Sometimes lucky is a better outcome than good!

I didn't think it was luck. I thought it was skilled bat handling dealing with the ball based on how it was pitched.

Beautiful piece of hitting by Buxton. That pitch was over the lefty hitter's box, over a foot outside. The man's got some loooong arms!

With the way Perez and Pineda are pitching, I'm starting to wonder if the Twins offer a contracts to them both and Odorizzi is the odd man out?

Do we give Odorizzi a QO? What happens to Gibson? I'd rather have Odorizzi over Gibson!

Today's plate umpire is really in sync with the electronic strike zone. I've seen about 5 pitches right around the knees on the (RH) outside corner, and he's gotten every one correct whether it's just on the plate or just off.

My goodness, Gallo... I'm not sure if I've ever seen someone throw a ball that far from CF.

Impressive! And it only cost the Rangers just the one run.

Maybe Laudner can give it a rest, talking about how Pineda throws strikes.

I opted for the Rangers broadcast today. A couple innings of Laudner was enough for me.

Wasn't there a "wrestler" by that name back in the Vern Gagne era?

I forgot about Gibson.

 

No idea.

 

The Twins face some interesting decisions this off-season.

So I stopped by my dentist's office yesterday afternoon, and inquired about the cost to remove a couple troublesome wisdom teeth.

 

"It's $500 per tooth," said the receptionist.

 

"Wow," I said. "TOOOOOO much."

 

"Well," said the nice young lady behind the desk, "Let me get the doctor up here and see what we can do."

 

My actual dentist, Doc Lee, was soon up at the desk. 

 

"Chief!" he said. (I'm one of his favorite patients, y'know. He LOVES my jokes.) "What can I do for you?"

 

"Doc," I said, "What can we do about lowering the cost to get a couple wisdom teeth removed?" 

 

"Well," he said, "I guess we could cut out the pain reliever. Without novocaine, I could do it for $250 each."

 

"Too much. What else?"

 

"I guess I could let the intern do it. He's never removed teeth before, and I expect it'd be pretty painful. I would charge you $100 total."

 

"OK, that sounds more like it," I said. "I'll bring Mrs Chief around Monday. I'm tired of hearing her complain about those two wisdom teeth."
