  1. I FOUND HIM, MIKE!! HE'S ON THE BULLPEN MOUND. DEEP LEFT CENTER!!
  2. One more data point on why I mistrust prospects. Every. Single. One. Buxton was ranked the number 1 or 2 prospect by all three major services for 3 yrs running. Career minor league numbers of .302/.379/.504. I think the best use of minor leaguers is often to use them to get major leaguers.
  3. I'll take "Questions I would never, ever have expected to see Sixel post for one thousand, Alex."
  4. Because it's required: "bilateral?"
  5. Carson: "On the other hand, in the bottom half of these innings, it's like a truck load of pepper mills crashed. Traffic ground to a halt."
  6. Carson: "The traffic on the basepaths was so bad with Gibson on the mound..." McMahon: "How bad was it?" ... laughs ... The traffic was so bad, my nav system asked "Are we there yet?"
  7. Carnac: "Name two beings capable of hitting HRs at will against the Twins pitching staff."
  8. I think the point being made was, with a bottom three of Buxton, Adrianza, Wilson, it doesn't matter WHO you bring in. You don't have to bring in a reliever. With Buxton struggling, the bottom third of the Twins order is like three NL pitchers in a row. And you are going to struggle to consistently score when a third of your lineup is a black hole.
  9. Shane Mack, 1991: .310/.363/.529. I wonder what Shane is up to these days? Our RH hitting fourth OFer slot is open.
  10. How does one kill a vegetarian vampire?
  11. I'm skeptical Kepler has truly become capable of sustained hitting vs LH pitching, but I'll say this much. He's done a really nice job of it all year so far, and it hasn't looked lucky in the least.
  12. After already writing "Eduardo Escobar, cleanup hitter."
  13. Disagree, actually. When Sano guesses right, he hits it hard. When Buxton guesses right, he swings and misses but comes closer to the ball.
  14. He does generate a "HOF?" thread about as often as he gets a day off, too.
  15. It probably is. I just want more from first base, than some walks and a few soft singles to left. Along with the need for time off every third or fourth game. For 23 million.
  16. I'm so done with Mauer. Don't want him back next year at any price.
  17. Recognition, and hitting it when he does recognize it.
