  1. I think you might have missed some sarcasm there.
  2. I was driving on I10 through Tucson recently when I noticed a cop car trailing me with its lights flashing. Well ... I gradually increased my speed until I was going almost 100, but the cop just stayed right behind me. Finally I gave up and pulled over. "Sir," Said the cop. "Do you know how fast you were going?" "Pretty fast, officer. Almost 100. That's all I got." "Give me a reason I shouldn't ticket you.," he said. ... I thought for a few seconds ... "Well sir," I said. "My wife told me a couple days ago she was leaving me for a cop. I was afraid you were trying to return her."
  3. Carlos Santana Rosannadanna's 95th game at TF. Seems like more.
  4. If he can give us 5 strong what a relief it'll be.
  5. Ben Nintendo reminds the Twins yet again they ****** up royally when they took Tyler Jay one pick ahead of him in 2015.
  6. Darn shame Sal Perez still isn't in KC's lineup...
  7. I said thus when the "our goal is 100 games" strategy came out. Unless it's a situation that will not resolve no matter what, IL him.
  8. It's virtually identical, except Correa is actually signed to 2 more years, where Freeman definitely wasn't.
  9. Well, I guess. I have another name for that, but to each his own. I rode LRT both ways twice this week. Zero issues or concerns, except internet connection on my phone through that *** **** tunnel by the airport.
  10. There are a lot of valid issues raised here. Even though I dont live in the area, I get to games fairly often and here are some things that might help: - I don't think coming downtown exposed one to more crime risk than anywhere else. - park for free at Mall of America and ride light rail downtown. Dropped off literally right at a TF gate. Dropped off back at MOA. $5 round trip. -there's a family food section behind CF on the main concourse level. $2 soda $2 hotdogs every day. I don't drink beer so I don't know the price, but it's something like $4. They have cheap nachos and such too. - while you're there, the mini donut stand is right next door. $6 for a pretty big bag, enough for 2 or 3 people. Upper deck skyline seats are cheap. Get them at the park and save the service fees. If you have a military ID, take advantage. I got lower seats 13 rows from the left field line Monday night for $13.50. You can go to a Twins game for not much more than a movie, and the food can actually be cheaper.
  11. Maybe they'll give us Fernando Tatis Jr in return.
  12. Reread my post.
  13. Just wanted to say that while I don't always agree with your takes, Matt, I ALWAYS enjoy your writing. Always lots of good stuff to chew on, written in an easy to understand but entertaining way. Thanks!
  14. Nobody ever called me a gentleman before! Thanks!!
  15. I gave praise to the 3rd base coach and Twins baserunning earlier this week. Today, although it might not have mattered, I really feel like Celestino has to score on Arraez's single in the 10th, even with no out. The ball was obviously down, a little into right center, fairly deep when fielded, and there wouldn't have even been a throw. With Buxton on first, not being held, I think there's a decent chance he then goes 1st to 3rd. Now the tying run is on 3rd with no outs. It ended up maybe not mattering, but that really bugged me. Also, we need better pen options. We've gotten by to date, but it can't last as constructed.
  16. I gave you guys the opportunity to send me to this, and all future games. Nobody could be bothered. SEE what happens? Hhhhmmmmm???
  17. Luis Arraez is having the best season of any Twin and as of today is most deserving of an AS nod.
  18. Through May 24th, Luis Arraez is sporting an OBP of .455. Four. Fifty. Five.
  19. You're aware Correa is already signed for two more years, correct? Opt outs after this year and next. I believe 5 team no trade this year full no trade next.
  20. We sometimes give the third base coach crap when someone gets thrown out at home. How about a shout out when he and Kep combined on a beautiful, heads up baserunning play to score the Twins first run. Kepler was off with the pitch and ran hard around second, never taking anything for granted. When the third base coach saw the LFer lob the ball into 2nd, he waived Kepler home, scoring easily. Awesome, heads up, aggressive baseball. Way cool.
  21. Full cupholders are for wimps. Real men drink the damn beer in one chug.
  22. Megill intrigues me. I'm at the game tonight and hope to see him pitch. .. With about a 7 run lead.
