    Sven and Ole decided to put new siding on the farm house. They were hard at work, nailing on the new siding, when Ole noticed Sven was tossing about every other nail away. He'd pull the nail out of his carpenter's belt, look at it, and either nail it in or toss it over his shoulder on the ground. "Sven," says Ole. "Vat da heck are ya doin over dere? Vy are ya tossin out all dem dere nails?" "Some uh dem are made wrong," says Sven. "I pull out da nail, look at it, and if da nail points t'ward da house, I nail it in. If it's made backwards, and points da other way, I throw it out. Aint you doin' da same?" "Oh Sven, vat da hey??" yells Ole. "Dem dere nails ain't made wrong, ya big goof. Dey're for da other side of da house!"

    Know what?

    One nothing fastball after another. Tucker Barnhart is worse than Vazquez, FFS.
  4. USAFChief
    Well this is going well.
  5. USAFChief
    Perfectly. Hahahahaha

    BRAN (like cereal) - duhn.
  7. USAFChief
    Really bad idea to pitch this team's lefties inside. Why?
  8. USAFChief
    I love these "Serpientes" uni's. You know, as a, uh, younger demographic.
  9. USAFChief
    Ah...Larnach. Uffda
  10. USAFChief
    I don't think they want to add Festa to the 40 man yet. We'll see

    For the record, Carroll has been slowly trending up. June has been his best month, mid-.700s OPS.
  12. USAFChief
    I'd be surprised, but let's hope.
  13. USAFChief
    Santana has been better than I would have dreamed. Still 2nd on the team in PAs so let's hope he can keep it up.
  14. USAFChief
    I thought we were discussing who you DID mention. Did you not label Brooks Lee a "once in a decade" player?
  15. USAFChief
    Is it, though?
  16. USAFChief
    They don't really need to fill Paddack's spot until Saturday.
  17. USAFChief
    Disagree. Mediocre starters are only more valuable on a spreadsheet. In truth, they're pretty easy to find. Every team has several. Interchangeable, unremarkable, putting up similar results to many others. Impact relievers are way more impactful. They're harder to find, as well. We've got one in Jax. Leave it alone. If Jax could throw this kind of stuff for 6 innings every five days, great. Move him. But he won't. Been there, done that.

    A player not on the 40 man with zero big league time is a "once-in-a-decade" player? C'mon. Preposterous Statement Tournament high seed, right there.
  19. USAFChief
    Agreed, but he's been their 6th starter on paper, had a successful start last time up, and doesn't require a 40 man move. I doubt it's Festa.
  20. USAFChief
    Ober would be on normal rest Thursday. Same for Lopez Friday. I'd guess that's what they'll do, with Varland going Saturday in Seattle.
  21. USAFChief
    There might be multiple reasons the Twins shouldn't pursue either of these starters, but money isn't one of them.
  22. USAFChief
    Paddack to 15 day IL, retroactive to Saturday. Ronny Henriquez up and apparently already in Arizona.
  23. USAFChief
    It doesn't work that way. If you skip Paddack completely, you'd need to bring Ryan back on three days rest Saturday, and SWR on three days rest Sunday. They're not going to do that. An option would be to push Paddack's next start back two days, from Thursday to Saturday. That moves Ober and Lopez's next start up a day, to the normal four days off instead of five. It gives Paddack a seven day break and brings Ryan back Sunday on his normal four days rest. They could also keep this week as scheduled, and use Monday July 2nd's off day to skip a Paddack start if they wait. But they can't, as of now, just skip Paddack's start this Thursday.
  24. USAFChief
    False.
  25. USAFChief
    Hellofan outing, Mr Lopez. More of that, if you please.
