  1. LaMarre knows how to get on base!!!
  2. We will have Chief wear it. The costume could be easily produced. The Rain Cloud that Follows him will take some serious engineering work.
  3. The Twins scouting report is throw outside of the zone.
  4. Innovative ideas in the evolution of office space?
  5. It's a marathon... not a sprint. We are just fueling up for the incredible push that is going to knock our socks off.
  6. Yeah... I wasn't going to go there but it should be listed as thee most prime example of how not to handle a 1st round draft pick. Hand him a CF job before he is ready with no back up plan whatsoever. Do this 3 years in a row and then when he finally shows signs of improvement. They trade a 5 tool player for a back up catcher. And then he succeeds with the Yankees and we have people saying that he was terrible for the Twins. I'll never be convinced that the trade was understandable... not even slightly understandable.
  7. The Good News: I have a lot of Yankees on my Fantasy Team. The Bad News: I have a lot of Twins on my other Fantasy Team.
  8. Jeez... We need the Yanks to slow down a little so we can catch up. If they stop scoring for the next 28 Innings... We might do it.
  9. He's actually 1 of 7 catchers on the D-Backs 25 man roster.
  10. I see... You attend the Boston Marathon and see these people sprint around one time and now your an expert on product placement.
  11. It’s big, four-game series that kicks off tonight in the Bronx as the Twins and Yankees go to battle in a series that could really help the Rays. Everyone is kind of numb in Twins Territory right now after the weekend in Tampa. If you look at it correctly… it can make you kind of proud. Contributing to charity should make you feel good because there are people out there who really need our help. The Rays came into the weekend 5-13 and now they have hope at 8-13. The Twins can continue to help the needy Rays by knocking the Yankees down a peg. This is all important to AL East people. We are okay over in the AL Central. Always remember it’s a marathon and not a sprint.

The Twins can continue to help the needy Rays by knocking the Yankees down a peg. This is all important to AL East people. We are okay over in the AL Central. Always remember it’s a marathon and not a sprint. Here are some things to think about: 1. Top Non-Trump News Story (Or Stories): A Colorado woman is facing a $500 fine from U.S. Customs and Border Protection for saving a free apple she received as a snack from Delta Air Lines. Toward the end of her flight from Paris, airline attendants passed out apples in a plastic bag as a snack. She wasn’t hungry so she put the apple in her carry-on. According to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection website, “every fruit or vegetable must be declared to a CBP agriculture specialist or CBP officer and must be presented for inspection. This free apple caused a $500 fine and it seems that mercy isn’t going to be granted. A spokesman for Delta Air Lines said that giving away free apples, tipping off the CBP and then splitting the revenue has produced a handsome new revenue stream. 2. Our Twins: It’s a marathon… not a sprint. The baseball schedule is 162 games long and the Twins have played 16 games which is one-tenth of the season (close enough). Being one-tenth through the season makes it incredibly easy to calculate the season win and loss pacing. You just take the wins and losses and times each by 10. The Twins are 8-8 so that calculates to the Twins winning 102 games and losing 60. Don’t question it. We were just swept by the Rays. If you just go along with it, you will feel better. 3. The Yankees: Here they come. Let me list some of the players our pitching staff must face: Brett Gardner, Aaron Judge, Didi Gregorius, Giancarlo Stanton, Gary Sanchez and Aaron Hicks; plus Glayber Torres has arrived just in time to add to the pile. Many will look at the lineup and think that the Yankees have very few holes but the Yankees are not as strong as you think they are. For example, if all of those players got hurt at the same time, I don’t think Cashman prepared the team for that possibility and this has left the team vulnerable. 4. Today’s Joe M Conversation: Mauer: Do you know what this world needs? Montana: Valet parking at emergency rooms. Maddon: A transparent toaster so you can see the condition of the toast. McCarthy: Lucky Charms cereal that is just marshmallows. Morgan: Mirrors that also take pictures. Mauer: I was gonna say "love," but I like those ideas better. 5.

  13. And we'll see ya Tomorrow Night.
  14. His name is Milo Miller age 73. I think it's ok to go public on Twins Daily with his name since they are trying to tell every single person in North Dakota.
  15. I don't want to be insensitive because I really hope the guy is alright. But... Some guy in Mandan, North Dakota is missing. This is triggering a Civil Emergency Alert across North Dakota. Every time my cell phone buzzes with the announcement... My TV goes out which I assume is happening because Midco Cable is trying to broadcast the announcement but they haven't figured out how to do it seemlessly. So my TV just goes black for about a minute where the announcement should be... and it's because a Guy is missing in Mandan. Anyway... In a nutshell... I missed the Sano At-Bat.
  16. You got good cell service http://ayuda-excel.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/enjoy-inexpensive-and-profitable-sim-only-offers2051505311960.png
  17. You can read anything when it's spinning. C'mon.
  18. They were all purposely staying away from his slider.
  19. Good AB by Dozier I hope Sano was paying attention to that.
  20. Good AB by Garver I hope Sano was paying attention to that.
  21. Garver is gonna wait for a fastball.
  22. Molly isn't trying to win. If he was LaMarre would be in the lineup.
