  1. Yeah but now she can't have a meal in a restaurant without people coming up to her and asking her for autographs, trying to take selfies with her, confusing her with Flo. wanting to show her the Toyota in the parking lot and the people like Chief who are begging her to just stop.
  2. Buxton just made a play that most people can't make.
  3. I'll bet a large amount of money that Jan was chosen from a focus group. 10 people in a room looked at a variety of actors and decided that she was the most "trust me" looking of the bunch. All that work just to attach her to really bad Ad copy.
  4. Mosquitoes, Taking off my shoes at airports, Listening to Poison and a bunch of other stuff before Astudillo.
  5. Odorizzi respect? Thinking that 1 run in the 2nd will be enough?
  6. I'm not sure but I don't think the Irwin's approve. Too Soon?
  7. Riverbrian's are rare but if you leave a plate of Buffalo Wings in the backyard... they will come around.
  8. I am The league actually spends significant time pondering it's existence.
  9. Mosquitoes drive me nuts. Astudillo not so much.
  10. That's not his fault... It's mine. I had no other options. I had to start Diaz on my fantasy team today and I'm a winner.
  11. Arraez hasn't played since Thursday. If he isn't going to play... he's the guy.
  12. Garver picking up right where he left off. Love It.
  13. Neither do I. This team doesn't need to subtract to add... It simply needs to add.
  14. Or any of the other 29 teams. Eventually, the draft pick does become a factor because the longer they go, the shorter the wait to simply keeping the draft pick becomes.
  15. Precisely? Why do we have to trade major league talent for major league talent when the overwhelming majority of trade deadline deals involve prospects for Major League Talent? Sano isn't a free agent until 2022 and he has an option remaining. Is this really a "Hard Decision" that must be made sometimes? I believe the front office should always give full consideration to anyone being traded. I primarily hope that they consider... current value, potential value, years of control, options remaining and contract obligations and then consider... the current value, potential value, years of control, options remaining and contract obligations of anyone they get back while assessing the timing of any consideration. Why not trade Polanco for starting pitching and get a special starting pitcher in return?
  16. Last Summer, Fall and during the off-season. I frequently posted a thought about Buxton and Sano and I got beat up each time I posted it. All I did was ask all the Twinsdaily readers to think of Buxton and Sano as members of the team instead of the saviors of the universe. There were a few who agreed with me but the majority did not. They were quick to tell me in no uncertain terms that the team was going nowhere without Buxton and Sano leading the way. I believe the front office even let a quote slip that they were not going "all in" until Buxton and Sano were ready. This team... Right here... Right Now... is what I was talking about as I took the punches. 25 players who can play and contribute with Buxton and Sano as simply members of that team. They don't have to lead but they do have to contribute. Now imagine this team... right here.. right now... and imagine Sano and Buxton delivering what they were promised to deliver. They haven't yet I understand but imagine if they do with this team around them. We have years of control to develop them.You don't trade it, you develop it and if it doesn't develop... we got 23 other players to help us survive it. Can we just let them be members of the team for the time being without being called garbage while we have the best record in baseball.
  17. That's the GM's call, Now, in years past, when other teams are adding talent for the stretch drive. They typically don't have to give up major league talent to acquire it.
  18. IF... BUT By the time the playoffs arrive... the team will know if he will be chewed up and spit out based upon the larger sample size to come. I'm not sure what is happening but we have the best record in baseball yet the opinion is Sano is "Garbage" and another guy is "praying" for the swift removal of Astudillo.
  19. "liability" "pray" "sentenced" I disagree 1,000,000% and in my opinion... it's a horrible waste of prayer.
  20. We may not buy the specific players that specific posters are specifically hoping for. But... Have no doubt. The team will be buying.
  21. The Rays have two starters to get past. 60% of all games. It is bullpen from start to finish. Watch tonight
  22. https://www.rosterresource.com/mlb-tampa-bay-rays/ 2 man Starting Rotation: Check 11 Man Bullpen: Check Lots of players on the disabled list: Check No big name position players: Check Everybody plays: Check 64 Million Dollar Payroll: Check This team has everything it needs.
