  1. Is it just me, or are the Twins seemingly barely clinging to a two-run lead in the 9th despite having a good bullpen? Ok, me. But still...
  2. Fryer flirting with being picked off. Smalley vexed. So that's bad.
  3. The double play was great, but Dozier not getting hurt was even better.
  4. Since the DeLorean is in reverse... Hello, Doily! http://d3rm69wky8vagu.cloudfront.net/article-photos/large/2.156689.jpg
  5. All good. Just leave a cell # in case Perk implodes. Deal?
  6. What was the original, more dangerous punchline, and why are you better off for not having revealed it? http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_liugmu0DW71qcrzkko1_500.gif
  7. BBC correspondent D. Bowie makes a persuasive argument that ch ch ch changes are on the way, so don't recycle the velvet just yet. Also, are the Twins shutting out the SubMariners through seven? Cool!
  8. And watch out for the gentle people. Super nice, but no trade value forthcoming for... well, whomever.
  9. Shoo fly pie, and apple pan dowdie...
  10. Like button doesn't quite cut it...
  11. Is there more definitive proof that social media is inherently flawed?
  12. Twins stock down more than a dollar and a half a share.
  13. Probably only if he grabs and misses at a hog dog outside the zone...
  14. That's just me being a troublemaker. References available upon request.
  15. From my vantage point, you're in the clear, Rock of Gibbraltar.
  16. The idea of contracting the Twins once upset me...
  17. http://www.donttellmetheending.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/shortcircuit.jpg As long as you're still alive...
  18. Now I can go to sleep knowing that the Twins are on the right path...
  19. Prayers for your wrong choice... http://angryblackladychronicles.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/BluesBrothers_026PyxurzABL.jpg ... buster!
  20. And don't forget the killer strand rate...
  21. Can't buy into that. Maybe it's where I'm Frum. But cargo pants, well, that's still debatable. Barely.
  22. Agreed to an extent, and many of my posts have been about caution with rushing guys like Hicks to the majors. But my (admittedly way, way off-topic by now) response was meant to address a binary post that assigned player age consideration a value of zero. And in keeping with the off-topic-ness, it was also about how the Twins contrast with the Cubs and their ability to lose at an acceptable rate without a third of the roster being essentially animated Fatheads. Put another way, if I had to wager that the eight (that's the over-30 differential) worst players on the Cubs' roster would figure more positively in their future, including both performance and trade value, compared to the Twins' eight oldest... well, it was time to clean behind the couch cushions anyway.
  23. It would be equally exasperating to have your siding with management painted as knee-jerk defense of the organization, would it not? The argument that responsibility for whether injuries are reported or not has little or nothing to do with team policy, corporate culture, and/or management/staff handling of player relations strikes me as extraordinarily improbable. Eventually, this issue will sort itself out, without regard for many of the variables that are part of the equation: Michael Corleohlad: Our baseball team loses. A lot. Maybe we can do better. Moe St. Greeter: You think I'm skimming off the top of player health? Corleohlad: You're unlucky...
  24. That's true if your interest in the Twins' future is limited to next week or next month, as opposed to next year and beyond. Otherwise, it is not true.
