  1. I think the radio pkg is a great deal. I'm happy to pay the 20 bucks.
  2. Just a note from an admirer...if any of you out there want a place for excellent analysis...this is it. Do yourself a favor and check it out.
  3. walks ARE the fault of the pitcher. And I've been around a long time and never heard anyone say walks are worthless.
  4. Huh, it's ash, and it's not even Wednesday. A miricle!
  5. Why is that ok? One of the arguments would be that by being unwilling to alter his swing and/or approach, he is indeed refusing. Many here demand Dozier and Sano learn to "use the whole field." Learn to hit opposite field. Shouldn't the same apply in reverse? Shouldn't Mauer use the whole field? When the opposing outfield plays an exaggerated reverse shift, and shallow at that, I don't think your approach is optimal. Ditto when the opposing pitcher is confident you'll give him struck one. He's hit in RBI spots his entire career, but never driven in runs. Some are ok with that. I'm not.
  6. Thanks to the owners. And thank you to the friends I've made here. And thanks for the kind words. How's about you volunteer for a game thread or three?
  7. HBD, Fthreethree.
  8. Generally agree, except all walks aren't "good." Not all OBP is created equally. "Empty OBP" can be an accurate descriptor just as much as "empty batting average." Runs win games, not base runners. When Mauer refuses to attempt to drive in a run against a RH pitcher, leaving that job to a lesser RH hitter behind him, in the long run he's not helping win games.
  9. Dunno...but Van clearly is. ba-dum-tschhh
  10. No. I always make my small donation while in the pool.
  11. Here in Tucson we get a lot of news from south of the border. There was an interesting story today about a crazy Mexican train thief. They caught him, but couldn't convict him of the crime. They weren't able to find his locomotives.
  12. Hey...that was my time in the 400 relay!
  13. Watch it, pal. That palimony suit was settled out of court, and there's a gag order in place.
  14. What I love about Gladden is when Corey throws him a question, and Danny provides a 10 second answer...totally unrelated to the question.
  15. My track coach wouldn't listen to me either. I told him the 400 was a relay.
  16. What: "When I'm not playing second."
  17. http://stmedia.stimg.co/ctyp_farleylunchlady.jpg?w=1200&h=630 Maybe so, but lunch lady approves
  18. 1. Never, under any circumstances, let yourself be talked into taking a physics class. 2. In the impossibility that you did not follow the first of Newton's laws, make friends with the Asian kid. 3. Don't slide late. Did I get those correct?
  19. hypothetical...Detroit puts Cabrera on waivers. He's owed $184M over the 6 seasons following 2017, with two more $30M vesting options (based on MVP voting). Do the Twins put in a claim?
  20. See? I KNEW it would last!!
  21. I've come to learn, If you just go into any situation assuming whatever Brock says is false, life is much easier.
