  1. C’mon Odo. Roll one now. You can get out of this.
  2. Looks like a line drive in the box score, baby!
  3. We’re a simple crowd. There needs to be a belly laugh. Or at least a guffaw.
  4. When you’re done getting off Chief’s lawn... then GET OFF MY LAWN next!!!
  5. Didn’t have to leap much, but ball did seem bomba-bound
  6. gameday says “singles on a pop up to SS” Must have been exciting!
  7. aaaaaaannndd... we don’t shout “Fire!” in a crowded movie theater?
  8. Buxton is back with the team in Chicago, as of today. Doesn’t mean he’ll be on the field imminently, but he’s with the team doing Twins things again.
  9. It's almost like I heard people talking about announcers and had to come join the party.
  10. I would use a pitcher to PR, I just don't know how fast or athletic our pitchers are. I think I would trust Gibson or Berrios to not trip over their shoelaces or need oxygen after a 90 foot sprint, but not sure.
  11. Honestly my preference is to just leave Sano at third and in the lineup. Unless there is a clear situation where he could be pinch run for, like the bottom of the 9th, tie game, one or two outs, singles hitter coming up. It depends.
  12. I agree with the second part, about Adrianza being more valuable than a 13th pitcher. But I agree with the poster above, that Adrianza is only marginally faster than Sano, and not so much faster that you would automatically make that substitution in a spot like that.
  13. Adrianza is just not that fast. That’s the problem.
  14. If Houston/NY do not have those left handed bats, then I think you see Smeltzer left off, and a surprise add like Alcala or Graterol. That would be fun, as no one on either Houston or NY has seen either of those guys. Another good point you made is having a fast pinch runner on the bench, just in case. KC was able to roster Terrance Gore. I thought the Twins signed a minor league guy who could fill that role, but I don’t know how much you trust a guy like that, who has never played a down. Maybe theSeptember call ups will enlighten us. I also think Astudillo makes it. No turtle? C’mon! However, carrying all three of Schoop, Arráez and Adrianza feels... inefficient? This will be very interesting and very fun (knock on wood).
  15. This exchange was right after Texas clinched the 2011 ALCS in Game 6. FOX Interviewer: Ron Washington, aren't you happy you didn't have to pitch to Nelson Cruz this series? Washington: I was very happy. But if I did, I probably would have thrown him breaking balls! Be warned, you will have to forward to the 3 hour, 55 minute mark to get the quote https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFj7t2IXx9M
  16. File that double under: “a good throw gets him”
