    If the Strib needs to save money and drops Rand, would anybody care ? or even notice ?
  2. Thegrin
    We certainly have enough prospects to fret and sweat over for the next few years

    This has definitely been a rebuilding year. Who would have thought that Santana & Vargas would make the jump from AA New Britain and hit so well. The season isn't over, but they both look like fixtures for the future. Hughes & Gibson are the only pitchers still starting for the Twins. Nolasco will certainly rejoin the rotation when he is declared fit for duty. I wouldn't be surprised if he pitches from the bullpen for his first outings back with the team. Pino & Milone came from trades and May is a HUGE question mark at this time. We have found out that Dozier & Plouffe can play above average baseball and E Escobar can be a starting shortstop on a major league team. Arcia and Parmalee are still question marks, but the Twins have played them regularly this far, we might as well play them through the rest of the season before we give up on them.

    They added Mauer to take Willingham's place. Buxton has hit .240 at Ft Meyers. Do we need to challenge his confidence by bringing him to the Twins ? http://www.milb.com/player/index.jsp?sid=t509&player_id=621439#/career/R/hitting/2014/ALL

    Parmalee will play almost every day from now until the end of the Year. When the year is over, we will have a good idea if Parmalee should be a regular. He certainly hits lefthanders well, his fielding is adequate and he has the potential to hit for regular power. He could put up numbers like Kubel and Cuddyer

    It makes no difference where Mauer plays, if he hits like Joe Mauer. We have Vargas, Dozier, Arcia, Plouffe & Parmalee to hit home runs... and they will only get better. A good win, that.

    Bicentennial Man was one of my favorites.

    Oh Lord! Now I am going to start hoping that Joe Mauer can hit like Joe Mauer for the rest of the season.

    Texas + Oil + Gas = a good economy + not enough liberals to **** it up

    to see whats happening down on the farms http://www.milb.com/scoreboard/index.jsp?cid=&lid=&org=142&sc=&sid=milb&t=affiliate&ymd=20140811

    I humbly stand corrected.
  12. Thegrin
    You gotta live in Texas to understand it all. Texas is the only state that has the right to succeed from the United States and no true Texan ever forgets it.
  13. Thegrin
    perhaps Pressley won't go when Nolasco is added. It will be May, instead.
  14. Thegrin
    Presley... If he doesn't pitch well he is the next to go back to Rochester.
  15. Thegrin
    "Quality Start" for Milone. I wonder if Gardy would send him back out ? I would
  16. Thegrin
    Texas drive in liquor stores = they call them Ice Houses.
  17. Thegrin
    I want to like Milone, a crafty lefty with a misspelled last name, but he is making it hard.

    Comedy is still alive and well in Houston tonight
  19. Thegrin
    Major League Comedy on a squibber.
  20. Thegrin
    Schaffer, the hitter, reminds me of Aaron Hicks.
  21. Thegrin
    That is the kind of inning that makes me not want to watch. Plouffe is a terrible situational hitter. Vargas makes a rookie mistake and Astros don't throw him out. We should be watching AA
  22. Thegrin
    Interesting first inning. Malone can sure pitch down and away.
  23. Thegrin
    Goodbye Hammer. I am glad you got that last Home Run.
  24. Thegrin
    Increased numbers of power pitchers. Increased strikeouts. Look at the number of strikeouts that Joe Mauer has had.
  25. Thegrin
    I like his base running. I hate his lack of bunting ability.
