you couldn't find a picture of Stevie Wonder? -
That's a heckofa strategy by the strategist. Put the struggling young pup who's o-fer-ahundred into the nine-hole

Good job Robinson
-
Robinson looks like a kid trying to swing an adult bat. Can Bruno help the guy pick out an appropriate size stick?
-
Nice play DanSan
-
is it too much to ask for both hitting and fielding from the same players?
-
70 beautiful degrees in the land of 8 month winters and no one is at the ballpark to see one of the leagues premier pitchers and hated arch rivals... Hmmm

so did I! My browser cut her off at the armpits, it wasn't until I scrolled up to see her face that I had an inkling

Gardenhire's Possible Landing Spots
Richie the Rally Goat commented on Cody Christie's blog entry in North Dakota Twins Fan
In 2016, the MN Twins after the management and coaching staff gets blown up? -
a portion of the defensive issues is caused by playing fielders out of position, and talent. Plouffe is a good third baseman, Mauer is a good first baseman. There are no options currently available better than they are, and they are both good hitters. Why change that? This team needs to improve by increasing quality of talent from the outside, not shuffling guys around more just 'cuz.

Sample Sizes: What Are They Good For? Absolutely Nothing.
Richie the Rally Goat commented on Twins and Losses's blog entry in Twins and Losses
Far too small of a sample size, but this team still needs to hit better, field better and pitch better to overcome the runs allowed to runs scored ratio. When you're last in the league in runs allowed, and second to last in the league in runs scored at the end of the season; you're going to be last in the league in winning percentage. -
i feel really guilty for liking this
-
i was on the Hicks needs to be in AAA for his development bandwagon (John Bonnes side), now I'm moving to the "best case scenario is platoon half or 4th outfielder so you might as well start now (Aaron Gleeman side). But there's still two horrible outfielders in Left and Right, even Byron "newly anointed baby Jesus" Buxton can't cover foul pole to foul pole. You need to have at least two competent fielders in the outfield.
-
how does moving Mauer to the outfield help the outfield? He's never shown the ability to play the outfield, and history of leg issues may indicate the outfield may not be a good choice since every play you are involved includes running. Just because you are subtracting a poor player from the field does it mean you are improving. Also, It would hurt the infield as he is a better first baseman than any of the other options, and Plouffe is a good to very good third baseman. Escobar would be a step up with the glove at SS, but a step down with range and arm, I think sticking with Santana at short in 2015, could make for a very good SS of the future if things go well. Since the minor league options aren't ready, and are still just prospects, trading Arcia or Vargas for a good fielding and decent hitting Left Fielder might be the best stop gap. Hunter would be my preference to go, but he's worth nothing and has a no trade clause, as if 10 mil wasn't enough to deter a trade.

Cheers?

katz has the best history, all the cool memoribilia, and the food is very good, but not my favorite, but a place you must visit while in NY.
-
very nice, I would also suggest pizza at Washington Square and 5th ave in Greenwich Village while you are in NY

ill have what she's having
-
that way you never have to pee next to strangers
-
thats exactly my point, how do you avoid peeing next to strangers unless you get to know them first
-
like the old joke about testing who really is mans best friend. His dog or his Wife...
-
licking strange women seems pretty achievable, avoiding peeing next to strange men seems rather difficult. Do you get into deep meaningful conversations with people every time you use the public restroom?
-
on more than one occasion have I been witness to women squatting over the trough in the Metrodome.... By the time it was your turn, you had to pee so bad, you didn't stop when she snickered

Article: When Is It Time To Take Action?
Richie the Rally Goat replied to Nick Nelson's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
i think you are right, but if you are going to teach infielders outfielding at the bigs, why not teach minor league outfielders hitting at the bigs? I think the bigger point and how the meme fits is, players out of position 30% of a 11 game old season, along with the big free agent bull pen acquisition only getting mop up or desperation duty, is an indication that this roster is in dire need of an overhaul. time to make some roster changes to put the right players in a place to succeed, so the biggest offseason acquisition, manager Paul Molitor, can also succeed, or stick to your guns and watch the whole FO and coaching staff get blown up in October- 113 replies
