  1. who balances their checkbook anymore?
  2. Never. Gets. Old! I love this gif like I love great beer or wine.
  3. mike sixel 2:54 It's April. He's 23. He only has 500ish ABs in the majors, but when should we worry about Buxton if he isn't hitting well? Keith Law 2:55 I think you can worry about him now, given that he struck out a ton last year before September too. And if he starts to make more contact right now, I'd want to see him do it for a few weeks or months before thinking he's turned the corner.
  4. Greg 3:08 Is Soroka just a midrotation starter? #3? #4? He just keeps producing. Keith Law 3:08 Jose Berrios produced everywhere in the minors, and while I still think he'll be a good big league starter eventually, look at his MLB work to date.

  6. and I'm disappointed you knew an Adam Sandler reference. hell, I'm disappointed I know who Adam Sandler is....
  7. also this: Drew 2:24 Is Hunter Greene a generational talent or a good player who throws really hard. Keith Law 2:24 He's a lot more than a guy who "throws really hard."
  8. I love physics. Just can't picture equations in 3D, or I'd probably be a physicist right now. Oh, and math, that part was hardish also. And the esoteric advanced parts, over my head. But ya, pretty sure I could be a physicist right now...
  9. why is Sano out? did he try to steal? Lead off too much? Inquiring minds want to know.
  10. jjjjjjjooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnrrrrrrrrrrrroooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  11. Well, that bad feeling looks prescient...
  12. mike sixel 1:20 He's 23. It's April. He has 500 or so ABs at the MLB level....when is it ok for a Twins' fan to worry about Buxton? Oh, and I now live in walking distance of at least 6 breweries in Portland, gonna be a long year for my liver.... Eno Sarris 1:20 I don't think I've ever been in on Buxton. I've traded like four shares of him by now and don't regret a single one. Very capable defender that will be around forever and will have great streaks, but I doubt he has the ability to make enough contact to be a star. Jeff in Allston 1:29 Is Tyler Duffey's future home in the rotation or as a reliever? Eno Sarris 1:29 reliever imo Bart 1:33 what's your thoughts on Max Kepler? Eno Sarris 1:33 Love the fact that he's above-average in most tools, wish he hit the ball harder.
  13. It's a joke Alexa told me recently. they are all like that....
  14. so. much. to. love. in. this. post.
  15. What is this "platoon" thingy? Some kind of modern stats' head thing?
  16. Isn't this how Iron Man started? Apparently, violence is the answer to the world's many problems, not asylum from it, or spending on NATO, or the State Department (diplomacy is hard and expensive)....
  17. I got a bad feeling about Hughes vs a struggling Cabrera.....
  18. What did the mother tomato say to it's slow child? Ketchup.
  19. I wish more characters would die in films where superhumans are trying to kill each other and the world. The best part of the latest Avengers was them dealing with the aftermath of the attacks. Too often, half a major city is destroyed, and no one even notices the next movie....and it was the one redeeming part of B v S...
  20. I've never understood the negative connotation of "band wagon"....why should people pay attention to bad teams, buy tickets (give them money), and otherwise "support" them?
  21. I am worried he's getting what Berrios got last year, help from multiple corners, offering different advice. If I ran the team, I'd find the right hitting coach to work with Byron every single day, maybe that coach gets two work with 1 other player. I'd make sure that coach also specializes in the mental aspects of sports.....
  22. I LOVE that you posted this, I'll get to watch it later. Thank you.
  23. Just to be clear, we are giving Harold Reynolds compliments? I've never thought he kept his eye on the ball, but I only get to see bits and pieces. to me, Buxton is like the golfer always changing things, trying to find something that works. And, always looking up to see where the ball went, instead of staring at the back of the ball. I thought those two things were so obvious they didn't need saying, frankly.
  24. My current guess is that he'll got to LAD or NYY, and they'll sign him to huge dollars pretty quickly, and the commissioner will throw up his hands and say the rules aren't clear, so he can't punish them. Otani gets fair money, MLB gets a huge international star in a huge media market, everyone* gets what they want. *yes, even the smaller teams, who see more viewers in Japan and more value to all the teams over time.
  25. Blocked at work, what's it say?
