    The Boss...who says "hi" from Asbury Park, NJ.

    And Elton John's "Someone shaved my wife tonight."

    A swamp cooler is a device marketed in SW states, particularly Arizona, as a cheaper alternative to air conditioning. It sits on top of your house, and does a great job of maintaining the stiffling heat while adding oppressive levels of humidity to your indoor space.

    It's weird...I normally don't like lengthy games. But since I was AT two of the Detroit games, I wouldn't have minded if they had went 20 hours.

    You can cancel the postgame presser.

    Mrs Chief had the same question.

    "At least I think it's a chip on his shoulder...it could be a Tasmanian devil." It could be kangaroo doo, too.

    You also can't claim the Twins have an amazing, deep farm system loaded with talent and simultaneously claim that same system has little trade value.

    Dave Martinez. One of Melky Cabrera, Nelson Cruz, Yazmani Tomas, or Nic Markakis (if he makes it to free agency). One of Max Scherzer or Jon Lester. I'd kick the tires on Hanley Ramirez. I'd ask the Dodgers about a trade for one of their outfielders if they're looking to dump salary. I'd ask Cincinnati about Latos. Just off the top of my head. Obviously they're not going to do all those, but the point is, talent will change teams this winter. Go get some.

    New field manager, he (or she) picks coaches. Invest assets (money and/or minor leaguers) to obtain better talent.

    If I give you credit can I use that as my sig line?

    At some point you have to start earning more playing time. He has ~800 PAs over the past three years of mid 80s OPS+. He'll be 27 next year. Going into 2015 planning on him manning a corner spot is wishful thinking, IMO.

    I feel like I read this exact article last fall. IMO there is little chance the Twins are a competitive team in 2015 if they do little to improve this winter. And I'm not in favor of sitting around through more losing seasons waiting for the minor leagues to provide all the talent this team needs to be a 90+ win team again. There's almost no chance Sano or Buxton are productive major leaguers next year, and not a whole lot more hope foe Meyer, IMO...and that's provided they even make the big leagues. Meyer can't even crack the 25 man on THIS team.

    Bumped in case anyone wants to check their prospects of winning.
  16. USAFChief
    I clicked into this thread expecting to read about managerial candidates.
  17. USAFChief
    I blame Ricky Nolasco.
  18. USAFChief
    Keeeeeeeeeeee-rap. crapitycrapcrapcrap. poop.
  19. USAFChief
    The funny thing is that RB is even scarier in person.
  20. USAFChief
    As usual, Grandmaster Gardy is several moves ahead of us novices.
  21. USAFChief
    Donttouchmydart.com May or may not be safe for work.
  22. USAFChief
    40-odd posts in this game thread, two possum and one gopher reference. I worry about you sometimes, RB.
  23. USAFChief
    It's on FS1 for me.
  24. USAFChief
    Who is this "Nolasco" guy? When'd we get him?
  25. USAFChief
    It looked to me like the ball was in the stands. If I'm in that position, I'm going for that ball, too.
