    Five year old update: 1)On to the cotton candy. "Do I have cotton candy on my nose?" (And all over your face.) 2)"Your team is crushing the Orioles 43-0! I'm just kidding, I combined the 4 and 3." Could use a bit of offense here.
  2. AlwaysinModeration
    4 hits, 3 homers. Need the bullpen to step up. Still a good outing by Berrios.
  3. AlwaysinModeration
    Hometown crowd (and O's) upset that the ump didn't appeal that check swing strike. Definitely borderline...
  4. AlwaysinModeration
    Pitch four was "ump home team bias"
  5. AlwaysinModeration
    Also, 5-year old update: 1)hot dog, lemonade, and ice cream...already 2)rooting for Orioles "because it sounds like Oreos" 3)"why didn't [Adam Jones] throw it to me?"...as he was coming off the field

    From the field (seats right behind 1B) update: Vargas during warmups: 1)Barehands a throw from Dozier one inning 2)Bounces one off his bicep before starting warmup tosses the next inning Definitely got a little Big Papi vibe going. Also,4-1, Hardy HR

    The Nats, as we live in DC and have met several of the players over the years through their Little League. Haven't manage to convert any to the Twins yet, but I will keep working on it.

    I'm playing a good practical joke on my youngest son today. I'm with him on the bus currently with his class on a field trip. He's thrilled that I am taking the day off of work to accompany his class...to Port Discovery, in Baltimore. Little does he know, we are going to leave at lunch and go catch the game. We literally just drove past Camden Yards, and he said "Can we go?" I told him "Maybe someday."

    From the write-up, this note about his past six starts: "He gave up one run on five hits across 7.1 innings to finish off his sixth straight start of at least seven innings. During the six-game stretch, Wright has allowed just six runs on 17 hits with 62 strikeouts over 46.2 innings." Meanwhile, as noted earlier, McKay pitched on Thursday against Florida State, with Kade McClure going Friday night. He gave up 7 runs, 5 earned, in 5IP, 5 hits, 4 walks, 6Ks on 111pitches. If you look at McKay's stats and squint a bit, you could say his teammate Drew Ellis is putting up better offensive numbers, and McClure may have surpassed him in the mound as the Friday starter. I'm getting onboard the "Wright Choice" train, I think.

    I don't know, generous.
  11. AlwaysinModeration
    Is it too early to say something like "that's one day closer to Berrios' next start?
  12. AlwaysinModeration
    Given history, it almost seems like Gordon would have doubled Mauer off on that one.
  13. AlwaysinModeration
    True...but it actually seemed like the Twins should have scored several runs throughout the game. It was all just karma.
  14. AlwaysinModeration
    Don't hit it to Gordon.
  15. AlwaysinModeration
    Mauer walk off, part 2?
  16. AlwaysinModeration
    Greene seems like the sexiest pick. But it does seem like a strong argument can be made / has been made that Wright is the best pitcher in the draft, and should be the pick. I also agree that the "two-way" bonus that Greene and McKay both receive is a red herring that is inflating their value. If the rub on Wright is that he has control issues, does he recent stretch of low walk starts change that?
  17. AlwaysinModeration
    I nominate this post as the hyperventilating post of the day, likely month, for multiple reasons. Let's have some perspective here. He is still 22.
  18. AlwaysinModeration
    The kid is 22 years old. I am looking forward to him being locked into the starting rotation for the Twins for many, many years.
  19. AlwaysinModeration
    I feel like I am misquoting you, but it is what you wrote. It's right here on the internet, for all to see.
  20. AlwaysinModeration
    Thanks for winning the series. Can we be greedy and ask for more?
  21. AlwaysinModeration
    Well, I hope not.
  22. AlwaysinModeration
    I don't know about you all, but for the rest of the season, I am planning on relying on the ol' "Ervin Hector Berrios, And pray it heavily snows" approach
  23. AlwaysinModeration
    Was this already applauded?
  24. AlwaysinModeration
    "Like"
  25. AlwaysinModeration
    There is your run-of-the-mill "like."Then there is the "I've run out of likes, so I will just type "LIKE." Then there is your nomination for POTD. Now, nomination for post of the month...you are flying real close to the sun, right there, Samplesizeofone!
