Cave looked like he was reaaaaaal nervous on that can o corn.

 

Wind has been swirling up there all weekend. Odor dropped a Sano pop-up yesterday and Rosario lost a ball up there last inning.

I met him outside of Muffuletta (restaurant) in St Paul. He played Scrooge at the Guthrie maybe 10 years ago.

I bought him a beer on Tauras 9 once. Riker and Data were trying to get him out of the bar before he got into trouble. He kept telling the waitress to "make it so" and asking her if she wanted to engage. His last words as they dragged him out the door, "Get Away Team!"

 

Left me alone with Deanna Troy... Trouble was, she knew what I had in mind.

 

PS. I met the real Rain Man once.

Listening to the radio guys it sounds like the wind is pretty nasty there tonight.

QB standing the pocket, NHL goalie, MLB catcher...sometimes not sure which is mkre brutal.

 

Definitely not NHL Goalie. Yes you get the occasional puck finding a soft spot but they are padded to the gills so it doesn't happen that often. 

 

QB's are protected by the NFL now so I gotta go with MLB Catcher.

That was really impressive by Duffey. Every pitch seemed to be where he wanted it

My opinion, one of the greatest successes Johnson has had this this season is the re-invention of Duffy. When the year is done, and even when 2020 comes around eventually, I think this will be proven true.

 

Guy has learned a slider on the fly this season, added velocity, and completely changed his approach.

You know what, I have to agree.

 

Except when Danielle Hunter gets a clean shot at a QB and burries him. At THAT MOMENT, said QB has earned every $. Lol

I'm curious how the bullpen strings together 4 more innings when Romo/Dyson have both pitched 3 of the last 4 nights.

With the wind blowing as it appears to be, I'm also not sure I'd want Harper out there either, especially with that slow stuff he throws.

Berrios needs a 10 day break.

Also, please sign Gerrit Cole this offseason

Just my hunch, nothing more, the FO will look at an under 30yo guy, probably on a losing team, that they think is about to explode.

Get Harper off the MLB squad now. This feel-good story has turned into a nightmare for Twins fans. Enough already. He's not good.
