  1. I'm not arguing to never take a pitcher, and perhaps you didn't mean that I suggested it. I would love to have drafted Appel, for example, and we see how that appears to have worked out. I would certainly suggest that in this particular case, it worked out better not to have done so. Tough luck for Prior and the Cubs, no question. Whether that is good luck for the Twins, or good luck in avoiding bad luck...above my philosophy pay grade. Perhaps the second installment of the series will argue that the Twins would still have been better off to pick Prior. I am looking forward to reading it.
  2. I have a great friend who is a diehard Cubs fan. He spent two years laughing at how cheap the Twins were for taking the second-best player to save money. Then he spent two years being worried that maybe it was the better choice. Then he told me how smart the Twins had been. Smart or lucky to dodge a bullet, either way it worked out.
  3. The sweetest words that ever have been: White Sox lose, Twins win. - big dog
  4. all right boys, remember- "This Shall Not Stand"
  5. Let's stop with all this walking off other hitters, please. - big dog
  6. Let's go Mauer clap clap clapclapclap
  7. Frazier reaches up and finds a ball in his glove. &$^#^@
  8. Wow. That was a fun popup for our side.
  9. True, but one got netting in front of the right field stands and the other hit the center field wall, so...come on.
  10. He was only off by inches, I mean feet, ok a couple of yards.
  11. All right boys, here we go. Time to set a tone for the rest of the season: "This shall not stand."
  12. Never over 'til it's over, get on base. On the other hand...what's up with Oriole hitters smacking our catchers with a bat? If there's something that deserves some yapping, and maybe a couple of inside fastballs, that's my choice.
  13. Only two wild pitches so far from Duke...two batters. Hmmm...
  14. Holy crap am I excited for this season to start. Go Twins!
  15. "Key Losses: C Chris Gimenez, LHP Hector Santiago, LHP Glen Perkins" You know, I think we can probably shrug that off...
  16. I think in a case like this, the trainer's name should be announced so that other players know who they might want to avoid. If the trainer denies it, fine, but let's air all this out. Players deserve to know. If they blame their trainer wrongly, let the trainer sue them. This will never stop otherwise.
  17. How did a foul ball to the chin result in a rod being inserted in his leg? EDIT- shin, got it. I do believe that leg injuries might be more easily aggravated when that leg is propping up a large body compared to a small body, but that's just a guess...
