    From what Stew has previously mentioned on this site, MLB dictates that official scorers err on the side of giving players hits instead of errors so this rant is not directed toward him but this is an absolute pet peeve of mine. You physically have to throw the ball in the stands and have the batter reach second base for anyone to get an error these days. Pop up dropped? It must have been the sun. Hit. Ground ball a foot to the third baseman's left? Hit, he had to range 12 inches for that ball. Bad throw to first that beat the batter by three seconds? Hit, he might have beat it out. Ball kicked around the outfield? Triple, Cabrera was thinking three all the way. It's ridiculous, in my opinion, and I don't understand how no one bats .400. Pardon me for expecting MLB players to be better skilled defensively than your common Little League team.

    I told my boss I was feeling pretty tired and to send me home at noon. I was told to stfu and get back to work.

    I'm actually rooting for the Twins to lose this game tonight because if they lose and Sale wins he will have as many wins as our Minnesota Twins, who Dick refuses to accept will not be winning the World Series this year.

    Dave Roberts just brought Joe Blanton into face Donaldson with the bases loaded in a tie game btw so let's never complain about Molitor again. AND HE GETS DONALDSON ON A POP UP ON THE FIRST PITCH!

    When was the last time the Twins handling of a prospect wasn't soundly criticized? I don't think that is a strong point of this organization.

    Ryan has nothing at stake here. Whether we win 100 or lose 100 he will return. In fact, it's probably better for him to lose 100 as long as he isn't spending any money to do so.

    I remember one of Gio's previous starts against the Twins very well. What an awful game.

    BREAKING NEWS: Rick Anderson named assistant to the special assistant of the general manager.

    St. Peter would like you to know that the Twins will debut their new red uniforms on Wednesday as they try to avoid an 0-8 start.

    Nunez pinch hitting for our "big" FA signing.

    I love the pompous arrogance of this organization masked by an "Aw, shucks" Midwestern demeanor.
  12. notoriousgod71
    Oh he is completely biased but you can tell if the sox are winning or losing because he is either beaming or bitching. With Dick he tries to make it seem like the Twins are the best thing in the world no matter how they are playing.
  13. notoriousgod71
    At least with Hawk you can tell what is happening. Bremer makes it sound like we are a top echelon team every broadcast.
  14. notoriousgod71
    Wait, so they gave Eaton a hit on that play that was overturned even though it was bobbled?
  15. notoriousgod71
    Dick bragging up Target Field so you know the game is lost. "I would have to guess this is the most popular stadium in the American League by people that don't live here." I would guess not, unless by popular you mean players enjoy coming here to get 2-3 wins a series.
  16. notoriousgod71
    I love that this team is getting booed off the field during the home opener.
  17. notoriousgod71
    You can copy/paste this at least twice a game.

    Molly: "Carlos, we will be sending you to Rochester. But the moment Arcia does not sprint out of the box, looks lost in the outfield, or flips his bat you will be back up." Carlos: "So I'm in the opening day lineup, skip?"

    So we traded two starting center fielders for a set up guy and a guy that is 26 and regressing every season? Cool.
  20. notoriousgod71
    The trade of Erickson for Scott Klingenbeck and Kimera Bartee is one of Ryan's best known failures. Yet, Ryan considers this his best trade ever.
  21. notoriousgod71
    I would expect Arcia to be better than Park. My expectations are very low for him.
  22. notoriousgod71
    We are going to regret getting rid of Arcia... and at this point I don't see a way he is here long term and that is frustrating to me.
  23. notoriousgod71
    The guy has a 1.50 WHIP and 5.5 BB/9 every year regardless if he's in MLB or the minors. I don't know why anyone would expect him to be different this season.
  24. notoriousgod71
    I don't trust that my definition of an ace is the same as Terry Ryan's. Brad Radke is not an ace.
  25. notoriousgod71
    Platooning Hicks and Arcia makes so much sense that it will ever happen. Arcia can start against right handed pitchers and get his 3-4 AB. Hicks can pinch run or be defensive replacement in a late innings lead situation and start against lefties, leaving Arcia available to PH for any number of our light hitters. Basically how we used Gomez/Kubel late in 2009.
