  1. Nope, just power through that nausea, on the other side it becomes hilarity
  2. Thielbar coming in Never mind, Thielbar sitting down, Stashak warming
  3. Cmon Archer! You don’t need to go back on the highway… I’m really ok with a boring 1-2-3
  4. Nope, with Ober on the IL, he’s in the rotation. Maybe Sands
  5. That was my question, thanks for answering it before I asked
  6. Just a little stitious I am now jealous and need to get my own Richie figurine
  7. Chemistry is literally ingredients, tools and process. Good process for chemistry is built on the scientific method, to isolate changes in the process or ingredients to differentiate effects and documentation appropriately. it seems the Twins have taken a similar approach. The ingredients: players, coaches, team management. They have a good cocktail of ingredients. Tools and Process: communication, culture, practices/drills, rest, rhythms and patterns in the clubhouse. The combination of ingredients, tools and process is the recipe, just like baking a cake. Process and ingredients work together. If you take out your eggs, crack them, and then take out your bowl, you just threw your eggs on the floor and wrecked the cake. Conversely, you can bake a cake all day long, but if you don’t have a leavening agent it won’t rise. Process without ingredients, ingredients without process, either makes for a bad cake. and so work place chemistry, team chemistry is very similar. The right people, right tools, right process, makes for a high performing team. Outcomes can be external, if the flour delivery truck delivers late it breaks down the chemistry, but that normalizes over time (and why we carry safety stock/strong bench) edit to add: unlike literal ingredients to chemistry reactions, people don’t come with specification documentation and certificates of lot conformance. Sometimes you have to adjust process, and sometimes you have to adjust ingredients to get the right chemical reaction
  8. Agreed, though would tweak this a bit. I don’t think we should expect him to be this unstoppable force of pitching like he has been. He just needs to consistently deliver that 3.5 ERA and limit the big innings. I do hope that the outcomes stabilize, this Jekyl and Hyde bit is tough on my constitution.
  9. 8 in a row is not to be. tomorrow a new winning streak to start
  10. Bundy’s ERA keeps climbing… early season is such a roller coaster
  11. In this series’ installment of Shopping with the Enemy, we explore the obvious. when in Florida, you go to the beach, right? Right. here we have a lovely Tampa Bay Rays beach towel and then we have 57 varieties of the same sandals that’s it, they try to classify an office set and a yard flag as swim wear with a whole section devoted to swim wear, there’s no bathing suits, no beach balls, no beach umbrellas… file this under disappointment
  12. Mod note: @RpR @jmlease1 @wabene @Schmoeman5 quit bickering and accusing each other of trolling. knock it off
  13. PSA: Come join us in the game threads, it’s loads of fun!
