    If he were 6' 2" instead of 5' 9" he'd probably draw fewer walks. Fixed it for both of you.

    Heavens no, sorry I wasn't more clear on that. The last thing Molitor needs is another reliever he can't use except when the game has been decided. I'd stick him in the pen in Rochester, ask him to come on for an inning or two at a time, forget mechanics, third pitches, pitch counts, innings, etc, and just try to blow people away with fastballs and an occasional slider or two. Let him simplify, hopefully experience some success, and then reassess. If he is good at it, bring him up at some point in the big league pen. A dominant RH reliever would really help the Twins. If not, reassess. Maybe at some point let him stretch out and try starting again. But I don't see the progress necessary. Why keep trying to force a square peg into a round hole?

    Fabulous, Chitown! Happy Mother's Day to every mom out there, including mine, may she rest in the peace she earned many times over. Enjoy the game everyone!

    I would make damn sure I have two third basemen before I did something rash and ended up with none.

    I think it's time to put him in the pen.

    I'm not calling anyone an idiot Dave. Or more accurately, I'm saying we all sometimes look like idiots when the subject is baseball. I liked the Nolasco signing, and thought Kubel was a nice pickup last year. That's one reason I love it.

    All true, except I disagree about the "beating up on bad teams" part. They've played Detroit 6 times, and KC 6 times. Neither of those are bad teams, and except for the opening series, the Twins have held their own. They've played Chicago 7. Certainly the White Sox have played poorly, but they have some talent. Part of the reason their record is bad is due to the Twins. Cleveland 5 times. I didn't buy it personally, still don't, but they were SI's pick to win the WS. Seattle and Oakland 7 times. Both were picked in various places to be postseason teams this year. The Twins may be a mirage, but so far I don't think it's due to facing poor competition.

    Somehow, we have to come up with a TD Thread Hall of Fame. And this thread needs to be the first inducted. An inner circle HOFer. Just to remind us all, it's baseball, and there are probabilities, possibilities, and unlikihoods. But there are no guarantees. Players sometimes don't follow the probabilites, possibilities, or unliklihoods.

    Note for owners: Are we paying by the word? serious note: awesome, Ash. Awesome.

    Plenty of opportunities for folks to volunteer for upcoming game threads, by the way. My inbox is open.

    It's Grand Forks. Just HAVING an indoor bath is probably a big deal.
  14. USAFChief
    ftfy.
  15. USAFChief
    nope, no rules violated. Everyone is welcome at T.D. even Iowegians.
  16. USAFChief
    yes.

    I was just testing my fellow posters to see who knew of this feature. You passed with flying colors. Good job!
  18. USAFChief
    can't like on phone, but "like."
  19. USAFChief
    I resent this post! my integrity is not cheaply purchased.
  20. USAFChief
    that TR...quite the bargain shopper! He got it at a $2M discount.
  21. USAFChief
    so it truly wasn't your father's Oldsmobile.

    I'm sure my fellow USAF veterens will back me up when I say Im confident the world's finest air force stands ready to vigorously defend any piece of American territory that has sunny beaches, fine hotels, great golf courses and copious amounts of good rum.
  23. USAFChief
    I can't answer, Pseudo, because I haven't seen the show in years. But you've got me intrigued enough that I plan to give it a shot.
  24. USAFChief
    not even if Ford supplied the alcohol?
  25. USAFChief
    I think your issue should be taken up with Fangraphs, no? Mike's just quoting data they put out there.
