On that 'Completely Disgusting "Batter's Box to Batter's Box" 83mph Curveball', you can see why tipping his pitches could have been the difference between success and failure in his earlier trials. Imagine thinking that's a fastball inside coming at you. Now imagine knowing it's a bender.- 49 replies

Article: From Prospects To Playoff Push
ashbury replied to Seth Stohs's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
Who does not love seeing a game at that ballpark, particularly at night when the lights are on all around? -
I worried I might have put a jinx on things. This morning I decided to read the rest of the game thread before checking the outcome, and I apologize for the heartburn and ambulance calls. But waking up to chicken dinner rather than oatmeal is kind of nice. Good and spicy for me, please.

Well, the battery on my laptop is telling me I've been watching longer than I realized. I'll leave it to your collective responsibility to bring this win home.

I think he was added to the 40-man to avoid exposing him in the Rule-5 draft. Once there, options must be exercised to send him to the minors. Unless you are saying he was ready for major-league duty those seasons.
-
So, back to midseason form, eh?
-
They do extra batting practice and fielding drills. Sheesh.
-
I recognized several of the pixels.
-
I see that in the intervening time you located the missing apostrophe.
-
Just with themselves, it was a day off.

PLONK!!!!

Also, we're going to the World Series, the season is over, we're going to the World Series, the season is over, we're going to the World Series, and (wait for it) the season is over. Currently, we're going to the World Series. The season will be over soon.

I was about to guess the Spinners.
-
This is the second time tonight that Kepler has taken a very conservative approach to a fly ball at the wall. Maybe I've gotten spoiled, but I thought he would go to the wall and make the catch, both times.
-
OK, so a Fernandegasmo.
-
Nah, that call on Rosie was just a flat-out mistake by the ump. Shouldn't compound the error by expanding the strike zone that much.
-
He had a bead on the ball but was guessing about the wall. He might have thought he had one more step back and then suddenly corrected. My conclusion: this park is too small for Buxton.
-
-
In fairness, he squeezed Shields on a pitch or three elsewhere in the game. Fair but inconsistent? Or just fairly inconsistent?
-
Classic Bremergasm on that fly just short of the warning track by Buxton.
-
How many meals did you get out of this investment?
-
I expected a stronger throw from Kepler. But it worked out.
-
Probably in multiple respects.
-
And then Shields does make a chump of him at second base. Doh!

I thought it was, Mrs Chief said "It's because we have to repeat everything we say," and Chief said what he said.
