  1. 6. If the shoe fits, best to get one like just it but for the other foot.
  2. What is his value sitting at home in a dark room after his brain gets scrambled again? That is the real question, do you put him back in a position where he has a much higher chance of getting his bell rung or do you protect a 115 mill investment as best as possible? His chance of getting hurt again is much much higher if he is catching. His value is higher catching but his value is zero sitting at home or next to zero if he becomes a shell of himself. On a non-contending team why take the risk?
  3. Contending in the Central is a long way from being a World Series contender. Are we hoping to hang around and play meaningful games into early Sept? Or are we hoping to play meaningful games well into Oct? Contending for the Central isn't that hard as seen in the last 10 yrs. But we never really had the teams to contend for a WS title. That takes another level of pitching that Ryan has never shown he can put together.
  4. There are 115,000,000 reasons why Mauer should not catch again. One more foul tip and he may never be the same player again. What value does he have sitting in a dark room at home during the season?
  5. I haven't seen this kind of ball since my kids were in T ball. http://gateschililittleleague.com/yahoo_site_admin/assets/images/lit.31535919_std.jpg
  6. Twins baseball at its best!
  7. The Red Wings playoff berth could put a damper on the Twins playoff push.
  8. Albers is taking the pitch to contact a little far.
  9. Think about Brian so excited by the new twins spending his Labor day waiting for the ticket office at Target field to open so he can buy playoff tickets.
  10. I think it's amazing after 3 90+ loss seasons that the best path is do nothing because doing something might not work, Just stay the course because this is so much fun.
  11. Nothing will really change maybe shuffle a few chairs. Gardy will be back, imo. The pohlads would have to care for real change to happen.
  12. It was on the Christmas card he sent out!
  13. 99. Think about when the twins were interesting enough to have hundreds of comments during a game. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-YHIR3EZ03Pc/UVxAgztbUqI/AAAAAAAABAs/RZId58mRGWg/s320/A+Sleeping+Fan.jpg
  14. 33. Think about no longer having the big Canuck around! Tribute: http://feminspire.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/canadian-convention-body-art1.jpeg
  15. "As a fan, it feels like the money is more important than the product. It feels like my favorite team's GM is more proud of the cash he saves ownership than the team he puts on the field. And it feels like trading away Justin Morneau was more about saving a few million dollars than trying to build for the future." BINGO +++++++
  16. "How did you folks feel about the Morneau trade?" Unless the guys they got are something other than fill I think he should have finished out the season, he deserved that much, imo. Now if he was ok with going for a chance to win instead of it being what looks like a salary dump it's ok I guess.
  17. By Jeff Todd [August 31 at 8:49pm CST] 8:49pm: The PTBNL is pitcher Duke Welker, MLB sources tell Tom Singer of MLB.com. Welker, 27, threw 1 1/3 scoreless innings in a brief stint with the Pirates earlier this season, his first with a major league club. In the minors, the 6-foot-7 right hander has a 3.25 ERA in 61 innings for the Pirates' Triple-A affiliate this year.
  18. This Presley guy not only can sing but sounds like soon to be all time great Twin or maybe Roy has extra lipstick to night.
  19. For Mournie! http://doblelol.com/thumbs/canada-canadian-air-force-cka-funny_4871782469272864.jpg
  20. Twins now have no player left that has played in a Twin playoff game win. The last win was on Oct. 5, 2004 a long time ago.
  21. Think about Jim Pohlad and Terry Ryan sending their best! http://content7.flixster.com/question/67/43/29/6743297_std.jpg
  22. Even with the world's greatest manager and baseballs best coaches he isn't getting any better, actually getting worse. Without a 2 1/2 week 10 hr blitz last year how bad would his overall numbers really be? If he wasn't a gold glove type fielder..... He's making Tony Batista look good.
  23. We shared a bag of Oreo cookies after group therapy.
