  1. Dick: "Better chance he couldv'e caught that ball if he hadn't stumbled."
  2. Have a one night stand. A summer fling, even. But I don't recommend a big emotional commitment.
  3. BTW....shameless plug...we are looking for game thread vols for June 11 and 12. You know who you are. PM me.
  4. Interesting question...I wonder how many game ending DPs--without the ball being put in play--there have been in MLB history.
  5. I do remember Tim Salmon. And the Bass family...Randy, Dick, and Brian. Sid Bream. But I don't remember Lip Pike.
  6. Teams don't attack Park with off speed stuff. Why would they? He's seen a lot of that in Korea, and killed it. What he hasn't seen is a lot of big league velocity.
  7. I particularly agree with two points: - Too much reliance on top prospects - Trades haven't helped All the rest is either focusing on one player, or focusing on items that stem from the two above. You win with proven major league talent, perhaps supplemented with one or two young players, rather than the other way around. "Rebuild" is mostly a fan driven myth. . It's a damning statement that JJ Hardy was the last Twins trade for a player expected to assume a starting position player role. That's a long time.
  8. I had to miss last night's game. I see by the ol' internets the Twins won, again. It's getting old hat. Routine win, I assume? Predictable and a bit boring? Dominant pitching as usual?
  9. Frasier > Mary Tyler Moore?? You can NOT be serious!
  10. Almost 50 posts, and not a single mention of piranhas? Up your games, people.
  11. Was it...wait for it...raining? Oh good lord...I KILL me.
  12. So what you're sayin' is...a hard rain's a-gonna fall.
  13. There are few rules for game threads. Virtually nothing is off topic. Let the conversation flow, like rain water, down hill, to the gutter. But there is a limit. And I have the power to set it. So let it be known, henceforth and forevermore: NO MORE MENTIONS OF COLONOSCOPIES. EVER. Are we clear? ARE WE CLEAR? CRYSTAL??
  14. Nitpic: I believe it will be five out of six seasons with 90 losses (counting 2016), not six of seven. And...so far at least, yes. You are what your record says you are. And to date, they're historically bad. I don't think they maintain this pace, though.
  15. Again...lets try to keep this thread on topic please. I completely understand the wide ranging implications, and the desire to make this incident about the big picture...but it will get derailed if we do, so please don't. If someone wants to discuss the larger issue(s), maybe a thread about them in the appropriate forum would be the place. Here, lets keep this about the impact on the Minnesota Twins.
  16. Mod note: This is obviously important news for the team. But let's please stay away from turning this into a circus thread. Please keep to the subject of how this impacts the team, pitching-wise, and off the topic of how this might impact any individual. Thanks.
  17. According to the STrib, Twins pitching coach Neil Allen has been suspended by the club after being arrested early Thursday morning under suspicion of DWI. Minor league pitching coordinator Eric Rasmussen will temporarily take over as big league pitching coach. http://www.startribune.com/twins-suspend-pitching-coach-neil-allen-after-dui-arrest/381030231/
