  1. I heard a tale of two race car drivers, and one said to the other "let's make it exciting, i'll go 60mph the whole way, and you go 30mph for the first half, and then go tearing the rest of the way and catch me right at the end" Time to go tearing through the standings!
  2. I know it shouldn't be a consideration, but huzzah for Nellie, as the Twins player best at resting, so hopefully least affected by not getting to rest through the all-star break. Still holding out hope for the improbable run...
  3. So the moral of this story... In the upcoming draft, we should select relatives of famous artists to give our media folk more to work with. Hadn't we appeased them when Garlick made the team?
  4. Valid question http://www.anotherwaytheatre.co.uk/gulliver.html What's England's equivalent to Broadway? Not sure how far this has to go...
  5. Did they use shot back then? I imagine it wouldn't be sporting to duel with shot.
  6. All depends how you look at it. They split a two game series Thursday-Friday, then they won a one game series Sunday. Or maybe not playing is obviously not winning, so they split the four game series? That has one yet to be made up? Whatever. Confusing, and i certainly didn't help. Just glad we won.
  7. Tsk. Tsk. Space debris has no guidance system. I think someone is mixing up cause and effect here. To paraphrase Count Rugen, Buxton's over-developed sense of fielding is going to get him into trouble some day. And tell me, who else could run down a meteor before it became a meteorite? (amirite?) (And just how did Vicini sign both Inego and Fezzig on the free agent market?! We should be taking notes!)
  8. Was Hrbek really a spokesperson for Taco Johns? I feel vindicated by his endorsement of my hithertofore guilty affinity for that fastfood chain. My folks had a plastic "25th anniversary" (of Taco and Johns, i presume) cup that i used whenever possible, until it cracked. Nowadays they use waxed paper cups, which will fail quickly and catastrophically on reuse.... As to the actual article... I always thought that saying a pitch had mustard on it was purely figurative. I am torn between my vehement support of condiments, andthe simple fact that pitchers shouldn't be eating on the mound. What says the new policy about gum? I mean batters can chew, why not pitchers?
  9. Thanks for the post! Does that mean PoSox are no longer? Man, i'm no good at following news...
  10. With our luck, the next "free" injury will be a cheap fix anyway. Like a Player for the MTV, maybe get a blister on your middle finger. Maybe get a blister on your thumb?
  11. Wait... the season lost? (Well, where'd you last see it? Backtrack from there.) Oh ye of little faith! I got two words: Bux Ton.
  12. After yesterday.... Maybe they're onto something?
  13. I think batters are hogging it all. Rumer has it Sano claim a whole jug that he won't let anyone near.
  14. It was about a half an hour. But it felt longer...
  15. Sorry for being slowto comment here, but of course i'm pulling for Nick too! Alas, i hope i'm not bad luck, as the last minor league game i made it to was the one against Pawtucket where he got injured. So yeah,i figure i owe him some good luck this time.
  16. What does Wichita State have to do with this?
  17. Meh. It is but one loss. Counts no more than the 8-0 loss the day before. Wait... in emphatically counts less, as that was 2 games. Some day, we shall hit lefties again.
  18. You are wise behind your ears!
  19. Maybe not literally winning the triple crown as others have more home runs, runs batted in, and at bats. And he is neither a horse nor a jockey for that matter, so isn't he winning that triple crown either. But he is playing his heart out, knocking the snot out of the ball, and avoiding the actual DL (knock on wood) so he's winning my tertiatary definition of a triple crown. And i look forward to checking in at the quarter season markers to see how he is fairing against the triple crown field...
  20. I hope he finds his way to the majors sometime this summer. His a favorite of mine for his first two starts if nothing else. Also 1 for 1 batting record in the majors!
  21. I don't suppose there is news as to plans for any upcoming games yet?
  22. And to be totally fair, not watching just leaves more time to post online, as well as less relevence, due to ignorance of happenings. I've fallen into that pit before.
  23. They say the decision was made "after consultation with Major League Baseball, and local and state officials." Look no further for a cause of delay, as they all are busy people.
