  1. Thanks for your comments! I will take these into consideration. Has anyone rode the train from MOA to Target Field? How long does it take? How early before game time should we go? It will be a Friday evening game.
  2. I am predicting a strikeout or a 4-6-3 dp. I am joking. It seems whenever I am in attendance, that is what happens.
  3. I have been to a few games at Target Field but now it is time to take my son. He is 3 and very interested in baseball. I was wondering what others opinions were on where to sit. I was kind of thinking sections 1-3 or 14-16. I think sitting close would keep his attention and the hopes of getting a ball might really spark a love for the game that I have. I would love to hear your opinions.
  4. I think what Florimon meant to says was that he was surprised it took them this long into the season to make the move.
  5. Shouldn't there still be a 40 man move if Guerrier is now on the 25? Any idea what they are doing with Arcia? I heard he was out of the lineup last night due to general soreness.
  6. The wife and I honeymooned in Watiki. I bet some of you are jealous thinking that Watiki is a beautiful island somewhere in the middle of the ocean. Unfortunately, it isn't, or at least not that I know of. It is a hotel with an attached water park in Rapid City, SD. We spent our honeymoon in the beautiful Black Hills. Funny thing is that we mentioned we went to Watiki to one of my wifes friends and she asked which Hawaiian island that one was. We didn't have the heart to tell her.
  7. I tend to agree with Dan Gladden, who mentions from time to time on the air, that the score board will dictate a few things. Whether it is bunting for a hit in the first inning, bunting to break up a no hitter, stealing bases with a big lead, showboating a solo homer with a big lead or if you are down a few runs, all of these depend on what the situation is. It seems that the umps are kind of stepping in early and when they issue a warning when someone gets hit. It used to be that if a guy hits a homer and admires it, he gets hit the next time. The next inning, the lead off guy gets hit and it ended. Now they issue a warning without being able to get one back. If it goes beyond that, step in. Let the players police themselves.
  8. That was a sorry excuse for baseball. I don't know if I have seen the in little league. I am glad the Twins won but I am embarrassed for Toronto
  9. Thanks for the info! Great to be a member of Twins Daily!
  10. We usually stay downtown close to Target Field and we have had good luck with Priceline for hotels. I think we have paid in the range of $50-$75 a night and have stayed at the Westin, Marriot, Radisson, and Marquette. All are within walking distance to Target Field.
  11. Correct me if I am wrong but isn't there a $10 concession voucher/credit that comes with seats in the Great Clips section in RF?
  12. Is anyone concerned that Mauer has 8 Ks in 29 ABs?
  13. Aaron hits number 715?
  14. On the radio broadcast, Provus said he asked Gardy about catching Suzuki and DH'ing Pinto and Gardy said he is fine with doing that and he plans on doing it. Where was that philosophy when Butera was around?
  15. A day late and not in uniform but here is Molly.
  16. Tonkin was optioned down to AAA on 3/24.
  17. I am a little surprised by this. I guess if and when an injury happens at the major league level or one of the 5 isn't performing, Deduno will move from the pen into the rotation. I guess Meyer or Diamond gets the 2nd and 3rd shot.
  18. On the radio broadcast, they said he has cleared waivers and accepted an assignment to AAA.
  19. I agree. Atlanta made their reaction move by signing Santana. I could see a team like Arizona or Oakland taking a chance since they have had injuries but they also have a lot of young talent ready or close to ready. Waive him and see what happens.
  20. Its interesting that in the second article that they have Willingham and Pelfrey in the 2016 projected lineup.
  21. I think I would take Gatewood over Turner if I had to choose between the two. Maybe Gatewood doesn't stick at SS, maybe he does. I am still holding out hope for Kolek.
  22. I was kinda hoping Worley would make the roster....I am not sure that is going to happen any more.
  23. I think they had one in Milwaukee in 87.
  24. A good friend of mine was fortunate to play minor league baseball. He was a 50th round pick of the Pirates but made it to AAA. He told me once that basically all the guys pocket their meal money since they had food in the clubhouse after the games. I think at one time he said it was $50 a day when they were at home and it was slightly higher when they were on the road. At the time he was in AAA, Pat Mahomes was also on the roster and would take a bunch of guys out to eat and pick up the tab.
