    Follow-up article about the Dodgers. https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/the-dodgers-might-be-in-actual-legal-trouble/ Human trafficking and RICO violations are alleged.

    Wilson Ramos ring a bell? If memory serves, he was kidnapped in Venezuela for ransom, which I guess was sort of a cottage industry in Venezuela a few years ago. So yeah, shaking down someone in another country isn't beyond the realm of possibility. Heck, back in the seventies, a couple of buddies of mine were shaken down at the Mexican border when trying to come back into the US. Pretty funny story. Border guards tried to get $80 and my buddies talked the border guards down to $40.

    There are some new ideas out there when it comes to strength and conditioning. For instance, there's a guy by the name of Mark Rippetoe who's got a book, "Starting Strength" who makes a very persuasive case that barbell training is for everyone, not just muscle heads.

    Why, Molitor, why? Belisle? Really?
  6. Blake
    Manny Machado. At least make an offer.

    Rodgers is up? What?

    Astudillo makes Eddie Rosario positively patient at the plate. That ball was a long way inside, from what I saw.

    I think you're getting creative.

    Well, considering traffic in Chicago moves about as fast as bumper cars...

    So, late to the game, see the Twins are up, hit the way back machine to watch the second. Ain't technology grand?
  13. Blake
    Why?
  14. Blake
    Yep, there is something to be said about filling the pipeline with quantity. 14 players is a pretty good haul. May not produce any superstars but every single team needs players who do their job on a consistent basis.

    Fin.

    Looked like he landed fairly square on his back but, it looked like hips meeting the barricade might have been where things really hurt. Either way, ouch!

    In looking through the position player lineup at the newer acquisitions, is there anyone that may have a future with the Twins?

    Quite a few years ago, "The Who" came up with what was probably the first rock opera, which they wrote and recorded. "Tommy" was performed quite a few times until one day, Roger Daltry, at a live performance, said this was the last time "The Who" would perform "Tommy." At which point, the late late Keith Moon jumped up from behind his drum kit and hollered, "Thank God." I mention this, as this is my swan song for game threads this year. And, I expect the Twins Daily crowd is jumping up and collectively shouting, "Thank God!" Seriously, though, it's been a great ride and I hope I've been able to make a few people laugh. Or, at least politely clap. It's been fun and you've all been a great audience! Try the veal and tip your waitress!

    Late in a lost season and Molitor gets tossed? Really? So, yeah, embarrassing organization.
  21. Blake
    Cleveland really put the hurt on the Tigers. 15-0. Wow.
  22. Blake
    I'll try to get the lineups up in time. If not, hopefully, someone will pick up the slack. Thanks in advance!

    *Make of my selection what you will. Today is home project day at Che Blake: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ts9UONUMlCg *Tim "The Tool Man" for your home improvement tips. Make of this selection what you will. Swear, there's a theme in some where. So far, we have storms, destruction and improvement. Whatever could be the point of this exercise? *Yep, you guessed it, "Make of this what you will." Some observations from last night: 1. Never mind, that particular trip down memory lane is a bit too painful. 2. Good on the Twins for taking the lead. 3. Someone needs to go all Tonya Harding on Perez. Just kidding, great player, darn it. 4. Berrios went 6 and only gave up two. 5. Bad on the Twins for giving up the lead. Play Ball! Pitching: Twins: Chase De Jong Royals: Ian Kennedy
