[T.C.]

He can throw guys out?!?! YES!

[sampleSizeOfOne]

He can throw guys out?!?! YES!

Indeed.

 

When the trade was made, my thoughts were that i liked it on account of reading some note about being told to learn how to throw people out in AA, and during the next month or so, he figured it out. Which for me speaks to being a quick study.

 

So i'm looking forward to how he does.

[Brock Beauchamp]

May didn't exactly light the world on fire in that appearance.

[Jerr]

This has been a good game.

I stepped away for awhile and thought it might be over, nope!

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Revere has tied the game...

 

Well, to be clear, the runners on base when he got his hit, they scored, thus tying the game...

[jimmer]

Nolasco in preseason form

[Jerr]

8-7 Twins.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

8-7 Twins.

Doh. My bad.

 

I knew the score to be 8-6,

then read what i thought said:

 

Revere singles on soft line drive to left fielder.

 

Darin Mastroianni, Jose Lonaton score.

 

Glad i was wrong...

Nolasco in preseason form

Glad he's in some form at least.

 

Be hard to hold a ball otherwise.

[Jerr]

Well, now ya live with the "jinx" label.

Good to get that over in preseason        

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Well, now ya live with the "jinx" label.

Good to get that over in preseason

But i was still wrong...

 

I guess i was wrong about what i thought i was wrong about.

 

If someone has to be the jinx, it might as well be me.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

No extras? This ends with a tie, eh?

 

Good tune up.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Am looking forward to Brian's opening game game thread!

I too am anticiating it.

 

Only one man can thread this many games...

 

Sometimes you raise the bar...

Sometimes the bar, well he raises you.

 

Monday, right?

Sounds like there will be rain Monday, so unknown at this point.

Thanks. I shall stay tuned...

 

Has there ever been a double header opening day?

[Craig Arko]

Thanks. I shall stay tuned...

Has there ever been a double header opening day?

Good question. Usually the day after an opener is left open for just this situation, so if the Monday game is postponed they'd try to play it Tuesday

Man ... you'd fit in in Chicago on St. Pat's Day. Drunk by 8am.

Well, you can't drink all day if you don't start as soon as you get up.

[spinowner]

Tie, tie, chicken pot pie.
