth he passes. After enduring the spiel, the spokesman asked if my friend wanted to hear more about the fancy robot. My friend politely responds "No thanks, i helped make that robot." Needless to say, that friend has some really cool stories. -- But that wasn't my initial response... I was going to comment, if they were really military experts, they would have responded "the single country on this planet will have armed drones." And i woulda thought to myself, i gotta get me a new planet! Or at least a really nice decked out self sufficient bunker...

 

(Gar! i take too long tryin' to format stuff. Game's about to start!)

Gardy couldn't get creative and bat Escobar 2?

 

Baby steps... Batting Dozier first all season long was due to months of occupational therapy this offseason.

Good News... The demise of Cola may be pre mature... The bad News is Cola tagged out at 2nd... The Funny News... The way he was tagged out.
