  1. I have been in a parade like that. Fortunately we were just ahead of the stalled vehicle, and traveled the parade route not realizing no one was behind us the entire time. The route circled back to the parking lot at the start of the parade, and the upside is there was no crazy traffic to deal with as we left!
  2. August is easier to answer, seeing as we know more about our triple A prospects than we do the free agents we end up signing...
  3. I am a little unclear how this works as well. Apparently somehow there is a loophole that allows them to be moved off the 40 man roster without being passed through waivers which is only available at this time of year?
  4. Who does Roxy like in the free agent pitching market?
  5. Apparently this is not a contentious issue. Let Roxy speak for us all.
  6. I don't get likes on face book. Can you explain them to me? And has Roxy spent time with multiple organizations? Or is Roxy a one home dog?
  7. I think the Berrios trade did 2 things for the negotiation. It solidified the "no really, if an offer from another team is good enough, it will happen" stance, which at least will give pause to a "holding out for more just because you can" stance. But it also made the "sign to a big extension" budgeting easier. You can give Buxton a little more without having to factor in as much of Berrios deserves that too, and now he will expect it. Anyway, i don't think anything will happen until the CBA stuff resolves itself. Best get set for hibernation...
  8. Just to clarify... Are those $130 million american $ or canada $? Kudos to Berrios! And if the Twins are a silly team, i will still root for 'em!
  9. Wasn't it some sort of mutual option? Maybe Colome chose to leave... Then all would be right with the Twins, wouldn't it?
  10. Do they open the books for reservations that far in advance? One time someone told me to get reservations when they started taking them a year away from a wedding in a popular tourist place, i waited 6 months until the national park service opened their campsite reservations. I think i was the only one attending that wedding sleeping in a tent... Wonder if there is good camping near Cooper's town...
  11. Does this mean beat writers will have to go to Walmart for their shirts? Or will there suddenly be lots of shirtless people wandering around looking for something else to write about? (I suggest poetry. Try Haiku if you don't rhyme. It stands to reason) Also, kudos for bringing up the possibility of lockout or strike (not that i can tell the difference) due to the negotiations going south, and not in the Spring Training way. Not that i have read much news of late, but i haven't seen much coverage or posturing related to the up and coming collective bargaining agreement. How's it going?
  12. Did we ever find out what was in the box?
  13. A winning record so far this year? No wa?!!!!
  14. Eddie reintroduces MLB to the wonder of day games? Or they'll just move the World Series Braves home games to Colorado?
  15. If he is likely to offer any mentoring value, i'd be happy to have him. But that is just me. I still think he is a consummate pitcher. I enjoyed watching him in game 7 against the Nationals almost 2 years ago, where there was none of this "i'm hiding my grip in my glove as that could indicate what i am throwing." He used the same grip on every pitch. Anyway, we'll see soon enough where he goes...
  16. Was he there too? Didn't know he played for us...
  17. Is that 13 things to be disappointed by? We may have to change the subject line/title of the article...
  18. It's actually spelled gull-libel, stemming from published exaggerations of how seagulls will follow you anywhere expecting to be fed.
  19. I had a kneejerk reaction to #16 - Brent Rooker (Minnesota) - Did not play Rooker pinch hit for Cave in the...7th(?) got hit by a pitch, and was pinch run for by Simmons... Not a lot of action there either, but that is playing... almost. Anyway, sorry we got walked off! Good to know there is another game Thursday to set things right.
  20. But why not just intend to overthrow your target all the time by 20 feet? (hash tag - go to 11)
  21. Impressive! I am happy to see he seems to be improving this year.
