    I was thinking he would prefer his barley in this form: http://protzonbeer.co.uk/uploaded-images/chunks/dc38996d-da62-4fab-8316-7fb2a1c14e78-600.jpg

    Offering arbitration to Santiago?

    Congratulations, way cool! I had my gallbladder taken out today, and still my day was better than the Twins' day against Tampa, same as you.

    Almost an incorrect interpretation.

    Everyone GM baseball wants to run with a 12 man staff. And then, you get a sequence of poor starts, and your manager is begging for some mercy for his overworked bullpen, and doesn't see a AAA shuttle as the answer....

    Few 0-162 teams do.

    It was intended to express empathy, moreso than any literal meaning. But if I bollixed up a French idiom, it wouldn't be the first time.

    Not an inapt remark.

    Any word on who the "A" split-squad was playing in Hammond, and how much they won by?

    Eh bien.

    I wouldn't want you or anyone to go overboard with this.* But my wife sometimes hints around to understand why I spend too much time on TD, and now that I see this, I can't even show it to her in hopes it will make her understand. * Exception: you are hereby ordered to host one or more Game Threads this season.

    Ever watched Eduardo Escobar in batting practice? He goes all out for the fences on several pitches at a time. Fun.

    The better the pitching, the less often you see the pitch that you like. That said, it's important to be able to really DO something with the pitch you like, because every now and then you do get one. That's where the hope for Park remains. If you can do it a high enough percentage of those few times, then there's a purpose in dealing with the 95% of pitches that don't suit you. It's how I view Dozier's rise in the second half last year - I doubt he became particularly better at depositing high inside fastballs over the left field wall, but he got incrementally better at fighting off or doing something with all the other pitches, letting him live a little longer until the inside fastball came. I don't think I'm saying anything very revolutionary, and it's what I hope Park and every Twins prospect does.

    Straight to the Hall of Fame, you're saying?

    "stringer bell" Way too early to make decisions. Remember Luke Hughes? "Pardon My Dinger" Nope. "ChiTownTwinsFan" Exactly. You three should be on the stage.

    The rule also doesn't let you retain the option of inserting a DH once your Babe Ruth clone hits the showers. If you submit a lineup without a DH, you lose it for the entire game. If you're sure your pitcher will go 6+ innings, maybe it's worth the hassle/risk of having to pinch-hit for the rest of the game.

    It's the kind of thing the refs will take away from you in the first ninety seconds of every big game. Book it. 2 PF. 0 Blocks. 10 minutes sitting on the bench. 0 aggressiveness the rest of the game.

    Zathras the baseball coach: "Can not run out of time. There is infinite time. Can run out of innings. Can run self out of inning. Can run out ground balls. Must."

    Concur.

    Good play by Sano just now, apparently.

    Is that a Thread, or a Promise?
