Nice selfie.

Quite frankly, I'm downright impressed with that selfie given the circumstances.

 

We're talking about a guy who's used to 68 degree temps in February. Instead, he's braving the elements in Wabasha, MN... -10 and a wind chill of -35. For what? Going ice fishing?

You guys mind if I put the game on pause?

OK, no spoilers, anybody.

Grossman HR - MIN up 1-0

Sano flyout to LF.

This roster ripple effect... You need to give one guy playing time and the entire infield changes. I get why the decisions are made but consistency is so key to baseball. How many years has it been since we've had a starting 9 that goes out there the majority of the time?... Subbing 1 guy has fundamentally changed our roster and lineup for this game. I really think our players could benefit from more consistent playing time, especially now that we have some semblance of quality position starters

Gonzalez singles.

Tucker reaches 1st on Plouffe's error, Gonzalez to 2nd.

Marisnick strikes out swinging.

Castro strikes out swinging.

 

In this universe, Santana is a strikeout monster.

I see on gameday that Plouffe hit into a dp.  Listening to the static, I couldn't tell, but should have known.

Um, Plouffe ROE...

I'm just going to whistle on my way by this because I've stopped too many times. 

 

I'll just say that I honestly do respect everybody's opinion and right to those opinions.  :)
