  1. Bonifacio is making a lot of clubs regret passing on him right now. 13/24 out the chute.
  2. I think the issue is that some of us view Bartlett as a wild card, sort of like Kubel (or Johan), who if he regains his prior form would be good enough to command regular at-bats. The Twins don't see it that way, at least not Gardy. Gardy only needed to see 1 spring training game (a minor league game) from Florimon to declare "he's our shortstop." They never saw Bartlett as a wildcard. Granted, Bartlett didn't blow anyone's socks off in ST to press the issue. Its Gardy's call, they're W-L is 2-3 so who are we to argue with it.
  3. Is that better? http://i.imgur.com/1UroEJP.jpg
  4. "Right, 1000. What did I say?"
  5. http://i.imgur.com/3otWIFS.jpg?1 Finally!
  6. He did seem to be jerking the afastball around. But, when he did throw a strike, nobody could really square him up. Not a gem but I'll take it.
  7. Did anyone hear that? I think Dozier is corking his elbow.
  8. If I could have a superpower just for today. It would be the ability to secretly command everyone in Progressive Park to do this each time Yan Gomes is announced: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ozgTmgyEVSs/UCDNA_xZe4I/AAAAAAAAItk/eu_D0J-9JZk/s400/hedgehog-yawn.jpg
  9. Sorry I had to see for myself. http://i.imgur.com/crOOGz5.jpg Yep, that is way too much king.
  10. Well now that we know Giambi's bowel movements are regular again, onto the 4th...
  11. Baseballreference does http://www.baseball-reference.com/teams/MIN/2013-batting.shtml Twins were 125/291 (43%) in those spots last year The Cardinals, who were maybe the most "clutch" of any team, were 188/353 (53%)
  12. Hey Francona think fast! http://i.imgur.com/N3T70fL.jpg
  13. Maybe, but, we are up 3-0. I'll wait for the bullpen to blow the lead first. edit: or Mauer
  14. Oh right I mean, how in the world are we going to stop this guy http://assets.nydailynews.com/polopoly_fs/1.961301!/img/httpImage/image.jpg_gen/derivatives/article_1200/alg-terry-francona-raissman-jpg.jpg
  15. Dozier channeling his inner Jacque Jones
  16. Did he just call him Ron Gardenhower?
  17. How in the world are we going to stop this guy http://www.billy-ball.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Tito-Francona1.jpg
  18. I just don't get it. With a team as offensively challenged as ours, why would you not put all your LHs out there against a RH starter. Take every edge you can get. (Watch Colabello go 4/5)
  19. Radar doesn't look too bad: http://www.wunderground.com/radar/radblast.asp?zoommode=pan&prevzoom=zoom&num=6&frame=0&delay=15&scale=1.000&noclutter=0&ID=CLE&type=N0R&showstorms=0&lat=41.49306870&lon=-81.66831970&label=Cleveland,%20OH&map.x=400&map.y=240&scale=1.000&centerx=400&centery=240&showlabels=1&rainsnow=0&lightning=0&lerror=20&num_stns_min=2&num_stns_max=9999&avg_off=9999&smooth=0
  20. I dunno. Take the ESPN contract, for example. 8 years, 5.6 billion. Add the dozens of contracts each team has with RSNs. That's guaranteed money, and as a bonus, it puts the onus on the networks to actually sell their product to the cable providers and ultimately, the viewer. Seems like a pretty sweet deal to me.
  21. Who's more coachable, a wild 17 year old or a wild 21 year old? *Caveat - the 17 year old is playing his 5th year of organized baseball. The 21 year olds are playing their... I dunno, 12th.
