    There's a woman behind home plate with a couple of great personalities
  2. B Richard
    That's awesome, great for him. Sounds like he has the right attitude
  3. B Richard
    Isn't Ball a little more out of the picture for the Twins than guys like Manaea and Meadows (whom you profiled in the last couple days)? He is certainly intriguing. Is there a reason we haven't heard him mentioned alongside someone like Kohl Stewart?
  4. B Richard
    Wishing Trevor a speedy recovery, but great to see the guy get a chance. I would have loved to watch him hear the big news
  5. B Richard
    Just ask Johan Santana...

    Thanks for this Shane, for the record I read your 1B breakdown and look forward to future installments.
  7. B Richard
    Yeah, where's your '91 World Series banner?
  8. B Richard
    Run, it's the fuzz! Officer Doumit is on site.

    Part of me enjoyed seeing Plouffe get hit in a weird way
  10. B Richard
    That's the Minnesota Twins I know and love...
  11. B Richard
    he was pinch run for last inning (Dozier)
  12. B Richard
    Great inning for Burton. Like a hot knife through butter
  13. B Richard
    Plouffe you ****ing idiot. Nice play to block the bag by Pena At least Doumit moves up a base
  14. B Richard
    Officer Doumit reporting for duty
  15. B Richard
    Officer Doumit, that's a double homicide.
  16. B Richard
    That hit from Morneau was a carbon copy of his last one
  17. B Richard
    Juan Francisco was trying to put that ball in the Ohio river... again
  18. B Richard
    That's a championship formula if I've ever heard of one
  19. B Richard
    Swarzak has that twinkle in his eye... we might just party like it's 1991!
  20. B Richard
    Officer Doumit at the plate
  21. B Richard
    Maybe he saw a cute girl
  22. B Richard
    Sano goes yard twice though (12th and 13th) and maintains a BA above .350
  23. B Richard
    Trevor May turns in another less than ideal start: 5IP 8H 2ER 5BB 6K, 1 HR. I am growing increasingly concerned with his walk numbers and his ability to start
  24. B Richard
    Checked a weather report- this rain should really clear up soon. We'll be missing cut off men and chasing balls out of the zone in no time!

    I appreciate the avatar compliment. There's just a couple points I'd like to make. I never said Colabello wasn't in his prime-- for all intents and purposes here, he is. What I did say was that he is not really a part of a long term solution for the Twins organization. There's a couple guys, Hicks and Arcia, who might be. Evaluating their respective skill sets and seeing how they might fit into a future WS run is more important than a couple extra wins in 2013. We have seen flashes of greatness from both, but both could certainly benefit from working down in AAA with regular ABs and without constant pressure. It's also important to remember how Parm raked in AAA. AAA stats are not perfect indicators of how someone is going to handle major league velocity, movement and control. Seeing as how Colabello has yet to have made a splash in the bigs, it might be a little too soon to deem him the best bench bat we have. The gist of what I was getting at in my original post revolved around an untrue claim about how the Twins promote. I was just pointing out that the motives of a rebuilding team are inherently different than a "win now" club. With all of that being said, I personally think we have seen enough of Parm/Hicks/ et al. for the time being to give Colabello a shot at the bigs. Maybe he sticks around for now. Maybe he doesn't. I am personally in favor of a promotion for the man. Just wanted to clear that up.
