  1. Trust me, Terry is going nowhere. Or not
  2. Thanks for the info, Mike! While I understand the skepticism, I have to ask how much FG's Cameron has seen of Buxton lately? Yes, I'm talking about the godforsaken idea of the EyeBall Test. Buxton is starting to make more contact. And stats over the last 14 days [8 games, 29 PA's] also bears that out.
  3. I'm reading that "replays showed that Escobar appeared to taunt Timmons by drawing something in the infield dirt." and "So, Yunel Escobar was ejected for drawing a home plate in the dirt behind third base to instruct the umpires, which, wow." Escobar may have thought it funny, but taunting a HomePlate Ump on a controversial check swing is not a good idea.
  4. On is day in history, Oswaldo Arcia is still in Tampa Bay....
  5. The Twins 2016 redo is in full motion now, with the exception of the starting staff. That's only kinda started. And anyway you look at it, more work needs to be done. Sano and Kepler have been fun to what, but the stats of both say more work needs to be done. Buxton is making progress, but still learning. Same with Rosaio. BA-wise, Nunez and Suzuki are 1-2. The bullpen is finally getting some rest, but improvement still needed. IMHO: help is available via MiLB. Starting Pitching? The Milone experience should be over and Berrios brought up. What to do with Nolasco? E. Santana could be the 1 tradeable starter. I'm not all that up on the real potential of the other MiLB starters. Hmm, guess I'm somewhere between 38 and 27 wins. Probably leaning towards 35 as the young players get more MLB development time.
  6. Twins have won 3 series in a row? Where the heck have I been?
  7. I'm guessing 2 moves after the All Star Break: Milone and Ramirez out, Berrios and Chargois up.
  8. As good of an excuse as I've ever heard.
  9. Ramirez clearing the way for JT
  10. That's OK, Ramirez. We've already got a replacement for you.
  11. Yep, Ranger's have really stunk this inning...
  12. Vargas: 1 HR and 3 BB on the day!
  13. Per Baseball Reference: Shlabotnik was demoted to the minors after having a .004 batting average over an entire season; his one hit was a bloop single with his team comfortably ahead. His greatest achievements included making spectacular plays on routine fly balls and throwing out a runner who had fallen down between first and second. After being sent down to the Green Grass League (a bush league), Shlabotnik retired as a player and agreed to manage the Waffletown Syrups. Sadly, he was fired after only one game, after calling for a squeeze play ... with no one on base.
  14. damn, this has turned into a good, old fashion ass-whooping
  15. Suzuki now hitting .296 http://worldartsme.com/images/happy-dance-clipart-1.jpg
  16. Ok, Rosario, get all the BS outta the way and hit a homer!
  17. With Vargas bearing down on him, Odor couldn't see 1st to make a throw
  18. Milone needs a break. Four days off for the All-Star break might help. Can it start now?
  19. welp, quick moves will do that do ya...
  20. Vargas really working the count!
