  1. Words fail on that one. That's Jim Thome territory out there.
  2. I'm partial to Gato Grande. One thing I know for sure is that the whole "Miggy" thing needs to stop now. That's Miguel Cabrera, and I don't like Miguel Cabrera.
  3. Seriously. If he's got some kind of non-banned-substance secret to velocity, they should keep him around just to pick his brain. 5 MPH is ridiculous.
  4. Maybe neither here nor there, but the Harper free agent contract is coming up in 2018. I think a lot of agents are going to wait for him to set the market so they can point to extension offers like this and say "Pssh, the Yankees gave Bryce Harper half a billion dollars, and you expect me to happy with $200 million!?"
  5. I have absolutely no idea what that means, but yeah.
  6. Captain Hindsight also wants to remind me that that wouldn't have mattered, apparently.
  7. Well, I just hope the Twins take back (and hold) the lead. Get Santiago that win, now that he qualifies for it. It was a tough at-bat by Odor, but on a bad day for Santiago, he battled.
  8. I know, I know, I'm going all Captain Hindsight here, but I'm not sure Santiago should have faced Odor at all.
  9. You and my wife can order the broccoli. More brisket for me, I guess.
  10. I am so, so sorry. About you being a vegetarian, I mean.
  11. My man. I'm a Loyola/USC guy myself.
  12. "Catchers who can throw the ball to second base in the air." Dick is a savage.
  13. (Sorry this is so late, but it was utterly ludicrous what I had to do to get this created/uploaded.)
  14. Escobar making that DH decision look pretty good.
  15. Bleu cheese in certain cases. Chimichurri at Argentinian places. Peppercorn sauce if it's ordered that way. Salt. Horseradish seems more like a prime rib thing, doesn't it? Oh well, I'd have it anyway. Any I'm missing?
  16. True. I personally don't think the time is right to bring him up, nor do I think sending him up and down (what we've called "jerking around" for others) is a sound strategy. But I also hope that he'll force the issue soon enough to where we won't ever have to worry about options for him.
  17. If Romero is on the 40 man and in the minor leagues, he's already on optional assignment. This is one of his option years, and it doesn't matter for options if he gets moved up and down this year.
  18. I get it. I also completely agree that not only is defense not "irrelevant," but probably should impact pay in a perfect world. But in the real world, the Twins don't have a shot at free agent Trout, do they? If locking up home grown Sano requires an overpay, I say go for it. At least it's something our team can actually do. Ultimately I think we're mostly in agreement here. The only question is more how much of an overpay are you able to stomach?
