    I think you leave Hicks down on his rehab for one more series. Like was said above, having a PLUS defensive OF of Rosario, Buxton, Hicks, would be a lot of fun, it just doesn't work as well without a DH (Torii). Once we get back to the AL, we'd have Hunter, Hicks, Buxton, Rosario, Mauer, and Vargas. 6 guys for 5 spots. That seems much more reasonable that 6 guys for 4 spots in an NL park.

    "Put him in the bullpen" is the pitching equivalent of "stick a fork in him" Well played again

    What's the opposite of being stretched out? Is Meyer being tightened down?
  4. Whammy
    Meyer only went 0.2 tonight. Maybe it was done so that he's available for the big club on Friday.

    I was thinking about this, but wasn't sure who would play the catcher position in Rochester.

    I use these forums all the time and this is the first time I have ever been in this particular forum. I have no idea, but I would guess this forum gets about 0.1% of the total forum traffic.

    I was hoping some others might, you know, join me. I have literally no idea how much revenue is generated by the ads on this site. You could tell me any number between $500 and $10000 and I wouldn't blink an eye.

    Someone was saying that Hicks is rehabbing in Rochester only for the weekend.

    1) interesting problem on your phone. I know the top and bottom banners that you are talking about but they stay locked in place for me. (iPhone 6) 2) I have a first edition "Thome is my Homey" (that I wore to the game on Saturday), that I bought from Parker way before Twins Daily existed. Not sure if that gets me those 10000 "free" ads or not.

    I don't want to be an annoyance. They clearly don't want to talk about it. I just can't figure out why that would be.

    Relegated to the "nobody ever goes there" forum Can we at least get a "I've thought about that kickstarter thing, but I just don't think it makes sense" It's never going to get a serious discussion in this forum.

    I'm assuming that if I blocked ads, that Twins Daily wouldn't get advertising revenue from me. I don't want that. I have no problem with the owners of Twins Daily getting what they can from advertising. I use the site. I enjoy the site. I want it to continue to be successful. But these new ads are freaking annoying.
  13. Whammy
    It's the "Pill Pockets" Ad, by the way. As I was reading d-mac's reply, I got teleported. It's a 30 second ad that's on continuous loop, that teleports you every time the ad starts over.
  14. Whammy
    I've grown accustomed to advertisements on web pages. Ads that take a while to load, only to move the content down right before you accidentally click on a completely different article or link. - Mildly annoying, but only because off unfortunate timing Websites that have a video associated with every story, that starts automatically (always with an ad, of course) - Annoying, but I can just pause the video and continue reading the webpage without interruption. But this latest type of Ad on Twins Daily has me highly annoyed It's a tiny little video on the right side of the screen that starts automatically (annoying, but I've gotten used to this type of thing). But here's the kicker..... It automatically resets me from wherever I happen to be on the webpage back to where the damn advertisement is. I was reading comment #18 and magically I'm teleported back to comment #3. SO ANNOYING!!!!!! I get the need for ads. I really do. But this is just plain infuriating. I brought this up a couple weeks ago, even before these magic teleporting ads... Is there some sort of kickstarter we could donate to to remove ads from Twins Daily? How much would need to be raised to remove them completely? I'm in for $20.

    Gunna have to figure out how to steal a base, son

    I haven't been paying 100% attention to this game, but from what I have seen this ump has been terrible.
  18. Whammy
    I'm struggling to come up with a player that Kepler profiles like. High average (moreso this year than in the past) 15-20 SB speed Not a ton of power, maybe 10-15 HR eventually, but good XBH potential Looks to me like he could play 1b, corner OF, or CF in a pinch. Is what we are projecting Eddie Rosario to be, a decent comp? Kubel before his knee exploded?

    2 for 2 this year with attending extra innings games, last one I had to leave early to get some kids to bed and Plouffe walked it off in 12 I believe
  20. Whammy
    Sorry.. 4.5 more years From the article: Sale is making $6 million this year, and will earn $9.15 million next season, and $12 million in 2018. Additionally – and here’s the real topper – his deal contains a $12.5 million team option for 2019, and a $13.5 million option for 2020.

    I think I'd trade Sano and Berrios. It would hurt like hell, but it would be awesome to have a legit ace.
  22. Whammy
    http://espn.go.com/blog/buster-olney/insider/post?id=10467 His contract situation is ridiculously good (3.5 more years of guarantees and team options at less than 15mil) Just for the sake of discussion, what would you trade for Chris Sale
  23. Whammy
    That was unexpected. He certainly has made the most of his two homers
