    I do not agree that weight played no part in any of their careers. And for the record, none of them were third basemen. I'll further state that including pitchers in the equation is intentionally misleading, while still not providing any evidence of your claim.

    None of those three are "hitting," regardless a couple ABs in last night's game. It's possible Garver may end up a competent hitter, if he manages to stick in the big leagues. Neither Adrianza nor LaMarre will ever hit.

    Mauer on a day game after a night game? no chance.

    I find the idea that Sano's weight isn't a factor in his health and performance to be the assumption, not the other way around. He'd be the first athlete in history not to be affected.

    The difference being, of course, that there is no cure for, or blame to be assessed, over a broken toe. The same can't be said for continued poor baseball play. Baserunning, for example, isn't merely a god given talent. Nor throwing to the correct base, or countless other details that add up over the course of a season and contribute to winning or losing.

    Concur. The fizzling core wouldn't be quite so damaging if the bottom third of the lineup wasn't such a black hole.

    The quality of play--not the talent, the quality of play--is bad and keeps deteriorating. Baserunning, cutoffs, how to defend other team's baserunning plays, etc etc etc are things that make a huge difference at this level of play. The Twins are bad at all these things, and IMO that is a direct reflection of the manager and coaches. Rosario showboating basically every catch, until he inevitably drops one, is another example. You often get the level of performance you accept.

    Not sure I get smarter, but I definitely dance better.

    I am virulantly opposed to a robot strike zone. C B Buckner makes it hard, but I persevere.

    See, I figure there's a chance that someone watching this game ISN'T drunk or stupid. I'm an optimist, if nothing else.

    A not uncommon trait during the Molitor years, if you ask me.
  15. USAFChief
    Neither did Mrs Chief.
  16. USAFChief
    A little more chalant, Eddie, if you please.

    ftfy. Don't overexplain the joke.

    EveryBODY clap your HANDS.....

    I forgot to say, as Mrs Chief and I were getting ready to go out to dinner tonight, she kind of caught me by surprise. She was standing in front of the mirror, looking at herself, and she turned to me and said, "Honey, I look fat, and old. I need you to say something nice about me." Well, like I said, I was kind of caught off guard. At a loss for words. "Well, your eyesight is as good as ever, honey!" was the best I could come up with.

    He wasn't even a full time catcher in the minors. He had only 210 games started at catcher, and 2500 innings, in five seasons.
  21. USAFChief
    No.
  22. USAFChief
    I don't remember it that way. I remember reading his defense needed a lot of work.
  23. USAFChief
    The game took an ominous turn when the Twins managed to go single-double-double to start the second inning and somehow managed to get one run out of that.
  24. USAFChief
    Little league'd again.
  25. USAFChief
    Yes.
