  1. whenever the ChiSox #9 hitter strikesout, do Chicago fans scream "AW, Shuck's! " ??
  2. Kurt Suzuki: The Hawaiian Hammer! yeah, that didn't work out...
  3. aaaand back to the ball game Has Gibson stopped using a sinkerball? The pregame show and the broadcast make no mention of it.
  4. Ole and Lena got married. On their honeymoon trip they were nearing Minneapolis when Ole put his hand on Lena's knee. Giggling, Lena said, "Ole, you can go a little farder now if ya vant to" ... so Ole drove to Duluth.
  5. He'd be the one wearing a mask Edit: one of the guys wearing a mask. Always gotta keep an eye on them catchers, too
  6. omg, Ole and Lena jokes. Twins Daily, you've hit a new low. Do better. I'm sure you can get lower.....
  7. I take the time to give them a good, proper, berating. Then I add them to my "Blocked Caller" list.
  8. I'm curious of the 5/10 rule, as well. From Wikipedia [yeah, kinda lazy this morning] "5/10 Rule whereby players who have been with a club for 5 consecutive years and have been a major league player for 10 years cannot be traded without their consent." How about exposed to Expansion Draft? Why would an Expansion Team select Mauer? Veteran presence with only 2 (?) years left on contract? Edit: Adding that, from the expansion team perspective, I personally wouldn't do this. I'd go after all the young prospect I could corral.
  9. What would happen with another Expansion Draft? Owners would get fatter.....
  10. " Uff Da ". Thought I trademarked that phrase. Jeezzz. gotta call ol' J. Noble Dagget.....
  11. Uff da, that's a tough one. Well, you could market Buxton on prospect status, recent stellar performance at AAA and youth. Maybe a couple prospects in return?
  12. No. And at his stage of development, nobody should. I keep pointing back to the Strib article about the Red Sox letting your players develop: http://www.startribune.com/phil-miller-s-sunday-insider-red-sox-show-how-patience-with-prospects-can-be-rewarded/383534181/ This is what the Twins should be doing with Buxton. I actually got to see Bradley Jr. playing in those days. My god he was awful.
  13. http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mamcxpOpgk1qddgvl.gifCouldn't figure out how to change that to Byung-holio....
  14. I brought it up because the recent lineup moves have pointed at Sano at least getting some time at 3B. Plouffe playing 1st and DH, Kepler looking better in RF and at plate and Park not doing all that well recently (gulp)
  15. Bentance can be had. Just make him think. Swinging at the 1st pitch doesn't do it.
  16. so what will May's rehab look like? Starter or reliever?
  17. Sano playing 5 innings at 3B in rehab. Nice.
  18. with the camera being off center, it's a little hard to tell for sure, but I think that Home Plate ump is hosing Twins pitchers.
