  1. There's nothing left on this car that's original. I sometimes call it my very own Ship of Theseus.
  2. Thanks; it was originally blue, but I have always had soft spot for R6 red. And no, I'm not a Steve.
  3. Okay, sorry about the delay: http://i.imgur.com/hnQl8Kj.jpg Ignore the Vermont plate. That was a whole big ...thing. Whatever; it's got a Minnesota plate now. I took this picture over by the old Pillsbury A Mill. I don't think you can get there anymore, because it's where they're building Mill & Main apartments.
  4. I do, yes. Let me find my favorite picture of it and I'll link. Give me a few minutes.
  5. I'm liking the way his curve ball has looked in the couple times I've seen it. Big break, and he got a nasty strike two on the first batter.
  6. Great news! It's almost 99% off!
  7. Nobody likes Sneaky Pete's. Not even Pete. Try Cuzzy's. You'll go into the stadium using a different gate, but that dive bar is friendly and not skeezy like Stinky Pete's with the strip club on top. If you want a less divey dive, try Darby's.
  8. Try the Kentucky Fried Rabbit, and definitely get there early, as it will get crowded quickly. Great place in a great neighborhood.
  9. Bigger surprise? Mauer near the top in strikeouts or Suzuki near the top in RBI? Or, I guess, Colabello near the top in ...anything?
  10. I think it's called "California Casual." Pretty sure some people called for this in the other thread. Who's going to claim their prize?
  11. ...aaaaaaand you jinxed it.
  12. If he continues to hit does it matter much whether he's committing lots of errors in A ball? I'm reminded of Miguel Sano whose errors at third were just piling up in A ball. Every night it seemed like he got another one. But scouts thought he could stick, so the team kept putting him out at third, growing pains be damned. After all, think of how his bat will play if he sticks at third. Same thing with Polanco - think of how his bat will play if he sticks at short. At this point, I don't think either Goodrum or Michael are in the same class of prospect as Polanco; if either of those two make it at all, it will likely be as a backup or utility type. I'm all for giving Polanco a long time to work out the kinks.
  13. This is the thing that scares me the most. Morneau was having an MVP year pre-concussion, and he's been hanging around .750 OPS since. It was a real career-killer. I am honestly a little bit worried that Mauer won't be the same either. On the other hand, there's nothing that 15 games will tell us about whether the effects are permanent. I think he must be rusty, and I think it's at least possible that there are still some lingering concussion effects, but only time will tell.
  14. For a hot minute there, Brian Dozier was leading the league in home runs. (Then Bautista happened.) And by the way, your league leader in RBI is STILL Chris Colabello.
  15. I voted No (but he'll get in the next year). I know that's controversial, but I just don't think his total body of work is there yet. I'm going to need to see 10 to 15 more innings before I can really judge whether he belongs on the first ballot.
  16. Bring back Lew Ford!!
  17. That was my mistake. I read it as 32 pitches in that one inning. 16 per isn't bad at all.
  18. This is why Bautista isn't a center fielder.
  19. The screen I was looking at said it was more than 30. Was that wrong?
  20. A lot of pitches for Hughesie so far...
  21. Colabello with another double. From my angle, two more feet and we've got a home run. A lot of people are indoors at this game.
  22. Great line. So what's the timetable with Wimmers? Will we see him in the Eastern League at some point?
