  1. They wimped out back then. They needed to either eliminate one men's sport or add one women's sport to be in compliance with Title IX. Rather than do the right thing they eliminated baseball. SAD!
  2. Berrios really needs to bear down here.
  3. Things are Craaaaaaaaaaaaazy at the Jake. Now 8-8 going into the 10th.
  4. Ranked 11th! No other true northern school in the top 25. John Anderson is one of the best coaches in D-I, period.
  5. Rosario! Gets on base hitting a bad pitch. Classic--bad ball hitters swing at a pitch they think they can hit no matter whether it's in the strike zone or not. And then scores from first on a double. Another example of why he's my favorite player on this roster.
  6. Wonder when Denard will get in a game. In this morning's Strib he didn't sound overjoyed to leave T/St. P. I'm sure he appreciates the increased likelihood of postseason baseball but I can see how he was looking forward to spending the rest of his career at home. Edit: I see he has not been placed on Seattle's 25-man yet.
  7. Insult to injury. Not only is it not the Twins but it's the franchise which must not be named.
  8. For a 21 year old catcher! No matter what this young man winds up doing this is the best deal Falvine have ever made. To get anything more than a used puck bag for Hughes is a coup.
  9. Memo to Dick Bremer: don't wear that suit jacket in front of the camera any more.
  10. This reminds me of an item from a David Letterman top ten list--top ten lines from one of the Star Trek movies: "I'm a doctor, Jim, not a very good actor!"
  11. The perspective of most people posting to this thread is what one would expect from Twins fans: Seattle scored only two runs because our pitchers were very good, not because their batters were very bad. We scored only one run because our batters were very bad, not because their pitchers were very good. Seems to me it was a low scoring game because all the pitching was good. It's thought by most people knowledgeable about baseball that good pitching will keep good batting down. This game was actually what to expect from two good teams. It was disappointing to lose the game but not shameful in any way.
  12. Going into spring training Adrianza, Escobar, Garver and Grossman were expected to be the bench, and that's with a 12-man pitching staff. Subtracting Polanco, Castro and Mauer leave us with what we have. Would Falvine have been able to find better than the current bench during the offseason? Maybe, but I doubt it when 29 other teams were shopping for the same types of players.
  13. 17 of our last 23 games are against the Royals, the White Sox, and the Tigers. If we can stay even with Cleveland until then we should be able to pull away down the stretch.
  14. No. For the umpteenth time, first base.
  15. I wonder how many millions of dollars the actress who plays Toyota Jan has made during her time as spokesperson. Talk about a good gig.
  16. Do you really think you could do better than that?
