  1. Let's say Toledo. For some reason i always want to think it is also a dish of Mexican cuisine, like a Tamale. So the notion it is electrified to the point of spicy seems like validation on all fronts. And i for one don't want to discourage these hopes and dreams. I hope and dream it becomes a viable source of green energy, and we save the ecosystem.
  2. Can i play, then? Would i get paid? And what's to stop the players from just taking their roles? No strike has been called after all.
  3. The what-if game is hard to play well. If they had taken the 50% of revenue part of the deal, revenue might have been diverted through other entities not strictly part of the club. And it is also possible that steroid testing may have been unacceptably implemented, and a destructive legal battle ensued? But thanks for the summary of those times. I wasn't paying too close attention when it all went down. A friend played a podcast for me recently about the Hormel strike in the 80s. Yeah, being in elementary school and roughly an hour away, i heard of it, but didn't notice any effects directly in my situation.
  4. Remind me, how many All Star 3rd basemen we have had over the years. I don't know...
  5. Yeah, i liked Guzman too, and fondly remember triples. I am glad you featured his triples. Nothing better than a triple feature...
  6. Maybe you just haven't met the right one(s)? What was your first point again?
  7. I remember Mr. Granite battling his tail off for us. And no one can take that away. Thanks for reminding me of him!
  8. Just so long as no one starts shortselling Royce Lewis, i'm fine. And if anyone does, i will be watching so as to get in on the next gamestop situation. (as nicknames, go perhaps that would be more appropriate for a closer, but i could live with it)
  9. Even after all these years, i would have a hard time picking David Ortiz over Matthew LeCroy. And as there isn't yet one of these articles about Big Pappi, it would seem Mr. Stu concurs? Any thanks for writing, and pass me some of that xmas possum!
  10. Maybe we should have traded for Naughtius Maximus instead?
  11. An i dotting coach? A t crossing coach? And the peas and cues minding coach has an essential role. But then... who coaches the coaches? Levity aside, welcome aboard, luis and hank!
  12. Hurray for exceeding expectations by the slimmest possible margin!
  13. Well, lost last 3 games, but they are still better than normal...
  14. I am rooting for him to make it into the hall.
  15. I'd settle for a pitcher better than other team's batters...
  16. 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!
  17. 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...
  18. 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?
  19. Who does Roxy like in the free agent pitching market?
  20. Apparently this is not a contentious issue. Let Roxy speak for us all.
  21. 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?
  22. 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...
  23. 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!
