    Gave it a "sad" face, because my name ought to be IowaTwin. I've only lived in Indiana for 35 years. I've been (and still am) an Iowan my whole life. Long live breaded tenderloins.

    Yes to Teflon for naming the Negro League Basball Museum. It is outstanding. Aside from Cooperstown itself for its magnitude, I can’t think of a better non-stadium baseball experience that I’ve had. A few years ago, my wife and I did a Kansas City barbecue tour. Stops at five different restaurants, with ribs and something else at each, along with a stop at a manufacturer that specializes in small batches of sauce for people trying to get their sauce marketed. I don’t drink, but I suppose it would capture the analogy to call it a “craft saucery.” Along the way, our tour guides gave us a documentary style review of both Kansas City and barbecue history. The tour was a bit pricey, as I recall, but when one considers I didn’t need to eat for another four days…

    Sorry, folks -- joining late. How was Singer? I'm guessing sew-sew. Did he have a tough time threading the needle?

    I’m grateful the Orioles didn’t do an outline for Garver’s injury the way they did for Reafanyder.

    It’s 26+5+9=40 starts, actually, in one full season plus 60 games plus 57 games. That’s really 1.7 seasons of team games at this point. The suspension kept him out, but he’s been healthy otherwise. He’s only missed four or five total starts when he’s been eligible, and never more than 13 days between starts. Put another way, he’s made 40 starts in the 219 team games he’s been eligible, which works out to 30 starts per 162.

    See -- this way we don't have to worry about whether Jorge can get RISPy!!
  7. IndianaTwin
    Why be RISPy, when you've got Refsy?

    According to the radio guys, it was Rortvedt's arm that got him the callup with Kansas City's proclivity for running.

    Look, kids. Big Ben!!!

    Donaldson's run in the first has been declared the 2,000,000 run in MLB history. I wonder if he'll get 2,000,000 pennies and if the Boy and Girl Scouts will get to split 2,000,000 Tootsie Rolls.

    The latest from Yogi Gladden, this time when talking about pitchers, "If you're at 90-91 and command, you're going to hit your spots. And there's a high velacity (sic) fastball."
  12. IndianaTwin
    Yes

    I've only been somewhat facetious in saying, "Eliminate batting gloves." With no gloves to fiddle with, stepping out of the box wouldn't be any fun. As I watched games from the '60s and '70s being replayed on MLB Network all winter, that was the single thing that stood out the most as a difference compared to today's games. (Followed next by the immediate chucking aside of any ball that had hit the dirt.)

    It's rarely as simple as Choice A vs. Choice B. For example, what impact did having an extra $7.5 million have in their ability to sign Cruz a week later? If signing Semien meant settling for Jay Bruce as the DH, it's a much different team.

    Back dated several days, I presume? So basically out for just seven more days as a minimum rather than 10, right?
  16. IndianaTwin
    We're No. 13!

    I'd be glad to have Refsnyder's season end like Hurricane's did.
  18. IndianaTwin
    Don't think so -- the ears on the second one are much bigger and a little more pointed.
  19. IndianaTwin
    I thought it was, "Who lives in a pineapple under the sea?"

    Did a little math (I know -- don't) and determined that it would take just over 10 Baltimore shortstops to make a Galvis ton.
  21. IndianaTwin
    Are you referring to Severino's popup? Radio guys described it as intentional to try getting the double play. At the least, it meant having a catcher on first rather than Mountcastle.
  22. IndianaTwin
    Maybe Max could give some lessons.

    Gladden: That hit him on the knuckle bone on his wrist. Um...
  24. IndianaTwin
    Plesac to the IL. Broke his right thumb. Dude -- when you're angry, rip off your shirt with your non-throwing hand.

    Doesn't fruit go bad when you leave it laying out that long?
