You don't try to quantify it. You just enjoy your team winning and suddenly playing better.

It's kinda like drinking Busch Lite vs drinking Stella. You could have just spent a little more for better...but...it's cold and does the job.

In the words of StrongBad. "A one that is not cold is scarcely a one at all."

You are too easily satisfied

This is for all that “catching up in the standings” talk by Dick

[denarded]

That's the loudest booing I've heard at Target Field

[singlesoverwalks]

Colome's first pitch is always, always, always a ramrod straight low 90s fastball to the exact geometric center of the strike zone.

That depends on whether you've ever been Experienced...

There is no experience that prepares me for Colome and I am old with a lot of experiences

This regime has been quite consistent providing annual experiences with different players! All starting with the Matt Belilse Experience

Content with victory in life wherever I can find it.

I have a vague memory of my brother maybe not so accidentally breaking the arm off of my sister's knock-off Barbie, and I think her name was Midge.

Correct!

You'd think you'd be sure of your sister's name.

It has led to some really awkward moments during the holiday meals.

Umm...I don’t like that. I don’t like changing pitchers when there are runners on...

Old enough to remember Ron Davis?

[Vanimal46]

Colomé is a worse FA signing than Addison Reed.

We're at the point where it's okay to give credit where it's due... Colome is The Tickle Monster.

More than that I remember Ray Moore.

More awkward than poor Midge eating one handed?

[DocBauer]

Strange question, but has ANY batter ever used Billy Squier's song "The Stroke" as their warm-up song? If not, I'm willing to start a petition for a Twin, maybe Kirilloff, to adopt it.

No way you allow Colomé to see the top of the order. Not after the bottom of their order were peppering his pitches.

Legit question - How many bullpen arms would we need to add at the deadline to be able to compete in the postseason (if we get there)?

You'd prefer waiting g until Colome emptied the bases?

[Aggies7]

Taylor’s arm at the end of the season because we have no other competent pitchers
