    This isn't an argument... Im a Span fan... But I gotta ask... If the Twins are out of it in July... I gotta ask... Leader of what? A leader can also be Will Farrell running down the street in Old School.
  2. Riverbrian
    I don't yet... Actually I don't ever... But... If its a down year... The twins gotta move who they can move for the rebuilding.

    It was discovered that Harley Davidson and eye care specialists will spend money for those drop ins. This is money over and above the regular avails. Also broadcast rights are exclusive. Therefore you don't have to worry about being beat by a non cluttered broadcast. If the other teams are not as cluttered as the Twins... Give them time... They will be.

    Provus is OK... Gonna take some getting used to but he will be fine. To me Herb Carneal is the standard. Everyone will pale in comparison to Herb. That guy meant summer to me. I always thought that Gordon was terrible but he became a part of it and now I miss Gordon. If Provus stays for awhile he will be a part of my family. As for Gladden... He's doing great. Wouldn't trade him. I like Twins broadcasting Twins to Twins fans.

    I watch the games and if I can't watch the games... I'm thinking about what is going on in the game. Each individual player is a story in itself. Different skill sets and different results but each player paid dues in the minors at near slave wages to get here and each player faces competition at the highest level competing against them to produce failure on the field and talent challenging them from below to take their jobs. Tack on to that fans like us who are ready to say that Blackburn Sucks even though Blackburn has accomplished more just to get to the majors then anyone of the people saying Blackburn sucks could dream of accomplishing. For some of these guys... The baseball window is small and closing. I dont begrudge the salary and business side of baseball because of what they go thru in the minors... Baseball is flat out drama. Baseball is Reality TV at its best... Forget Survivor, Ice Road Truckers or the real housewives of Wherever. Baseball is reality TV. Unscripted and Beautiful. The Twins are my team and each player plays for me. I was sad to see Hughes DFA'd. Revere sent down to AAA broke my heart. I want this team to perform at the highest level. The only players that bother me are the players who I think don't try as hard as they can. Delmon Young was the only Twin I've given up on. I haven't given up on Velencia yet. This is my team. I win with them... I lose with them.

    Inge would be interesting. Can play 3b and C plus 2B. He would make more sense than Burroughs. I wouldn't expect too much hitting out of him but as a backup he can handle multiple positions. What I wouldnt like about Inge is this. The obvious perceptions that the Twins are Comerica Park dumpster divers. That gives me the willy's. Once you get all the banana peels and coffee grounds scraped off your clothing. Inge would be a decent fit. One last thing. I'd rather have Eldred. Big time Power. I think he should have had a decent sized MLB chance long ago.

    Keep this in mind... You gotta pull for Capps tho. If he has a decent year. He'll be good Trade Bait. Someone will be dying for a closer at the deadline.
  8. Riverbrian
    I agree... Then move Liriano into set up... LOOGY...
  9. Riverbrian
    Did I read on this site. I think Seth posted that Dozier can now be called up and it doesn't effect his Arb clock.
  10. Riverbrian
    lol... I still say bench him... Just for effect... Burroughs is sure had a bad inning. That makes it hard to send Velencia the message.
  11. Riverbrian
    With 1 out and Morneaus speed... its best to be safe... A Burroughs fly ball ties the game.
  12. Riverbrian
    LOL... Burroughs produced all 3 outs. I can hear Gardy... Good inning boys... Everyone... Good inning... Except you Burroughs.
  13. Riverbrian
    Didn't like seeing Parmelee go down like that. Saw him mouth he's fine to the trainer.
  14. Riverbrian
    Ok... The twins may not come back
  15. Riverbrian
    No way I could type that fast.... It would be something like this... Plouffe... That curve was hung... Must not have been looking for the deuce... The cat just walked past... Hey kitty... Fine walk right past me like you own the house. Nice to have Ben back in the majors... I hope he ropes another one just to show everybody on twins daily how hes a spark plug. Get off the coach Cat... Your gonna get fur all over. Plouffe struck out. Need a key hit... RISP... Just saw a stat posted on that. Plouffe and Beloit are both sounds produced when you drop a quarter in the toilet. Plouffe and Beloit... That's funny. What honey... No the cat is not on the coach.
  16. Riverbrian
    Yeah it's been hard to watch. Hopefully it evens out sooner rather than later. Just keep thinking the bad times will balance to some good times.
  17. Riverbrian
    It's fine... We are coming back
  18. Riverbrian
    Twins are coming back. I can feel it. Bucholz is grooving em.
  19. Riverbrian
    lol... That Canadian hash is rough stuff
  20. Riverbrian
    There it is... Scoring position
  21. Riverbrian
    Casilla needs to steal here.
  22. Riverbrian
    I didn't see that play but I just watched him double and score on a Casilla single.
  23. Riverbrian
    Consider this thought... If Matt Capps can close. Almost anyone can close.
  24. Riverbrian
    However... A rotation like that could lead to higher draft picks. The next Strausburg is ours... I can feel it.
  25. Riverbrian
    Very true... lol
