    There's nothing less exciting than watching the manager and the umpire idly chatting away while the manager peers into his own dugout, awaiting a thumbs up or thumbs down. I want to see grown men throwing tantrums a la Lou Piniella.

    He made the all-star team as a bench coach. A+

    Pinto reminds me of Ramon Castro in his plate approach and skill set. Castro was never a regular, but we are all hoping Pinto will be.

    Over managing by Gardy pinch running for Morales when he didn't represent the tying run. Now we are without his bat for the remainder of the game.

    "My friend Scotty offered me a Nicky Punto and a Matty Guerrier card for you and I wouldn't do it!"

    My best guess (starting at :50): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WM1OUPPiduI

    It seems like Kubel was good for at least one clutch grand slam a season. Lots of good memories.
  8. notoriousgod71
    Dick mentioned it a couple innings ago.
  9. notoriousgod71
    How quickly you forget about one Bret Boone.

    Does Ryan/Antony realize Morales didn't play for the Twins during their "glory days"? Heyman must be confused and meant Jose Morales.
  11. notoriousgod71
    Probably signed as trade bait then.
  12. notoriousgod71
    It's like making a trade!
  13. notoriousgod71
    YES! We have our center fielder!
  14. notoriousgod71
    Arcia with a bomb and skips out of the batter's box.
  15. notoriousgod71
    Good pick by the Los Angeleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez Angels of Anaheim.

    Sure if you think he's a 4 WAR player. I see a guy that couldn't stick at short (over Hanley of all shortstops, which Nick supposedly will do) and that can't hit. Of all the tools, speed is not as valuable as hitting or hitting for power.

    Listening to Selig speak is one of life's greatest treasures.
  18. notoriousgod71
    So we traded one of them and didn't sign the other despite a pressing need. Makes sense that we would take a similar player then.
  19. notoriousgod71
    He projects even higher than a guy with a sub .700 ops in his supposed breakout season?
  20. notoriousgod71
    So predictable.
  21. notoriousgod71
    My wish list: Rodon, Kolek, Toussaint, Aikens.
  22. notoriousgod71
    Seriously, what is the upside of Gordon? He's not going to be Tulowitzki or Arod or Hanley in his early years. I would consider it a wasted pick if we took him and a guy with ace potential was still on the board.
  23. notoriousgod71
    I'm not convinced they'll finish above .500 but they are far better than I could have ever imagined and not even for most of the reasons that seemed to be a toss up two months ago. I started a thread prior to the season asking if this was the worst Twins team of the last four. I said yes, because I didn't see Nolasco and Hughes as much of an upgrade, which has been partly true. I said some of the bullpen guys were due for regression (also partly true), and that the offense was horrible (partly true). Despite the struggles of Nolasco, Correia, Pelfrey, and Mauer and the injuries to Arcia and Willingham this team has defied all odds to be competitive to this point in the season. It's quite amazing, really.
  24. notoriousgod71
    Why do we want Swarzak in short relief?
  25. notoriousgod71
    Why do we care if guys eventually have to dial it back a little? Chances are they won't be with the twins by that point anyway.
