Yeah, I have similar memories.

You'd think they could at least have given her a window seat.

Baseball is a game of centimeters.

BTW, C4 is guaranteed another plate appearance.

E-2, IYAM.

Let's do it this inning! (Sorry about the mis-post above.)

Hey, we still have 2 more innings!

Dang. Couldn't he have hit it just 2 feet farther?

Senor Clutch!

I'd like that. But a straight number is better than a round one.
-
Um, just curious, that's all.

OK boys, 1&2, 0 outs, get the line moving.
-
Since when!?
-
Hmmm. I thought the procedure was to make a challenge by having the pitcher come to a set and throw to 2.
-
OK, Joe Ryan, runner on 3 with 0 out. Let's see what you've got.

Perkins just said about calling pitches: "All that matters is the opinion of the umpire." We need electronic pitch calling, because then all that will matter is whether the pitch went through the strike zone. As god intended.

4 of 10, but who's counting?

What!? An interloper!?

Maybe he is experiencing complications from his recent tattoo.

Be careful about using 2017 as a benchmark for how to approach roster management. That year was an extreme outlier for the AL. There were two outstanding teams, two good teams, two bad teams, and nine mediocre teams. The Twins just happened to be the one of the nine mediocre ones that surfaced for the postseason berth, more by process of elimination than anything. That said, this year is shaping up in a similar way. There are two outstanding teams, four or five teams out of the running, with the remaining eight or nine teams in the fair-to-mediocre range competing for four postseason berths. The possibilities are wide open.

Is there value in winning a playoff round?
Nine of twelve replied to jorgenswest's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk
Of course there is value in winning, whether a game or a series or a division or whatever. But the value that is generated comes at a cost. It's analogous to comparing gross income and net income. So the more precise question is this: what would be the net value of winning a playoff round this season? -
Cool. I don't do Twitter or any other instant internet communication, but I did do a Google search with several different search parameters and still found no corroboration anywhere other than Ted's tweet about agreeing to terms.

The bad news is that the Twins will not be trading for three impact pitchers. The price would be too high. The good news is that nobody else will be trading for three impact pitchers. The price would be too high.

Inside-the-park grand slam? You don’t see those everyday
Nine of twelve replied to cHawk's topic in Other Baseball
I'll disagree. By the time he saw where the ball was he also saw that the left fielder was going to get to the ball before he could have. There was nothing more he could do at that point.
