  1. I don't know what they will do, all I know is that last year, they kept Pelfrey around, even though they owed him less money. That may or may not indicate what we can expect this year. I hope he wins the Cy Young, and leads the Twins to the WS championship, but I wouldn't bet on it.
  2. I gotta say, I agree. You have no right to watch a privately funded event w/o paying, no matter how outrageous the price may be. It is a constant struggle with certain younger people I know.....
  3. 80.5 is right around .500......
  4. I hate that in movies and tv shows....someone knows something, but instead of just telling them the SUPER IMPORTANT THING, they tell them they know something.......it's just stupid.
  5. I think the point is, how is Allen going to teach all these young guys the changeup, if they are all in AAA, and a bunch of veterans are in MN?
  6. I find it easier to just stop watching sports, and tv, in general. Too many things to do.
  7. I don't know, I think that Sano guy might be good. thanks Bill Smith* *in case you missed it, that's a meme on a meme....
  8. I share the concern above, that some of the players might be "meh", but not awful, and will stay on the 25 man, blocking guys with much higher upside (that might not produce much better this year, but could).
  9. I like this roster a lot more than last year's opening day roster. The team is definitely trending in the correct direction.
  10. I'm talking about last year, in the majors.....
  11. Or maybe Duffey should go back to the bullpen, where two pitches works....though his 2 and 4 seamers are really two different pitches, imo......I don't know, but I hope they make the decision some time this year, because he's not young.
  12. Agreed, this is my favorite site on the internet right now. Thank you all.
  13. Here you go, Twins' coverage.... http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/tyler-duffey-on-his-more-than-two-pitch-repertoire/ I thought some of this was already covered there, but maybe not all of it.
  14. Tough to predict anyone but Trout winning it, but I think the Astros are in the AL now, right? They have a darn good SS that I'd say has at least as good a shot as Sano does. And Machado. I'd put Sano's odds at about 3-5% this year.
  15. My wife and I are about to open a window treatment business, in a city we don't yet live in, with no experience in the field! yay for being broke for a while! Well, she will do that, I'll keep my super fun corporate job for a while, so we have money and insurance.
  16. I only picked up a guitar for the first time 3 years ago or so, and am teaching myself, and have zero innate musical ability........it's been a real challenge. Oh, and I am a terrible singer too. And yet my super musical wife still likes me, so that's nice.
  17. the drop in Ks is definitely an encourage sign. I think, maybe, he might be realizing he's aging, and that he has to change his approach. We'll know by June, I'd think.
  18. BTW, I would say it is an exaggeration to say I learned the whole song, or that I even played it well......
  19. Under, and clever to hide it in the minor league section of the site........
  20. So, comcast. the largest supplier in the Twin Cities is excluded. Got it. Sounds like a real, legit, service then......
  21. Damn vanimal is old before his time (I know I already said that, old people repeat stuff, get over it). Picking songs is hard for me, I can never remember their names. Mayor of Simpleton by XTC is my favorite love song. I learned it on guitar last year as a surprise for my wife. Other than that, I'll have to give it some thought.
  22. 31 steals? His success rate has been pretty bad.....you all think he'll improve that? You think he'll be on base enough to even get that many opportunities? I am going with the under on Seth's projections, I am Missouri on this player right now.
  23. Interesting, thanks. Maybe we'll go after all.....still need to see deadpool.
  24. Ya, a great throw? He's supposed to be one of the fastest guys in the league.....this was a problem last year also, was it not?
