    Nah, it'll be whichever team wanted it more. Or got after it, or whatever. BTW, I am risking the power of avatar girl on the pitching prowess of Pelfrey. Let's hope this doesn't burn her out - nice winning streak once I put her back in the lineup.

    I'm at the other end.

    How long were you on the DL?

    Take a chance now and then. Me, I'm content to let him stay where he is now, without ruling out a promotion in a month or so. He's striking out guys, but the WHIP is high enough that I think his ERA is the outlier - an artifact of having given up no home runs at all. Let him give up a few HR but bring that WHIP down a notch, and I'm ready to see him move up. With a slightly higher WHIP plus some home runs, he could have an ERA of 6+ his first several starts at high-A, and that would accomplish little. As others have said, an entire season in the state of Iowa might not be the worst thing for a young guy from far away. Fort Myers is not the place I want someone getting a first impression of mainland America.

    I can just imagine R. Clyde Gardenhire reading this thread and nodding, saying "Finally! someone GETS it."

    I did that once. Was walking down the street, sneezed, and instantly felt something bad in the lower/sacroiliac area - took a week until I could walk without a limp. Now when I feel a sneeze coming on, I stop. Talk about "can't walk and chew gum at the same time"! In Dick Allen's book he described a career-threatening cut to his hand from pushing a disabled car and putting his hand through the headlight. Smart.

    If you're picking at #4 then you need to.

    I missed this before, but: you must be really old.
  9. ashbury
    You had that as an alternate for Butera, but we really need to reserve one for Little Nicky Punto so I suggest this one.

    Note to glunn: THIS is how you set up a straight line.

    Socialism: You have two cows. The government takes one and gives it to your neighbor. Minnesota Twinsism: You have two cows. Ryan trades one for a calf to be named later, Gardy houses the other one in a doghouse.

    I was disappointed when I found out they cancelled his show, then I found out it's just that they don't show a test pattern on TV no more.

    That's because History class only went up through the Magna Carta and Math class had multiplication tables only up through 6.

    Then you shall not dub my avatar girl Olivia. My avatar girl is chaste.

    Let's get together in 117 days and we can go in together on a strip of post-season tickets.

    I'll have to get out my linear regression software but I'm sensing a trend here. The avatar girl stays.

    Glunn, go to your Settings page and find where you set "Ignore" on RB. That will cut the thread down to 1.5 pages.

    You'd have to ask the Bad Idea T-shirt company. Sounds like a joke, but they're one of your sponsors. I call her my Day Brightener. Doesn't really need a name. And I've been keeping her as my avatar continuously since this win streak started with her on view.
  19. ashbury
    What a straight line.
  20. ashbury
    I'm hoping the Twins had the same thing in mind, when they signed Butera for one-year.

    I told you this 12 games ago: take the damn bat off your shoulder, son.
  22. ashbury
    I don't think anyone in the world would take the under, on that bet.
  23. ashbury
    Yep. We been lucky. Don't know how one would cope.

    Since the discussion has included so much about kids, I'll be a Debby Downer and mention that in my search for a reason Phillip DeWayne is called P.J. I discovered he lost an infant daughter in 2010.
  25. ashbury
    Two more innings. Don't panic, my brother.
