    But the name Ramon Ortiz will probably not come up.

    Not a good pitch, not good contact on the swing, net result... single through the hole. Baseball.

    Bremer right on top of the Wild Pitch call. Except... Passed Ball (to which I say, Concur).

    If you're referring to the groundout that retired Roberto Perez, that's always been a play that Sano excels at. Something slow on the ground, he's aggressive, and then makes use of the cannon arm.

    Why would we want them?

    At some point, the resemblance will start to fade for you, right? Will it take until he gives his HOF acceptance speech?
  7. ashbury
    Oh. Goody.

    Is anyone still concerned that Nelson needs to shake off the rust?

    You are very kind, rather than hit me with this meme:

    If you've heard of "Christmas in July" then it only stands to reason if we celebrate Thanksgiving in June.

    That, plus the photo's file name contained the gentleman's name.

    I don't know what is meant by "blood condition" for Carrasco, but the worst-cases are very bad and it's right to take this seriously.

    Don't quit your day job. But seriously (ladies and germs) I'd say welcome, but you've been here a while, so instead, thanks for sharing.

    While the tangent about the value of free-agents is interesting, this thread is for 2019 news, and perhaps the tangent should be taken to a new thread now if people want to pursue it.

    I'm not asking you who's on second.

    We're collectively dancing around a difficult point, so maybe I should state this as a: Moderator's Note: It's not nice to mock people, and it's contrary to our site's Comment Policy. On the other hand, irony and satire are time-honored ways of making a point, but can be tricky to pull off because they can be taken literally. When you write the opposite of your actual meaning, to make the point stronger, or when you extrapolate someone's position, to expose the folly, it can come across as mocking the person moreso than the opinion itself. There's been a fair amount of that lately, and maybe it's time to dial it back a little. When you write something that's meant to be caustically humorous, make sure the target is clearly the opinion you are rebutting, and not the person. Humor is encouraged where appropriate, but mocking each other is not condoned here.

    We'll make that a top priority. /s

    If he did, he'd be rolling over in his grave right now.

    It's satire, which often doesn't go over well here, and I've got the scars to prove it.

    USAFChief takes one look at these dates and says, "1900, 1901? They might be experienced enough to make a contribution."

    Sorry, I was unable to read your message, as my computer is currently in need of repair.

    For the past several years, a team's draft money goes into and out of a pool of funds, the size of which varies from team to team. The Twins will likely spend every penny of their allotment. $4M to one player comes out of what could go to other draftees, causing them to refuse to sign, which in turn has a negative effect on the size of the pool. If as you say this one guy fell to the third round, then all 30 teams went through this exact calculation, one or two or three times. It's not reasonable to chalk this up to ownership.
  24. ashbury
    If you have the ones from all the other seasons and are missing just this one, you might pay the price.

    I see a post from you. It's in the Minor League forum area. http://twinsdaily.com/topic/33394-draft/?do=findComment&comment=856555
