  1. Out of 26 games played this month, his average has gone up in 21 of them. Which might not sound all that impressive until you actually think about the numbers behind that.
  2. Cubans!!!!!
  3. Can he play short? Can he bunt?
  4. That's how you lose ballgames, folks.
  5. We are the most pathetic bunting team I have ever seen.
  6. ANOTHER failed sac bunt. We are 0-1000 this season
  7. I'm just going to continue pretending that Bellinger was never in the Dozier conversation. It hurts too much to believe otherwise.
  8. Leadoff homerun for Granite today
  9. We got our good lineup back: Twins Brian Dozier, 2B Joe Mauer, 1B Miguel Sano, DH Max Kepler, RF Eduardo Escobar, 3B Eddie Rosario, LF Jorge Polanco, SS Jason Castro, C Byron Buxton, CF Indians Francisco Lindor, SS Jason Kipnis, 2B Jose Ramirez, 3B Edwin Encarnacion, DH Carlos Santana, 1B Lonnie Chisenhall, RF Austin Jackson, LF Bradley Zimmer, CF Yan Gomes, C Josh Tomlin, RHP
  10. I did some research on this a couple years back. I think, on average it's actually colder in Cleveland in early April than in Minneapolis.
  11. https://mobile.united.com/FlightStatus/FlightDetails?carrierCode=UA&flightNumber=1753&flightDate=6%2F25%2F2017&origin=EWR&destination=CLE Maybe?
  12. Next visit from the catcher, when they are doing that cover-their-mouth-with-their-gloves thing, I'm going to imagine Gibby saying "Castro, I saw the sign"
  13. Disagree. Other teams have really laced the ball off of Gibson. They are both in that sentence.
  14. Home plate ump just called that HR foul.
  15. I know we all have fun with the Pohlads/Money jokes, but were talking about $1M here. We aren't talking about signing a $100M free agent. If we can't pony up an extra million for a draft we are in the drivers seat of, then I don't know what the point of any of this is.
  16. I'm going to start spelling it "Nic" He doesn't deserve a K in his name
  17. That wasn't exactly my point. There were plenty of top 100 guys left on the board in Round 11. We had overnight to negotiate with them and I'm sure we had a pretty good idea of where we were at in terms of our cap. Just like with the Enlow pick. I expected a high school flyer at pick 11-1. See what you can save with some under slot guys, use the 700k (5%) extra and make an offer. Worst case, you lose your 11th round pick. Best case you get another top 100 guy. I'm not lamenting our draft. Still lots of signings to take place. We'll see where we land. My point was, if we don't bump up against $14.8M, we did something wrong.
  18. Falvey should've been planning on paying 15.39M for this draft class from the beginning. 14.86M in signings and 530k in penalties. Not doing so, with as large of a draft pool as we were given, is essentially like giving up a top 100 draft pick. It's only money. Money (at this scale, especially) should not be a deterrent.
  19. It's a little early for a Boundary Waters trip. Those lakes would be chilly!
