  1. I'm too lazy to look it up, so you'll have to trust my memory, but It's a 10 day rule, and has three exceptions: the 10 day rule is waived if, 1. If the major league team places someone--anyone--on the DL in the 10 day period after the demoted player reports to the minor league team 2. the minor league team's season ends 3. the player demoted is traded
  2. 1. Duffey could turn right around and come back to MN if Santana goes on the DL. If they're worried about the cost of a r/t airline ticket, just have Duffey stay in Minneapolis with friends. He's not going to get a start for Rochester for a few days, either. 2. Then DL him. Of course, then they'd have to pay him a MLB salary for 15 days. There's no reason to let Duffey just sit on the roster. Do something.
  3. How to tell when things aren't going well for your MLB team: David Murphy requests his release and leaves the organization.
  4. Looking at the big picture here, it's pretty darn inexcusable for a MLB team to find itself--in late April, no less, with all winter to plan--in a position where they have a game tonight and feature a 25 man roster with no less than 14 pitchers, and a 40 man roster short a man, but featuring only 17 position players. I mean, I could see if a rash of injuries tore up a plan, by maybe July or August. That's not the case. They've had a couple injuries, but nothing out of the ordinary or not faced by lots of teams, lots of times. They had all winter to plan this out, and come out of spring training with this mess.
  5. Get Buxton to work on bunting How about they get him to work on hitting first? You can't make a successful MLB career out of being a good bunter.
  6. At the least, terribly perplexing. Now 39 on the 40 man roster. Only 17 position players.
  7. Toss in a horrid throw from Rosario and a "lets do this in slow motion" DP turn from Escobar for good measure.
  8. So, Gibby...lets recap, shall we? A hit on an 0-2 pitch, a HBP on an 0-2 pitch, couple of walks, two RBI single to the 8 hitter...did I miss anything?
  9. Unless she's taking PEDs. Then she'd knock you on your Ash.
  10. Enjoy the game thread all. Mrs Chief is dragging me off to some Podunk dust bowl in Nevada...Las Vegas or some such. Borrrrrrring. Prolly don't even have sompkace to watch a ball game. BTW, living in Tucson has given me a chance to pick up some Spanish. "Las Vegas" is Spanish for "the Vegas." Cool, huh?

  12. Weekend series against the Nats? Harper? pfft. optimism, boys and girls. Nothing is impossible.
  13. Do you realize that lazer beam is pointed directly at you, Bark?
  14. http://planetsave.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/galapagos-giant-tortoise-extinct-mate-mates.jpg Ha! Good one!
  15. http://thegreentrashcan.com/greenblog/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/charlie-and-tort.jpg All I want is friggin galapagos turtles with friggin lazer beams attached to their friggin shells. Is that too much to ask?
  16. galapagos turtle. Also taking a pre game nap.
  17. G'night everyone. Thanks for the fun game thread.
  18. Flo > ATT lady >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Toyota lady
  19. small children? //sorry, but if you're just gonna put it on a tee for me...//
  20. Somewhere out there, Glunn is lurking, handing out "likes" like candy and tossing back Chivas by the gallon.
  21. The Toyota lady commercials are another that just make me almost physically ill I hate them so much
