  1. Bert Blyleven. Because it fits well with the other premises.
  2. Note also that Wednesday's game, if played, has been moved from FSN to FSN+ to handle the Wild playoff game.
  3. I'm sure it was just because his Spiderman suit was in the laundry.
  4. May 8th is his current opt-out date. Unfortunately I fear Tonkin instead of Burton would be the casualty. Options and all.
  5. The next (hopefully post-rain) home stand starts May 13th against the Red Sox. That would be the earliest I'd see a move being made that involves messing with the 40-man.
  6. My guess as to what will happen (not to be confused with what I might want) is that first will come the Pelfrey-Deduno swap. After that, the shopping of Correia. Meyer will take that spot, which puts this in late June at the earliest. That would be my guess. I would not feel bad to be proved wrong.
  7. The obvious question here: if Drew is that good, how come the Tigers, who are clearly in "win now mode," have not signed him? It's not like they have a high first round pick, and are willing to open up the bank.
  8. "Walk a mile in my cleats."
  9. I guess I'd choose to not give the wins back, even when they derive from that inferior base on balls.
  10. Snopes.com has a message for you, sir.
  11. It's been raining pretty steadily here since last night. And there are thunderstorms forecast for tonight and tomorrow, or I suppose they may have tried to play Monday. Btw, the lineup was posted before the cancellation, and Plouffe was in it as normal.
  12. If you make this out of bobbleheads you could fit in more people.
  13. Although today's game was rained out Plouffe was listed in the starting lineup. He probably feels bad about missing Verlander.
  14. A Pelfrey-Deduno flip flop does seem like the right progression.
  15. Probably because he's not with the team any more, and people are looking at the actual available options? There is a fairly lengthy thread in the 'more baseball' area about Solarte.
  16. Gibson certainly seems to be sliding into the ace slot; Price last time and now Verlander. It will be good to see how he responds after a tough outing in Tampa.
  17. Fuld brings a calmness to the outfield long missing. Very happy about this pickup.
  18. Twins ever win a game in which they were no hit?
  19. Yup. http://www.schickele.com
  20. I'd love to see them do something with Peter Schickele.
  21. Speaking of entertainment, I predict you will get a kick out of this:
  22. Five minutes after Nunez is pronounced healthy, he'll be called up. I'd expect Florimon to be optioned at that time. Arcia is starting rehab games today, but it wouldn't be a huge surprise if he spends a few more weeks in Rochester working on timing after that. Willingham hasn't swung a bat and I'd guess he's a late May return at the earliest. Guerrier is probably the next up after Nunez; whether he takes Tonkin's or Burton's spot is still up for grabs.
  23. Saber metrics; i.e., mine's bigger.
  24. They do; since 2011 I think. There are also brand new metal detectors at the gates, so be ready for that. http://minnesota.twins.mlb.com/min/ballpark/information/index.jsp?content=tech
