  1. Hey, just checkin' in. What time's the Twins game start tonight?
  2. Do you think the Twins will sign an ace in free agency if they DON'T have Tulowitzki on the roster?
  3. Maybe so. Doubtful, IMO, but maybe so. But that's not directly related to "What's his worth in a trade to other teams." He HAS had a tough season, and it hasn't even been in the big leagues. And he's not THAT young. He might be a big side of a platoon, which knocks his value down, and he's probably not going to become a much better OFer, further knocking his value down. In any case, he's definately not part of "too expensive" when talking about getting back a catcher that you hope fills the position well for a number of years. Same for Meyer. I know many prospect fans don't want to hear it, but the luster is off Meyer, at least in terms of what he's "worth." At this point, he's just another struggling big arm, trying to find success at AAA (and not finding much of it, BTW) for more than a season. History of arm problems. Most teams have similar players. And most of those guys end up not becoming good big league players.
  4. If two players with multiple years of AAA experience, neither of which are currently deemed good enough to be on the 2015 big league team, is too expensive, then it will not be possible to upgrade catcher through a trade. Teams are not going to improve the Twins out of a sense of charity. At this point, both Meyer and Arcia would be viewed as suspects more than prospects by everyone except us. And rightly so.
  5. They also produce the packaging used for their dairy products. The packaging...for their dairy products...that'd be the cows, amiright?
  6. peel? Peel an avocado? Son of a ...

  9. A little something to put in your will?
  10. That's just a foul ball in Oakland
  11. In all seriousness, McDonald's ice cream is quite good, IMO.
  12. If Oakland doesn't score this series, I can see us taking 2 of 3.
  13. This Zobrist guy reminds me of Ben Zobrith. Used to play for the Rays.
  14. That's just a foul ball in Oakland.
  15. 7 shutout innings? pfft...what's his xFIP?
  16. Thanks. Thank you very much. I'll be here all week. Try the chicken, and don't forget to take good care of your waitstaff.
  17. Got kids? A spouse? Works for beer, too. Usually.
  18. Y'know what goes really good on ice cream? More ice cream.
  19. So a Chief walks into a bar. Nobody there but the bartender. Row of stools at the bar, empty tables, bowls of nuts every few feet on the bar, TV on in the corner. I The Chief orders up a beer, the barkeep brings it to him, and after a rather lackluster round of small talk, the bartender wanders off to the other end of the bar, where he goes back to watching a rerun of "The Green Mile." The Chief sits there, quietly sipping his beer, when he hears "Nice shirt, Chief." It seems to come from nowhere. He looks down at the bartender, who is 15 feet away and uninterested. The words clearly didn't come from him. "Maybe I imagined it," thinks the Chief. Not a minute later, there it is again..."Have you lost weight?" Chief looks around...still nobody. He calls over the bartender and asks him about it..."Is there somebody behind the bar?" The bartender hears the story, says "No...nobody back here but me." He thinks a bit, and I the Chief cacn almost see the lighbulb go on over the bartender's head. "Oh," he says. "That must be the peanuts. They're complimentary."
  20. Nice of Plouffe-see to wait till after Halsey's bedtime to hit the grand slam. Would've ruined Halsey's night.
  21. Conversely, that WAS a hell of a PA by Sano.
