  1. I'll try anything once And ChiTown does have Bake Skill.
  2. http://images.edge-generalmills.com/e2aedf9d-cf8e-4b39-8d2d-8873f6ebdc47.jpg They kind of look like the ones Kathy Bates made in the Waterboy
  3. Now that I'm thinking about it. I always have Mayonaise on Cinco De Mayo. Is it possible that I've been doing it wrong?
  4. It's alright... We didn't want the Astros drafting before us anyway.
  5. You did and normally I might blame you for what's happening but I think this one will be on Hocking.
  6. Maybe tomorrow... Tonight I felt differently.
  7. Yeah... That's what I thought as well. I went Uff Da instead but to each his one. The ball didn't really fly off of Altuve's bat but Sano kept backing up. I do believe that Sano could have ran through that wall if he wanted to.
  8. Balls just kinda fall out of Minute Maid.
  9. Enthusiasm getting the better of you is a good thing. You don't get invited to many parties but overall it's a good thing.
  10. Craig Arko You are probably my favorite geek. Either you or Ash.
  11. Mr. Hocking... I have to ask you to please refrain from using "Fire or Fiery" or any similar words until the Houston Starting Pitcher is removed from the game. Thank You... Now you may continue on with your incredible style.
  12. Park currently has a home run every 10.85 AB's.
  13. Comrade... you can do the on pace stuff But... Just to be clear... The Home Runs Per AB are all mine
  14. ChiTown: And this isn't my nose... it's a false one (lifts up carrot)
  15. I couldn't disagree with you more. If a Manager believed that a team has zero chance on May 4. Then they should be fired immediately. The Texas Rangers were 9-16 on May 4, 2015 I'd be more worried about Molitor if he came off a season where his team was in it to the last weekend and looked at the guys and said. "You can't do that again".
  16. Bingo This is really the heart of the matter in my opinion. He shouldn't have been called up. Not saying he did or didn't deserve to be called up. I'm saying based on his handling... he shouldn't have been. Once he was called up... the head scratching really began.
  17. And... Either Mauer or Park will have to sit when we visit the National League.
  18. I just tacked on a point that even if I had some criticisms of Meyer's Command last night... I look forward to seeing him again on the Minnesota mound. The situation is obviously complicated. I'm willing to bet that inside the Twins organization... a debate similar to the debate being held on TD is taking place. Some think Starter... Some Think Reliever... Some Think Patience... Some Think he's old. I just want to say that I agree with Chief... His wonderful two innings produced decent results but they were dancing on a cliff in my opinion. I also believe the Castro Homer was an easy F7 in any other park and maybe things would have been different if it would have been an F7 but he followed it up with two walks and a double and a passed ball and I think Molitor made up his mind during that sequence and once Milone was ready... That was it. The Two outs made while Milone was warming was just something that happened while Molitor was thinking to himself... Is he ready yet... Is he ready yet... He's ready... OK... I'm putting him in. Honestly... I'm more interested in how the organization has handled itself since the 16 inning game in DC and Meyer has been a major part of that. Molitor's use of Meyer tells me a story. Molitor's use of Kepler and Polanco tells me a story. Molitor's' use of Dozier also tells me a story. The Twins are just in a weird place right now.
  19. I agree with Chief. His command is very questionable and I also think that Meyer should get more chances down the road. I don't believe that he cruised through 2 innings. He threw a lot of pitches and a few of them were really fantastic. Kinda like the golfer who hits one amazing shot to save par after he hit the ball in the rough and the sand trap. In my opinion. For whatever reason... Meyer seemed to have less rope then say Berrios. I'm guessing but I don't think Molitor is going to have the same mindset as some of our TD Posters. I don't think Molitor feels that the season is over. I think Molitor is trying to win games and make the playoffs and he should feel that way and Meyer doesn't have that much rope. I'm also guessing that when Meyer got into trouble in the third. He got Milone up and had made up his mind that Milone was going in immediately once ready. Meyer just happened to get a couple of outs in the meantime. I feel Molitor had already made the decision by that time and Meyer just didn't have that much rope. It can't be surprise that he didn't have rope when you look at how Meyer had been used since his call up. Meyer is 8 on the depth chart and I think that's about right.
  20. According to Greek Mythology... They set off in search of the Golden Fleece. I don't remember what happened after that.
  21. 72 That's also how many different species of "At Bat" that are native to the state of Vermont.
  22. How do you get down off an Elephant? You know Ed McMahon would have to exactly repeat Johnny to do it like Ed would normally do it.
