  1. Another Buxton K, served extra-RiSPy. That's the end of the line for me. And probably also of the major league meal money for a Twins reliever or two. http://www.hmhco.com/~/media/sites/home/at-home/consumer/oregon-trail/otstickersiconhmhcocom2.png?la=en "Your bullpen has died of dysentery."
  2. Bullpen still has to get 9 more outs. We might be down by !9 by the time it's over. Not that I'll be awake by then.
  3. There's one keeper in our bunch, at least...
  4. Wimmers' night end with a bang? More T.S. for the Hollow Men in the bullpen to endure.
  5. And coincidentally the exact reason why I switched to Republic sanitation service.
  6. Or just as bad, he may hold out for Qantas to max out his miles.
  7. Greyhound all the way. Too bad we don't still have DanSan to send down with him and keep him company... http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-A7wr3eS33Tg/VGkhdGNvr6I/AAAAAAAASAY/c7n6IhoXCNg/s1600/ptabus.gif
  8. When circumstances call for it, the Twins' Traveling Secretary can make arrangements for a direct flight to AAA from just about anywhere. http://14544-presscdn-0-64.pagely.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/human-cannonball-750x501.jpg
  9. "Exactly." http://cdn5.thr.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/list_landscape_960x541/2015/09/robert_loggia_in_big_-_h_2015.jpg
  10. And so a childhood friend of "Danny" Valencia cruelly betrays the secret of his parents' ill-advised insistence on choosing a name for their boy that rhymed with that of his twin brother 'Cupid'.
  11. West coast game thread fatigue. Even the New England Journal of Medicine says it's a thing.
  12. Top Gimmy's Boggsian streak of on base performance appears to be in danger.
  13. It's not all bad... http://wateringhole.jp/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/a233518b594fc8e52647701d498e79e4.jpg
  14. Just follow the smell of expired Greek cuisine and bad teeth.
  15. The Ghost of Campbell Scott's Career likes this
  16. I wanted to, but Corporal Dawson would have kicked my butt.
  17. Good choice. He was in the majors before I was born and still in the league when I finished school. The days of the 300+ inning, 15 CG, 300 K titans like Carlton and Ryan are almost impossible to fathom in the context of today's starters. 32 starts and 200 innings is a yeoman effort in the 21st century. Carlton had 30 complete games out of 41 starts during his extraterrestrial, 346 inning 1972 season. The 1.97 ERA wasn't too shabby either.
  18. So that's... fairly dramatic contrast. I've never been a big believer in the 'personal catcher' thing, but then again, I was never a pitcher. And if I were Ervin, I'd either want Castro as my catcher or a 1 hour documentary film explaining why not, co-produced by Spielberg and Lucas.
  19. It was almost exactly as if they had no idea that an interview with the souvenir holder was a possibility.
  20. Is that one of Dusty Baker's lesser-known contrarian baseball philosophies?
