  1. I have no idea how they would do it and I’m not advocating for it, but it would be very intersting to see a full major league season without the shift
  2. Joe playing it to score on that flyball double by Sano would’ve been pretty risky. A few feet shorter and that would’ve been caught
  3. But the sake of argument, if it was possible, would you say it’s more likely against the Astros or Yankees?
  4. By the way.... Bingo Card Generator: http://myfreebingocards.com/bingo-card-generator
  5. How did I forget this one!!!! Bingo: Any mention Twins Fantasy camp
  6. Someone please look up the Twins record when Rosario draws a walk. I'm not good enough at navigating Fangraphs and such.
  7. Bingo: Morris using the phrase "This might not be popular but...." Wishing someone a happy birthday
  8. Bingo: Bert saying that the pitcher needs to keep the ball down "Chases Ball 4" (usually Dick)
  9. I so badly want to look up Verlander’s average pitches per start.
  10. I'm not sure I've seen a single grouse about the cold weather in this thread.
  11. 9 are below the line. 2 more in northern CA Edited to Add: 7 of the 9 started at home 6 of the 9 hosted series 2 of the year.
  12. I understand the reason for the day off after the opener. It's because the clubs want to be able to charge a premium for those tickets. At an average of what?.... $8 more per ticket.... all of this nonsense if for a few extra hundred thousand bucks? Greedy. They obviously can't just not play home games in early/mid April, so my big beef is with the lack of foresight in the schedule. Never ever should a team that isn't coming back to the same stadium that year, play at a stadium in a cold weather (non-dome) climate in early/mid April. MLB wants to start earlier and earlier (March now)? Fine. But you can't just ignore the potential issues that might arise from that. It's possible that statistics would indicate that historically there are as many postponements in May than in April. But clearly April has the greatest chance of multi-day weather issues that have the chance of throwing a huge wrench in the schedule. Really, I'm just annoyed that I didn't hammer those tickets on Stubhub yesterday. They were going for WAAAAAAY cheap. And I could've at least doubled my money by reselling them for the May reschedule date
  13. My the look of things on stubhub, there are lots of fair weather fans staying home today.
  14. Seattle has never won the WS
  15. Disappointed by the lack of curveball GIFs
  16. Have any of the Twins said anything about this other than the 30 minutes after the game? I don’t think so. The “unwritten rules of baseball are stupid” crowd and the “we have 24 hours of sports talk to fill” crowd, seem to be the ones keeping this “controversy” alive
  17. I assume if the Twins FO could snap their fingers and move their AAA club to Nashville, they absolutely would.
  18. This is such a non story that the national media has grabbed on to. You know who thinks the bunt was fine? Like 99.9999% of people, but somehow because Dozier answered a question it’s turned into a bizarre debate where basically everyone agrees. I’m sure Dozier regrets ever having said anything. And likely has come around to the same view that 99.99% of us have
  19. Man, those 4-run homers sure do help more than those 1-run homers
  20. Was that Cleveland a handful of years back?
  21. It’s just so stupid for MLB to schedule games this way. Load up on intra-division games that are in non-dome, and colder area ballparks the first 2-3 weeks. It’s not that freaking hard. It’s just a computer program that spits out the schedule. Put those variables in.
  22. We can definitely (over?)react to Sano’s strikeouts.
  23. Buxton jumps Kepler. Interesting. Wonder why. Because of Garver the righty and not wanting three righties in a row?
  24. Duke’s xFIP is actually NEGATIVE 1.58
