  1. ... our scouts like how the air sounds coming off his bat against Sale.
  2. DRS is a rolling one year window, while UZR is supposed to use multiple years of data. Or something like that. Either way it's pretty clear that Buxton is better.
  3. There's swinging at a pitch out of the strike zone, and then there's swinging at a pitch out of your time zone. I think Rosario made up his mind to offer at that last Sale pitch during the flight to Boston last night.
  4. #3Blair'sMom does not like this post. Or brian.
  5. And if you want to back up your "advanced age" claim, be prepared to provide convincing details of your most memorable mastodon hunt.
  6. Glad the Twins aren't playing the Sox under a full moon this series so Pedroia can't fully transform... http://usatftw.files.wordpress.com/2013/10/usp-mlb_-boston-red-sox-at-tampa-bay-rays_006.jpg?w=1024&h=768 http://images.idividi.com.mk/images/vrkolak.jpg Was any player more disappointed when the Commissioner canceled plans for a 2017 MLB game in London?
  7. Despite making fun of his name and the Twins bullpen wheel of fortune in general, I like the signing. I think he may now finally be fully recovered from the trauma of the month he spent on my fantasy team in 2014.
  8. The important thing is that you found out before he's sent back down. Dillon Gee is gonna come up and then disappear in the span of a week, and then this conversation will happen: Fan 1: "The last long reliever, that guy from the Mets or something, who they already DFA'd... not a very exciting pickup, was he?" Fan 2: "Gee." Fan 1: " Exactly".
  9. "What are you saying? That the-phone-is-a-fake-Twins-fan?" http://cdn.playbuzz.com/cdn/c301a1ee-e545-4ded-8469-79e5f7677e94/a6532285-6e53-4b84-8f32-7ce7f63c03f6.jpg
  10. It's ok, we're Twins fans. We're already dirty.
  11. Yasiel Puig hit 110 mph in Spring Training 2013. http://assets.nydailynews.com/polopoly_fs/1.1569990.1389212149!/img/httpImage/image.jpg_gen/derivatives/article_750/puig-arrest.jpg
  12. If he changes his mind, Sano's the first in line.... http://www.jovem-guarda.com/ingles/abba/abba8.jpg
  13. Not sure, but when you sort the Twins pitchers by it on Fangraphs, I'm sure Gee will be on the second page of names by the All Star break.
  14. Sano almost caught laughing at second after Garcia successfully dodged his single to right.
  15. And I, for one, applaud the Twins' brave paradigm shift from never-wills to has-beens. The default Fangraphs team stat page displays up to 30 pitchers at a time. When Gee debuts, it will leave 4 open spots before the names wrap around to a second page.
  16. Tying run on third and go-ahead run on base... again. Just another ho-hum hold situation for the rock-solid Twins bullpen.
  17. Should be a huge hit with Chicago fans.
  18. 2017 Twins pitching summed up in three words...
  19. http://gifon007.eu/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Sumo-Ring-Fail-Funny-Gifs-Gif-Suits.gif
  20. Agreed. A nail-biter ninth would make up for the slow pace so far.
  21. Nice job by the crafty veteran Belisle, lulling the hitter to sleep with stories from his service as a boatswain's mate on a US Navy destroyer during the Cuban missile crisis.
  22. Just wait until Thursday, when T u r l e y p i t c h e s. "Your front office chose...poorly". http://movie-dude.co.uk/Robert%20Eddison%20%20Indiana%20Jones%20and%20the%20Last%20Crusade%20(1989).jpg
  23. The Twins have an abundance of 89 MPH pitchers who can effortlessly locate their fastball to any section of the outfield seats.
