    Smalley predicting Pelfrey and Boyer to be followed by JR Graham, so look for a black horse to appear. That's what the Book of Revelation says will happen when the third seal is broken.
  2. LaBombo
    Like, combined, or just... either?

    He should not bunt it in the fourth, he should not bunt it to the north, he should not bunt it in the air, he should not bunt it anywhere, I don't like bunting, Molitor, Stop it now, or out the door.

    Whoa, slow down, no need to go hyperbolic on the umpiring...
  5. LaBombo
    Aww, c'mon! He didn't even give up a run!
  6. LaBombo
    28 pitches for Jep. It's like a whole extra game's worth of excitement...

    Sometimes the apple desert can be salvaged by going heavy a la mode on it. If done just right it with just a hint of cinnamon, it does a fair impression of apple crisp/pie. Some frozen dinner purists consider that to be cheating, but you're going to have a tough time selling that to someone whose fruits and vegetables supplement to dinners that are light on them is the plums that make up the delightful Eastern European brandy, slivovitz.

    Does just fine on its own...http://cbsnews2.cbsistatic.com/hub/i/r/2013/07/10/cebc23e7-1c4d-11e3-9918-005056850598/resize/620x465/638522cdb3724dd4d1a27383a9d78835/006_QUAID_THEN.jpg

    Smalley's half-hearted explanation of how May's exile to the bullpen could make him a better starter next year drew the same response from me that Pat Morita's goofy sayings earned from Nicolas Cage in Honeymoon in Vegas: "That.... really does me no good at all, but thanks". http://i.ytimg.com/vi/-IFkrv2LdEQ/hqdefault.jpg

    Microwave instant potatoes are a great way to answer the question "What would it be like to be napping in Hawaii, snoring with mouth wide open, and simultaneously have a tourist's shave ice and a big glob of Kilauea lava land on my tongue?"

    GomeGome''s type of wacky hair-on-fire persona plays better in the early twenties than the late 20's, like the kind of $#!^ you used to get away with in college that totally doesn't fly a couple of years later. Or like Bill James said of Roberto Alomar at around his age 25 or so season. I'm paraphrasing, but it's close: 'People still dismiss Alomar's mental mistakes as a product of his youth, but they forget that he's already had five full seasons in the majors. By now the common sense aspects of baserunning, for instance, should be second nature to Alomar, and yet there he is, twice a week, wandering the basepaths like a squirrel on a highway.'

    Try to detect it. It's not too late. To snippet. Snippet good.
  13. LaBombo
    Not a bad defender either, at least on that double play off of Buxton's miniature science project diorama of the life cycle of a pop fly.
  14. LaBombo
    That's my season quota for bunts, bad or otherwise. Looks like it's gonna be a long September.
  15. LaBombo
    Run plunked in.
  16. LaBombo
    Blass-tastic inning for Kazmir...
  17. LaBombo
    Best prospect in baseball or buck 74 backup catcher. Decisions, decisions...
  18. LaBombo
    That's why I went with the "dozens" thing, because the stadium seats fifty bajillion and... Oh, crap. If you have to explain it.... My bad.
  19. LaBombo
    He might be remembered more because he propelled the Twins to a third World Series win, or hindered the growth of young Twins outfielders. But who didn't cry when Old Yeller got shot?
  20. LaBombo
    Hrbek: Saint Bernard Puckett: Corgi
  21. LaBombo
    Crunch time for Jep. Two lefties up first.
  22. LaBombo
    Make sure there's not a manhole directly below... http://i.ytimg.com/vi/8QxmK5sPdr0/maxresdefault.jpg
  23. LaBombo
    Why are there still two other Twins outfielders? To endanger Buxton's health?
  24. LaBombo
    And rescued a puppy from a burning building on the way.
  25. LaBombo
    Dorniers and Ju-88's too. No Stukas, though, Going after more high value targets.
