Cap'n Piranha Verified Member Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 I hope he's a legit #2 while with the Twins ... and a legit #4 wherever else he lands. Compromise is always a good thing. Just stopping by ... brief lunch break. Have you fixed a drink yet?
Oldgoat_MN Verified Member Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 "Watching" at work through gameday. How are Buxton's at-bats looking today? How hard hit was his last out?Not good.He did not barrel the ball well last at bat, though he pushed it out to the OF.
Guest Guests Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 The White Sox are really embracing rebuilding mode. I'm glad to see that they're going to give us some free wins.Based on the White Sox' apparent plan to ride out the season and trade anyone with value, and how awful the Royals appear to be, it may be hard for the Twins to finish any lower than third in the Central.

I could still see them finishing at .500.

woolywoolhouse Verified Member Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 Castro has reached base in six of his first seven Twins' at-bats. That's... that's pretty good for a defense-first catcher.
akmanak Verified Member Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 The amount of walks we have taken so far this year is very encouraging. Think it is related to the new hitting coach or just terrible pitching?
hybridbear Verified Member Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 I'm liking Castro through 2 games so far! 3 BB today is great!
Blake Verified Member Posted April 5, 2017 Author Posted April 5, 2017 The amount of walks we have taken so far this year is very encouraging. Think it is related to the new hitting coach or just terrible pitching?I'm not tired of not hearing Bruno in the background hollering encouragement.
Oldgoat_MN Verified Member Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 The amount of walks we have taken so far this year is very encouraging. Think it is related to the new hitting coach or just terrible pitching?I'd give my opinion, but I'm trying to be positive.
ashbury Verified Member Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 UNBEATABLE Our second candidate for jinx-er of the game.
Blake Verified Member Posted April 5, 2017 Author Posted April 5, 2017 I'd give my opinion, but I'm trying to be positive.A negative + a negative = positive. Remember, math thread.
ashbury Verified Member Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 A negative + a negative = positive. Remember, math thread.Yes, because that is how addition works.
Cap'n Piranha Verified Member Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 A negative + a negative = positive. Remember, math thread. That's a negative multiplied by a negative. A negative + a negative is still a negative.
Blake Verified Member Posted April 5, 2017 Author Posted April 5, 2017 Yes, because that is how addition works.I took Bert's CA math class....
spinowner Provisional Member Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 I still have to get used to a pitcher wearing #9. Even John Lennon might have trouble with #9, #9, #9...
Cap'n Piranha Verified Member Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 I still have to get used to a pitcher wearing #9. Even JohnLennon might have trouble with #9, #9, #9... I didn't realize John Lennon was that good at baseball.

Cap'n Piranha Verified Member Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 Snow cone catch by the fan behind us What flavor was it?
ashbury Verified Member Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 I didn't realize John Lennon was that good at baseball.He was good enough to play professionally, not good enough to reach the majors. http://www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.fcgi?id=lennon001joh
Squirrel Community Moderator Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 Have you fixed a drink yet?hic What?
ashbury Verified Member Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 Nice swing-and-miss strikeout on the Uncle Charlie by Belisle. Not sure every batter will bite on that, but it was effective in this instance.
Mike Sixel Old-Timey Member Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 Why do so many come opening day, and not come back? errr. here, not the games.

I wonder if he had to quit cold turkey. Gimme some truth.
USAFChief Twins Daily Contributor Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 Why do so many come opening day, and not come back? errr. here, not the games. Same reason.
