  1. http://www.pettipond.com/laterimages/cancan/moulin_rouge_2006.jpg Better?
  2. I think it was done to reduce pressure on Buxton to produce in the lead-off spot. If he keeps hitting the way he has, bet this won't last very long.
  3. TWINS HOLD A LEAD !! TWINS HOLD A LEAD !! Had to get that off my chest.....
  4. now ya see? Twins scores. Clever deception by Plouffe
  5. Happy Happy Those are some splits for Conley

  7. Ok, who did the title of this Game Thread?? 5/7 @ 7:10pm? I thought people were re-commenting on a thread from last month.
  8. Ah, I was following this Forum for awhile. Then someone brought up ficus trees.
  9. I guess there is a little Eduardo Nunez in all of us. Darn it, let's all stand up. Amen!! I like everything about Nunez. Ok, the defense could be better But he's one of the reason's I keep watch the Twins. I like the way he's hitting this year, the energy he plays with and, yes, some of the comical plays he makes. Question: Is it a fair to compare BABIP from his previous years as a sub to this year as a full-time starter? Consistent repetitions can explain what we're seeing this year. I just don't follow BABIP enough to judge.
  10. Trading Plouffe and his $7 mil contract...... Padres traded James Shields to White Sox yesterday and sent along $29mil in cash. Yeah, it can be done
  11. I agree with you on Sano playing third. Earlier this year, Sano ran in on a slow roller and made a one-legged throw to 1st. If Sano's legs are do dainty, I would think that play would be a real hammy shredder. 1st/DH would seen like better alternatives. Mauer's contract is good through 2018, Park has an option year in 2020. And I don't have a problem trading Plouffe, either. Or practically anyone else. I think if Sano is comfortable at 3rd, OK. He's not going to be a great defensive guy. Offensively, big potential.
  12. A different article / new approach Buxton is using. Pretty interesting stuff. http://www.1500espn.com/twins-2/2016/06/new-approach-why-byron-buxton-is-visualizing-hits-to-the-second-baseman/ I didn't watch the entire game yesterday, but Buxton looked much better. It's not a leg kick, closer to a slide step. Doesn't matter; it's a timing mechanism. Wash, Rinse, Repeat ! Like this quote from Molitor: “Generally not too many hitters are going to be looking at the left field corner,” Molitor said. “It’s just not the way to hit. You’ve got to look out to where you just try to cover as many pitches as you can.” Sound like someone else we know with hitting issues?
  13. Maybe the players last name is Certain? Sneaky, sneaky TR
  14. Find a Charlie Brown image. Gotta be a hundred of them
  15. Everyone in the lineup had a hit tonight
  16. TWINS WIN TWINS WIN TWINS WIN Ok, that's enough
  17. Twins have 15 hits on the night? Breakthrough!!
  18. Arghhhhh..... http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/images/players/head_shot/448178.jpg
  19. Full-swing bunt by Mauer. Now THAT's what Buxton needs to learn
  20. ah, geez. Buxton has returned to the same old crap again. What he's learning at AAA just doesn't seem to be sticking.
