  1. I think he had him if the throw is anywhere near the bag.
  2. Romero seems to have a bit of trouble locating the breaking ball. Unless he's aiming for the outside back corner of the LH batter's box, in which case his command is impeccable.
  3. Y'know, it occurs to me that dry erase boards are a wonderful invention. Truly remarkable.
  4. Concur 100 percent. There is zero reason for Cave in CF if Buxton is available.
  5. Shaping up to be the 14th of his 15 seasons with less than 150 games played.
  6. We swapped rosters with the Brew Crew? Falvine are genius!
  7. I don’t think there’s any disagreement he has hit most of his HRs to left. But that’s the point... he hasn’t hit “a lot” of HRs anywhere. At least in part because most of his HRs are to left. To bring this full circle...you need to pull the ball with regularity to hit with power.
  8. My bet: he looks the same before and after Ash youtube’s him. Also, “youtube” is a verb?
  9. Life advice: be the person your dog thinks you are.
  10. Outstanding job yet again, Van. Also, am I to understand “post-Malone” ISNT a reference to the Twins current starting staff? Without Tommy?
  11. Define “a lot.” He has SLG’d over .500 three years in his career, and one of those was 122 PAs in his rookie year. SLG’d under .400 five times. Career SLG .441. Over 13 HRs once. Over 40 doubles once. He has one year where he had ‘a lot’ of LF doinks over the fence, and even that was short of 30. He doesn’t hit for power. This isn’t news. And an inability to pull the ball in the air is certainly one reason. Most HRs are pulled, for everyone.
  12. I love the optimism, but man I just don't know if he can improve that much.
  13. Buxton's ABs last night weren't even competitive. Against a below average soft tossing lefty. I'm at a loss...how long can you keep running him out there?
  14. "Weakness." Bilateral neck weakness, is the appropriate term, I believe.
  15. Dismal performance on many levels. Go get 'em tomorrow.
  16. The truth is, I have the Extra Innings pkg and usually watch at least one game per series on the other team's broadcast. Dick is above average, IMO. Bert has grown pretty stale, though. EDIT: To FSN Execs...I'm available, and my agent will take your phone call. I'm on Facebook, hit me up and I'll get you a number.
  17. I think I'd like Provus to stay right where he is. He is REALLY good, and I like baseball on the radio.
  18. This homestand has been demoralizing to ME, I'll tell you that.
  19. Dick, after sac fly to center: "And it won't be a clean inning for Hughes."
  20. Yeah. That and the ringing line drives. That's prolly a bit demoralizing too.
  21. Very much so. Better minor league numbers than Mauer, by far, with obvious power potential.
  22. And just to prove my point, we traded minor leaguer Ramos for proven major league talent Matt Capps. Need I provide further examples of the certainty of my plan? //hides head in shame
