[sampleSizeOfOne]

I'm looking forward to hearing another Jemaine Clement song.

 

I knew they'd done the new muppet movies, but i hadn't paid attention since...

[Don Walcott]

On most teams, Sano would be “Big Mike.”

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Another run or 2 here would be great

Depends...

 

Who scores 'em?

[Don Walcott]

I don’t know about the rest of you, but I like this Arraez kid. I think he might stick.

[DiscGolfer]

need a bomba to keep the streak going here

[Riverbrian]

 

Could Buxton?

He's supposed to be fast...

But i'm pretty sure if a Centerfielder could do that, we wouldn't 2nd basemen.

 

Buxton would have collided with the 2nd Base Bag full speed. 

[Mill1634]

BOOMSTICK BOMB!!!!!!!!

[Riverbrian]

CRUZ!!!

[Don Walcott]

Boom Stick!!!!

[MVP Nick Punto]

I'll take credit for that; I was just thinking "Cruz is due."

[Riverbrian]

Cruz was due.

 

It's been awhile. 

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Depends...

 

Who scores 'em?

Oh, Nelson Cruz.

 

I approve.

Is he Maurice's cousin? You know the running back from Ohio State?

[tvagle]

I'll take half of your credit as I just swooped in to the GT and BOOMstick!!!

[DiscGolfer]

[Don Walcott]

Just love seeing Sano crush balls through the infield.

[yarnivek1972]

At some point the Twins need to let May pitch and try to figure out if he is going to be a part of the mix down the stretch.

[ashbury]

CRUZ!!!

I just noticed, you're so stingy with the explanation points. Why not give four, one for each base? Here ya go, I'll borrow you one.

 

!

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Hmmmph.

 

Apparent lack of muzzle discipline bothers me...

 

But i am a fan of the movies...

[Riverbrian]

Good Idea. It's officially the new thing. 

[Blake]

 

I don’t know about the rest of you, but I like this Arraez kid. I think he might stick.

I'm still not sure. I think we should have a really long look at him, say starting second base, over the next 3 years. Then, we can make solid determination based on an extended data set.

I find this arrangement acceptable.

[tvagle]

Why? There is a mAy in DFA

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Is he Maurice's cousin? You know the running back from Ohio State?

I don't know.

 

Is he from New Zealand?

[tvagle]

 

Good Idea. It's officially the new thing. 

I thought this was officially a thing 3-4 games ago?

[Blake]

 

I don't know.

Is he from New Zealand?

Maurice:

 

[Riverbrian]

 

I find this arrangement acceptable.

 

If you didn't it would be except-able. 

[tvagle]

 

I don't know.

Is he from New Zealand?

Yes...if that's a suburban Ohio city

[Mill1634]

Fantastic start from Pineda. Exactly what we needed him to do, and he did it despite the defense not helping him, and the Sox stringing hits together early in the ball game. The bats have done enough to avoid using any of the backend arms, and should be able to get May worked back into some game action here

[DiscGolfer]

Oh, so that's why we like Buck in center, how many other CF have to dive to make that catch and how many don't even come close
