    Standing is not the issue. It is the immediate movement and pressure on the knee with rapid starts and stops. Been there and can hear the MD's words.

    His knee is shot. He had it scoped last Sept. If it hasn't healed by now, it is not going to. He is probably running bone on bone but the Twins FO isn't going to let that cat out of the bag. Here's your DH.........Byron Buxton.

    Would you believe that I felt so good about MN once again that I cancelled our airline reservations to Arizona for Feb and Mar 2024? Nah, I kept 'em.

    Every other Friday, direct deposit. (sarc). In fairness, no one is more frustrated that he might well be.

    Like an August night more than June 1.

    Listening to Cleve radio, Tom Hamilton. Does such a good job of introducing listeners to the Twins, strengths/weaknesses, individual stories about Twins' players, stats. He has done his homework. Shades of Mel Allen, both voice inflection and style, for those of you who had that pleasure. https://www.mlb.com/guardians/team/broadcasters

    Angels pounded Lance Lynn and WSox. Lynn charged w/8 ERs in 4 inn. ERA ballooned to 6.55. Gave up 3 HRs, now pushing count to 15 HRs, record stuff for him with long season ahead. Didn't like Lynn when he bore the TC so will shed no tears this eve.

    Which one? There are 3 of them (sighs)...

    Buxton? Had the knee scoped in September. Twins have never said if it was medial or lateral. He is 8 mos out and the Twins are holding him back. I firmly believe the Twins are fibbing a bit and we will never see Buxton in CF again. After scoping, a second scope or knee replacement is all there is. He might get scoped again Sept/Oct? (I only play doctor on forums based on my own knee drama). Keep Lewis at 3rd. Don't screw around with someone who has had ACL fixed twice. Spend the dime and get a CF.

    Agree. I am old school. You made the mess. Be big enough to clean it up. Build some trust with you SPs, Baldelli. Good luck re-signing Gray next year. As outspoken as Gray has been, that attitude suggests to me that Gray will say to his agent, "Let's shop that Twins offer ..."

    Or other assorted parts of the human anatomy.

    I was at his last game in Cedar Rapids before being called up to FtM (then, Hi-A) in 2017. Delighted to see him play then even if he booted one. Kid hustled even when he got a drink of water. Anyone else remember the gritching and moaning when Twins selected him over Greene? I loved the selection then and couldn't be more pleased now. The young man is the real deal. Don't mean to sound trite but if I had a young son, I would say, "You emulate him and you will do alright."

    Same old scheisse.

    You think Lewis can handle pressure? Love it

    Game alert for those of us on radio (about a minute delay). <Grins>.

    Houston radio reminded listeners that Astros have the Twins to thank for Pressly.

    That's what Joe Maddon says in his book.

    Farmer more trusted at 2nd. Love the flexibility he provides to the club.

    Houston radio singing Lewis' determination to get back onto the field.'

    Walking distance. My wife says I should change my address to theirs.

    Memorial Day honors all those who died while wearing our uniform. Bless them all. Grandad was a mule skinner (took care of mules and horses carting artillery) in France during WWI, Dad chased Rommel during WWII, through North Africa and landed with Eisenhower in Sicily and then Italy, As well, the pilots, navigators, and EWOs in our squadron, shot down over Laos/Vietnam and all the Vietnam vets with whom I now mentor younger vets in a court alternative program. .

    Shop Kepler for interest.

    MLB audio (radio) just plays about 3 commercials interminably. Wasted money and irritable listener.
  25. Dave Borton
    I remember all the b*tching when the Twins passed on Greene and took Lewis. I loved it then and love it now.
