    Jetsons.

    Doumit walks to lead off the inning. This should be big.

    Just in time. Rust makes the milk taste bad.

    "But it just may be Deduno that you're lookin' for...."

    I spotted the photo before I read the words, and assumed this would be in further comment about Deduno.

    We can have two Kevin Correia's for his price. Pass.

    Except when you shake it there's this sound of breaking glass inside.

    Has anyone noticed that Mauer is on pace for about 150 strikeouts this year? / answer - yes, pretty much every blogger in the universe...

    Except for Plouffe being out and Carroll in his place, this is kind of the A-team starting lineup Gardy's put out there. (Modulo any disagreements about how "A-team" and certain individuals belong together in concept.)
  12. ashbury
    Yay.

    Tribe's falling fast. By the trading deadline they'll be down among the Royals and White Sox as the dregs of this otherwise strong division. / edit - oh, and as for my game face, doesn't my avatar say it all?

    Rumor has it the Indians would be willing to trade Matt Capps if the right offer of a young catcher comes along.

    Grand F00rks?

    Very apt metaphor. I'd say, "buckle up," except that the safest thing may be to be thrown clear of the vehicle if need be, and accept your broken collarbone instead of something worse. Sounds vaguely familiar, Doc.

    Drop me a note if your plans firm up.

    Too bad the Twins trip goes directly from Anaheim to Seattle. I was envisioning this as a road trip, and adding SoCal completely changes the complexion of it. I think Anaheim has to be next year. Now, if you could actually deliver Olivia's consent to attend, that would completely change the complexion again - but it would have to be viewed as a date for my son there, not for me. I'd just be an interested onlooker. Please continue your research.

    It comes down to fundamental scouting, which the Twins are pretty good at. If they don't see it as a 4-person draft, and no one in the top echelon falls to them, then maybe. But at #4, there should be somebody with a significant major league career available, and it would be bad to come away with bench strength and relievers when we get to find out the results ten years from now, so I am skeptical of the strategy. If the guys you wanted get taken anyway, before you get your later picks, because there are 29 other GMs forming their own strategies independently, then "oops".

    Hard to believe a week ago, but one could say "third-place Minnesota Twins" in articles like these.
  21. ashbury
    I depend on that from readers of my own posts, as often as not.

    That's actually a possibility sometime. I have three kids, scattered to the three biggest population centers on the west coast.

    For some reason the feed doesn't seem to buffer, and my DSL internet connection means that it pauses every five seconds or less. I saved the mp3 file to disk and ran it from there and then it was smooth. I have to say that none of the microphones seemed professional, each sounding like low-end home-market equipment in its own way. Low digital sample rate?

    The Twins will be in Seattle in late July. I'm considering making the trip up there for one or more games. I seem to recall somebody who posts here living in that region, but I can't remember who. If you'd be interested in meeting up with a fellow TDer for one of these games, drop me a note.

    Welcome to TwinsDaily and I hope to see more from you. But: "head coach"?
