  1. Vans dad is likely a mature sensible adult with too much common sense to be on a TD GT.
  2. I am really not sure why he is here. It's been very obvious he isn't in their plans, and hasn't been since Molitor took over. It's a wasted roster spot, and short of anyone else coming up with a viable rationale it could be as simple as Ryan doesn't want to see Ortiz 2. That seems silly, but the Twins rarely PH or platoon. He isn't a defensive replacement, and the investment in money and pride in Park preclude Arcia DH'ing. If they aren't going to send Park down after these past 2 1/2 months, they ain't gonna send him down. Arcia seems like a good teammate, I hope he ends up somewhere and gets a chance, and does well.
  3. Tell that to Sampson!
  4. We need a cake, WITH AN ACCURATE CANDLE COUNT!
  5. April Fools Day? Thath eethy for you to thay.
  6. I see a few of his ground ball singles slipping through the left side, fouling off more pitches extending AB's because he seems to be pulling less. But I still think there is only a choice of the two Doziers, one or the other. He can't improve his avg and OBP and keep the power.
  7. Turn down the sound and trust your eyes! TwinsWorld! Where cleaning your closest.......is a viable alternative.
  8. Turn down the sound and trust your eyes!
  9. "player" is in the singular, rendering an answer impossible!
  10. If the symptoms,s reappear it will be a duplex complex complex complex.
  11. Swimg at an outside pitch pulled it to third and it was a DP.
  12. Rumor has it the legendary Zebras, er zephyrs, are in the state tourney Thursday
  13. Uh, I think Plouffe still hit cleanup often. Why would you want Sano to hit cleanup, he couldn't even beat out Plouffe for his position.
  14. During a late road game versus the Angels last night, the struggle was protracted and fierce. A miracle of deliverance, achieved by valor, by perseverance, by perfect discipline, by faultless service, by resource, by skill, by unconquerable fidelity, is manifest to us all. The Angels were hurled back by homers by Plouffe, Buxton, and Grossman, and the bullpen allowed only a single run. The Twins engaged the main strength of the Angels, inflicting upon them their fourth loss in as many games to this club this season alone, and lifting themselves from the jaws of death and shame by extending their own winning streak to two, revealing their true potential and ability to take on the tasks which lie immediately ahead. >>>>>>>>>>>>Don't forget the Angels 3 charged errors, the double clutched DP ball the balk..... combined with our textbook lesson on how to execute a rundown, and the virtually flawless initiation of our newest bullpen savior, and you had the kind of baseball that you could find anywhere else! (In MLB, that is)
  15. I heard he moved to Dubuque
  16. Guys like Chief can't wait for a seven year plan!
  17. TiVo makes life simpler, but it's almost a sad feeling knowing that nothing matters. A 15 game wins streak would mean bleep!
  18. I haven't forgotten the Pohlads.nor sadly will anyone soon! But on to a more toxic topic! Local media! Whine Line is the only place I can come for true unfettered analysis of theTwins. (I don't like to add the MN to their name, it's not fair to the state) regardless I think local media is a fawning bunch of apologists for the team. Endless trips to the press buffet have not only expanded their waistlines it has tempered their opinions. Note this headline from the Trib! "Twins show their best again against Angels"! Yes it was an overpowering victory led by the Angels. And if you saw the game, you know that was not a typo! I am seriously thinking of calling the Trib, and telling them that if I had a subscription, I would cancel it. That oughta get their attention!
  19. I am just going to post this for everyone's perusal. Beyond that, what's left to say? http://www.startribune.com/like-on-field-product-twins-front-office-ranked-among-worst-in-mlb/382982591/
  20. Van, are you sure that was our Mike, or that he is not being forced to type this? Did you notice any stress in the typing. I do think it's possible his account was hacked. This is the second post I saw him make assuming the FO has a plan? He was either hacked, or ate too many meatball sliders. Something is amiss.
  21. Vanimal long time listener 52nd time caller. Or was it 53? Let me think, hmm,m,m, oh what the hell. My question is there anyway we could see Dave the Saint come up with a discount formula for food. Say 10% off for every FA scrap heap that TR puts on the field. Kind of a mea culpa for the season and a admission that this isn't really MLB. Also a one time 20% discount whenever one of the IF as too slow afoot to get out of the way in a rundown.
  22. Yes. And for one dollar we will give you the exact amount of sliders that were mashed that day. or all you can eat whichever is less
