  1. Maybe it's just because they wanna.
  2. What that means to me is, if he's not one of those 5-7 really, really good ones, then he's not really worth very much. He'd be in the "everyone else" group, which doesn't do a whole lot for your team, and isn't particularly hard to find in trade or free agency. He'd be cheap, though, for a while, which is worth something, if you use the savings elsewhere. That said, I wouldn't be in favor of trading Gordon for Verlander, and I don't think it takes that much. It'd mostly take money....which I admit is easy for me to spend (since it's not mine), but which I think it's fair to say the Twins have and can spend.
  3. http://twinsdaily.com/topic/26198-official-scoring-questions-for-stew/page-3 Ashbury has taken the time to look up the applicable instructions to official scorers. Believe it or not, this is covered. And it's a single.
  4. That's a fair point, probably true. I'll concede it, but also suggest that may be more a publicity issue than a popularity one. But overall, I believe the exceptions prove the rule.
  5. Not everyone believes Jeter's GGs where entirely undeserved. He was a good, reliable SS. Always in the right place, never made the wrong play, strong and accurate arm, not prone to errors. Range challenged but not to the extent of current urban legend.
  6. Darvish will get more than 5 years, at more than $20M per year. 6/$150, minimum. In any case, he hasn't been much, if any, better than Verlander over the past couple years. He's younger, for sure.
  7. And counting on internal options to improve in 2018 is the biggest risk of all.
  8. Just because there was one egregious award given in 1999, doesn't mean it was a popularity contest then, either.
  9. Still a couple days left in August to supplement, Falvine...
  10. Fingers crossed...
  11. Mrs Chief just canceled the ambulance here in Tucson.
  12. http://img.sndimg.com/food/image/upload/h_465,w_620,c_fit/v1/img/recipes/77/82/0/picauu2NL.jpg WINNAH!
  13. He could help himself by not sucking.
  14. If we shift on Abreu, he's oh-fer tonight.
  15. Mauer slow to make a decision, Belisle slow to the bag.
  16. Yeah, but he won't be so abnormally efficient against big league hitters.
  17. http://notesbetweenthelines.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/McBain-Standup-Meme.jpg
  18. We traded Kintzler, Buxton is taking over baseball, Big Sexy is indeed big, and Mauer can't hit to right.
  19. Not really sure why Ervin is still pitching with 2 on, nobody out in the 7th.
  20. Close. "Dunno. I'm a big metal fan, though."
