Would be nice to get more than 1 run here.

[HitInAPinch]

Oh that Nunez

Grossman seems like he's been pretty good in the clutch this year.  AB up to .281

 

EDIT:  see what I mean

Rumors of Grossman's death are greatly exaggerated.

Of course!  Watched it when I was a kid.

 

 

Chief watched it to celebrate his AARP membership.

[Craig Arko]

Referring to Sano as a 'transplanted outfielder' is just wrong, Dick.

[HitInAPinch]

Wow, can't believe Rosario missed that last one...

[USAFChief]

 

Chief watched it to celebrate his AARP membership centennial.

1. Norm Green – Norm Green and some other guys bought the Atlanta Flames and then moved them to Calgary. The NHL later requested that he sell his shares in the Flames and rescue the North Stars and he rescued them by moving them to Dallas 3 years later. This propensity to pack up and leave has given him incredible leverage with United Van Lines. Minnesota nice is a real thing and it’s because we naturally don’t hate… it’s a rather small list of things that Minnesotans truly hate. Mosquitos, No Liquor on Sundays, Scraping Ice off your Car Windows and Norm Green is the entire list.

I believe I've told this here before but it bears repeating--

 

Norm Green walks into a bar with a toad sitting on his head. The bartender says, "What the heck is the deal with that?" and the toad says, "I don't know. It started out as a pimple on my butt and just kept growing."

"Candygram."

OK, someone has to play along. "Candygram, who?"

[GCTF]

Neil Allen is back! I missed the announcement.

 

/ edit - ah, and now I see there is a TD thread on it this afternoon... you gotta keep up

[Craig Arko]

Pitching coach, doing his job.

[HitInAPinch]

Nice comeback!!

[GCTF]

In fairness, it's pretty hard not to miss Cecil.

[USAFChief]

Suzuki-san!

Was going to post about this but I was busy catching up on the beginning of the thread.

[GCTF]

That's the sound of a contract extension.

This pitcher any relation to Chi Chi Rodrigweez?

And remember it's pronounced Kye-Kye.

[ashbury]

I always felt sorry for Mongo. I know it might be an unpopular opinion, considering how he would cold-cock horses just for fun, but I had a novel thought occur to me, that ultimately he was only a pawn in the game of life.

[Craig Arko]

And remember it's pronounced Kye-Kye.

Chi-squared.

[HitInAPinch]

Is Dick really making excuses for the Rangers?

[Craig Arko]

Dozier uses the whole field.

[Aggies7]

If the twins can hold this lead, they will have played .700 ball this year against the Indians and Rangers.
