    Don't look now, but if he gets through the ninth unscathed, he's got a nice tidy 6 inning 3 earned run performance. Intriguing enough to stay on the 40-man through next Spring? I bet you're hoping I have just jinxed him, aren't you?

    It's got the right meter. Dipping tobacco And spitting in buckets Coming to Game Threads And saying aw... nevermind.

    http://i.imgur.com/Fuet1pk.gif Looks like I picked the right doubleheader to stop watching the Twins.

    Apparently I misunderstood the callup. Milone is listed as the starter tonight. AA is available for duty in case Tommy doesn't go nine.
  5. ashbury
    If not, Emily Litella is warmed up in the bullpen already...

    Let me just get this out of the way, in advance of tonight's game: Andrew Albers is the perfect choice of starting pitcher. (For me to poop on.)

    Get her a TD account, invite her to recount the story without referencing yours, and then let's see whether any of the details match at all!

    Wow, long date. I hope you at least made breakfast for her.

    Oh! Well that's very different then. Never mind. http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/images/reviews/103/1164723671.jpg

    Smart, maybe obvious, move to start JO in the early game, and if AA's start in the second game gets washed out, who cares.

    There are wheels within wheels toward getting a game underway - first pitch dignitaries and so forth - that might not be able to adjust on a dime and people will feel deprived. Luxury box owners might choose to risk the weather, and money talks. Not an easy decision.

    AA makes an emergency start, I'm all:

    The arm is half a step above Ben Revere's. I've seen baserunners abuse him because of it - he gets to the ball and doesn't do anything especially wrong and yet a baserunner decides to go for it and winds up not paying a price. Too many of those and it starts to be a problem even if everything else is more or less sound.

    Grossman was playing CF at AAA as recently as this past spring. He just doesn't have the arm for it, while his bat doesn't play in a corner position, making him more of a tweener, but his collection of talents could still be interesting to some other team lacking a capable 4th outfielder. He could be the proverbial sweetener in a deal centered around a more valuable guy like Dozier, to get back the prospect we want. The new Brian Duensing. Palka and Walker are more suited to their corner OF positions, if their bats turn out to be solid at the MLB level. Starter or bust, the jury is still out, although some observers seem to already have marked their ballots. Trade away Grossman, the more sure thing, and you could end up with nothing. That's the risk you take, but in the end these are all marginal choices unlikely to cause real regret if you go wrong.

    Oh, in the post-season you just pencil him in for consecutive complete game wins for series sweeps.
  16. ashbury
    Two irrelevant observations: he resembles Terry Ryan to a surprising degree. And, has he lost some weight since whenever this photo was taken?
  17. ashbury
    32-35 times a season at most, though. No more than that.

    With the rain delay, you'll have plenty of time to peruse and ponder. I hope Chief didn't get wet on his walk.
  19. ashbury
    I thought Minnesota was a Blue state.

    What did the Strat-O-Matic dice have to say about the threat of rain?

    What's the word on Hector Nolasco?
  23. ashbury
    I forgot to post this when an error was made with Kepler at bat.
  24. ashbury
    I want to peek ahead and find out what Strat-O has to say about Sano with the bases loaded!

    I like Esco-bear as a hitter. He just seems to have the knack for timely work at the plate.
