    Oh, I wouldn't say I restrict myself to the game threads... That's a little basset right?--thanks again!
  2. Hosken Bombo Disco
    LOVE - THANKS!! I'm out before I say anything else stupid tonight
  3. Hosken Bombo Disco
    yeah why did this start out as a puppy-hating thread, anyway?
  4. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Robinson 9 pitch at bat, draws a walk? Not bad

    Following on MLB, and I am seeing things like: Pickoff attempt, Pickoff attempt, Pickoff attempt, wild pitch, runner to second. Uff da.

    About that, I do not know. For all his flaws, I do think Gardy has plenty of good selling points. He's loyal and personable. Good instincts. He knows the league. (I see him as an AL guy.) He can hit the ground running Day 1, as opposed to Ausmus, who sent text messages to Leyland last year during slumps. Depends on how serious Gardy is about adapting the hiring organization's ideas about the game, analytics, choosing pitching coach, etc. I think a lot of teams would be open minded about hiring a guy like Gardy, not all, but many.

    I accept your comment at face value. We should give Ervin Santana the rest of the season. If he performs, we should invite him to spring training next year. Otherwise, you're letting these types of guys divert attention/resources/whatever from other guys like Berrios and Meyer. For example, innings pitched in spring training. What would the Dodgers or Marlins do? (besides not sign them in the first place)
  8. Hosken Bombo Disco
    contract not even through this season. Through next season. You linked to this story about the Dodgers doing this with their bullpen. http://www.foxsports.com/mlb/just-a-bit-outside/story/los-angeles-dodgers-bullpen-joel-peralta-nicasio-garcia-baez-rodriguez-hatcher-liberatore-042215 Lots of people scoff when someone on these boards suggests DFA-ing Nolasco or Santana. Actually, not such a far-fetched idea!
  9. Hosken Bombo Disco
    All true perhaps, but I'm not going to underestimate him. The old-fashionedness comes from the organizational culture here, and wasn't just him. Gardy said in the press conference that he will manage again. That's a professional agency he hired. He'll be back.
  10. Hosken Bombo Disco
    you tell me
  11. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I bet Vargas is down to single digit plate appearances before he returns to Rochester. There are other guys who can DH who can use those PA. Also, add Oliveros back to the 25 man before he gets bored and frustrated like Meyer did.
  12. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Well said, JB. That's gotta be tender for a couple days and I wouldn't be surprised if he gets pushed back or misses a start. Though it's anybody's guess now how the Twins would shuffle their rotation if he does need time. Also some other good nuggets in that link.

    I only belch in D minor
  14. Hosken Bombo Disco
    LOL I'm sitting up STRAIGHT at my keyboard
  15. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Ok everyone put away your gifs, jokes and jinxes, and sit up straight at the keyboard, because we have a close ballgame again.
  16. Hosken Bombo Disco
    LOL
  17. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Mary Ann
  18. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I think glunn has bid the rest of us out of the market...
  19. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Let me guess... Your favorite Gilligan's island character was Thurston Howell III
  20. Hosken Bombo Disco
    not until he's in the field somewhere
  21. Hosken Bombo Disco
    yes, we are almost at that point.
  22. Hosken Bombo Disco
    (raises hand) Three years and a day, auctioneer!
  23. Hosken Bombo Disco
    You are talking about Mauer's beard again, right?
  24. Hosken Bombo Disco
    5 strikeouts in 3.1 innings, and an opposite field ground ball double to Nelson Cruz that scored the runs. Pretty damn good outing until the line drive off the right elbow.
  25. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Please, Terry, do not use this as an excuse to remove May from the rotation.
