  1. If any of you have children that are just starting to play baseball, you can show them this game as a prime example of everything not to do. Besides Keplers bunt. That was a beaut.
  2. Kevin Correia circa 2014 would be our staff "ace" Just incase you weren't already depressed enough.
  3. Hey, just relax. We haven't even got into our bullpen yet.
  4. Its a shame the Phillies don't have Papelbon anymore. Then at least we might get to see something exciting, like someone getting choked in the dugout.
  5. I guess we can thank the scorekeeper for helping make Dozier more tradeable.
  6. Haha, what? They ruled that a hit?
  7. Twins call up Tommy John, designate Jepsen to the retirement home.
  8. On the bright side, Duffey can be the designated pitcher for the home run derby.
  9. Throw in some pasta and we'll give you Phil Hughes.
  10. He saw how much Phil Hughes was getting paid to throw meatballs and wanted to get in on that.
  11. Yeah, that plan to move him to the outfield because we have superstar Trevor Plouffe at 3rd sure worked out swimmingly.
  12. I don't recall us doing so hot before any of them got injured either.
  13. That one #3 pitcher is clearly the one piece we're missing this year that's preventing us from being a world series contender. http://i1014.photobucket.com/albums/af264/JamieOwen3/Chuckle.gif
  14. The lineups they've been trotting out would beg to differ: 1. Eduardo Nunez 3B 2. Robbie Grossman LF 3. Joe Mauer DH 4. Brian Dozier 2B 5. Trevor Plouffe 1B 6. Eduardo Escobar SS 7. Max Kepler RF 8. Kurt Suzuki C 9. Danny Santana CF 1. Eduardo Nunez ® 3B 2. Danny Santana (S) LF 3. Joe Mauer (L) 1B 4. Brian Dozier ® 2B 5. Max Kepler (L) RF 6. Byung Ho Park ® DH 7. Eduardo Escobar (S) SS 8. Juan Centeno (L) C 9. Byron Buxton ® CF 1. Eduardo Nunez DH 2. Joe Mauer 1B 3. Robbie Grossman LF 4. Brian Dozier 2B 5. Trevor Plouffe 3B 6. Eduardo Escobar SS 7. Max Kepler RF 8. Kurt Suzuki C 9. Byron Buxton CF Etc.
  15. At this point, I'm not sure why anyone cares what Terry Ryan has to say. What he says and what he does rarely, if ever, match up. This is the same guy who said the bullpen was #1 priority this offseason and all he managed to do was sign Abad to a minor league contract. TR needs to be gone yesterday. Can anyone honestly say they trust him dump some veterans and make good trades before the deadline? Or that you trust him to do anything of value in the offseason? Or to handle our prospects in a manner that doesn't jerk them around endlessly in favor of mediocre veterans? At this point, I'm afraid of the (additional) lasting damage he could do to this franchise if he continues to refuse to acknowledge his complete failure at running a team. And if he can't acknowledge how bad this team is and how far we are from competing, then I worry that he is going to do something even more idiotic like trading Berrios or Sano for a 30 year old SP because he thinks thats the piece we need to make our big playoff push in 2017.
  16. Fair enough. Understandably, I'm not paying much attention.
  17. And they steal a base, just to add insult to injury. C'mon, you know we're not going to score 2 runs against Chapman, why you gotta rub it in our faces?
  18. And that would be the most idiotic trade TR has ever made. You honestly think trading Berrios and Polanco for a 2 or a 3 going into 2017 would be a good idea? If you read my post, I responded to your second point. Having one good month with a crappy team that doesn't make the playoffs isn't contending in my book. If you're happy with that, be my guest, but you're clearly in the minority.
  19. If TR thinks we're contending in 2017, then he's even more delusional than we thought. Any trade talks for a young #2 starter are going to start and end with Berrios or Sano. You can't just package a bunch of junk and 1 decent prospect and get back a young, established, 2 or 3 starter. And even if you could, it still wouldn't make us contenders in 2017. Also, since when is having one hot month and missing the playoffs "contending"? There wasn't a single team in the playoffs last season that wouldn't have annihilated us in the first round, had we even made it.
  20. And blast Benny Hill music over the sound system
  21. Well, we always talk about the country club vibe of the front office, so maybe they're going by golf rules. http://cdn4.teen.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/office-karen-shrug.gif
  22. Don't worry guys, Neil Ramirez is way more valuable than Arcia, I swear... http://67.media.tumblr.com/3317d62f2b5085c24b2056e701482048/tumblr_o782cq46EI1uggyl8o1_500.gif
  23. I rule that you're going to need to get blackout drunk to watch this game with the Yankee broadcasters. Or any broadcasters regardless.
  24. Thought we were in a rain delay so I changed the channel for a bit. Change back and we're down 4-0 in the top of the 2nd. Twins baseball!
