  1. To be fair, the umpires are kind of rigging this game to make it look lopsided. All the Indians batters have 3 PA while the Twins batters have only 2. How is a team supposed to accumulate hits (and maybe even runs) with so few chances?
  2. Anyone who tells me September numbers don't mean anything when a club is out of contention, has this game (and the past several) as my counter-example. Playing against a contender that is hungry means something.
  3. Right. The book on him has always been... eerily similar.
  4. The direct object. After the verb, put it. Every now and then.
  5. If the Twins pitching coaches have spotted something in his arsenal that the BoSox pitching coaches missed when they converted him from starter to reliever a year or so ago, then I'd be all for it.
  6. Yeah, an assumption of a tasty ERA of 10 or 12 is a great setup for a humorous look at an actual game-in-progress ERA of 21.
  7. I think Gardy and Ryan are just trying to demonstrate, for the SABR crowd, the area around which replacement level exists for starting pitching. Or, some level below.
  8. I'm thinking that in the off-season Terry Ryan needs to acquire a few more pretty darn good starting pitchers.
  9. She would raise the average IQ of both groups by doing so.
  10. I was going to say sashaying, but sauntering is probably more correct.
  11. Carnac: One thousand wins Ed: One thousand wins. That could mean anything. Carnac: But according to this hermetically sealed envelope, tonight it will mean only one thing. Ed: What? Carnac: (Pst, Ed, you're supposed to do the whole Your Magnificence and Hey-Yo thing.) Ed: (Oh.) One thousand wins. Hey-yo, Your Magnificence. Carnac: May the fleas of a thousand lineup cards infest your cellar. Ed: The contents, please? Carnac: What didn't save Charlie Manuel either?
  12. I'm having trouble getting over that Norman conquest of the Anglo-Saxons, as well.
  13. I could be wrong but I think they are trying to use sex to sell automobiles.
  14. I'm sure if wore cleats I would give my all after hearing this.
  15. I was feverishly going through the Mozart Sonatas while stalling for time, and hadn't gotten to the Concertos yet.
  16. Women are blonde. Men are blond. Duh.
  17. Sorry. I was just transcribing this Mercedes ad: [video=youtube;GHX2mvFVQMs]
  18. A blonde walks up to the counter and says, "I'd like to order a burger, fries, and a milkshake". The lady behind the counter looks at her sternly, and says, "Miss. This is a library!" Blonde looks embarrassed, and says, "Sorry. I'd like to order a burger, fries, and a milkshake".
  19. Vern Followell only has the most awesome name for a Pro Scouting Coordinator I could ever hope to encounter, unless there exists a Sign M. McAllstar.
  20. In addition to what gunnarthor stated, Hammer actually finished 2012 hurt. It is not clear to me that fantastic off-season offers were out there to be considered - it's easy to envision other GMs replying "let's talk again in March, OK?"
  21. Five runs in three innings, after zero runs in six. Rally Avatar did her job; one of you needs to come up with something for the pitching.
  22. All ye, stand in awe at the power of the Rally Avatar.
