  1. That's a pretty disappointing 2-0 swing from Buxton.
  2. The roof got stuck in the funding stage.
  3. "We've seen the best out of this guy, and he's about to get paid by someone. That's not gonna be us." Heh. The Twins are paying his salary. It was a stupid trade. Ridiculously stupid.
  4. Not to mention, K/9 misses an important factor: how many hitters did that pitcher face. Hypothetically, a pitcher could throw an inning facing a lineup three times, K'ing the 9 hole hitter each time. His K/9 is a gaudy 27, but he gave up 24 runs in that inning. Conversely, a guy could get three straight pop-ups and have a K/9 of zero, but he had a 1-2-3 inning. Or he K's the first 3 hitters, and has a K/9 of 27...same as the first guy above. Not a very useful stat. Those are extreme examples, of course, and over time K/9 becomes more useful, but K percentage is always a better stat.
  5. Herb Carneal will always be the voice of the Twins to me. Awesomeness. However, Cory Provus is really, really good. We're lucky to have him. I can even deal with Gladden's awfulness knowing Cory will be back on soon.
  6. I'm confident all these wasted scoring opportunities won't matter in the end.
  7. You get THAT out of your head by picturing Chin Ho naked.
  8. Infallible method to get any song out of your head: Hum the theme from "Hawaii Five-Oh" The original.
  9. Let's hope we also end up in Zijuanteneyo.
  10. I don't think I'm giving credit for a 60 game "season." Which, BTW, didn't result in much.
  11. The pitching whisperers need to talk louder.
  12. Indeed. As well as could be hoped.
  13. How many 2 strike hits can the Twins surrender?
  14. Walking the 9 hole hitter. Interesting strategy.
  15. I read this as some sort of gregorian chant.
  16. I don't think that'd work. They want someone who can throw strikes.
