    Good catching me on that. Maybe he doesn't have a documented history but that is certainly my impression of him from following ballgames since he got here. I want pitchers who want to take the ball, or take the post, as Ryan likes to say in interviews. I think the OP made a pretty strong case that this is a trend with Hughes and that it's on the Twins to determine how he can help us win games. Class Act for turning down the bonus. If sacrificing that 1/3 inning was part of the consideration for the Twins offering him that big extension, I'd say he came out ahead.

    I heard that Hughes told the coaches he was getting a little fatigued and that they should keep an eye on him. Getting fatigued after 6 innings and 70 pitches is worrisome no matter how you slice it. Maybe just one night, maybe not. He also has a history of not wanting to stay in games, which would be another concern.

    Maybe this is just groupthink. Plus, if Polanco can't stick at short, then why is he around at all. It will be the Plouffe/Sano situation all over again, since Dozier's got second locked up and Escobar and Nunez can also fill in there. Polanco can play short until the fans see that he can't--that's the position I'm taking Polanco had a half dozen chances tonight and did fine. One of them was a highlight reel play.

    Seth, I think MLB would have to change their rules about # of fielders allowed on the field to accommodate all the players you want to play. Polanco did not need to be demoted to play full time, in my opinion. He could just as easily have been moved around here with the Twins and played everyday, even while keeping Numez's bat in the lineup while Escobar was on the DL. And in all his callups the past few years Polanco has not really looked overmatched at the plate. We missed a nice opportunity to get him in the line up every day to see what he could do.
  5. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I think that line is taken?
  6. Hosken Bombo Disco
    ummm......
  7. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Yes. Any other questions?
  8. Hosken Bombo Disco
    But laughing with him, not at him?
  9. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Please Twins. Do not let Detroit come back from this! Wait, what?
  10. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I'd rather read one you make up
  11. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Me too at 8-2.. guessing it's safe to come back??
  12. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Dick already won yesterday's thread if I recall, so no.
  13. Hosken Bombo Disco
    What business is it of yours?
  14. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I remember a game when I was a tyke and there was a manual scoreboard but only had numbers 0-9. Well one team scored an ungodly number of runs in the first inning, and then a couple innings later the game was in the 30s, and one of the rows just had 999's across it even though most of the runs were in one inning. Except they probably ran out of 9's too. My memory is slightly imperfect. This has been your "Good Times, Good Times" moment
  15. Hosken Bombo Disco
    NOPE
  16. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I like it!
  17. Hosken Bombo Disco
    The meter and rhythm is a little off.....
  18. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I was kind of hoping for a 10-spot, just to throw off all the inning frame formatting
  19. Hosken Bombo Disco
    when the leadoff hitter gets two RBI in the first inning
  20. Hosken Bombo Disco
    good info, thanks
  21. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I'm more interesting in hearing what happened with Berrios than throwing tomatoes at him. Was he wild? Maybe Centeno could catch him? How do the Twins prepare these guys for these starts? Reminds me of the May start a couple years ago. Berrios is young but it's not like he's 17. I'm not in a rush to get back around to Hughes and Nolasco.
  22. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Unsustainable.

    At some point in there, Butch snuck back in and recovered his grandpa's watch from the Kangaroo lamp and snuck back out. You didn't even notice him!
  24. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Bush made his MLB debut tonight in the top of the 9th inning of a blowout loss. He faced Josh Donaldson, Jose Bautista, and Edwin Encarnacion. He got a called strike three, an infield pop, and another infield pop. Not bad.

    speak for yourself..... (Still watching it) EDIT: ninja'd by you
