    Et al the food at the buffet! ;-)

    Wow, that one needed a flight attendant. Maybe the shutouts were not totally sustainable.

    They're now sitting squarely on the fastball. Lynn has to get an off-speed pitch over the plate.

    Bartolo Colon nods in agreement. ;-)

    Bert says Lynn has four 'plus' pitches. Plus what, distance?

    Looking at Lance Lynn's generous gut, I'm thinking he didn't take up pilates over the winter.

    40F in Pittsburgh. Not cold, if you get to wear your puffy jacket.

    MLB netcast active at 10am San Diego time. Lance Lynn tries out for a spot on the roster. All he needs is 6 or 7 innings of shutout ball. As the fourth starter, he is allowed a few more hits. Sustainable? Sure, sure! Oh, wait, it's April 2nd now... Skol Twins!

    It looks like Gibson has finally turned the corner to become a very dangerous pitcher. Clearly the Orioles' hitters were unable to read his pitches, which means Gibson is hiding the ball well and also releasing different pitches from the same spot, giving hitters very little information to cheat. This approach makes all his pitches more effective, resulting in what we saw today. In fact, Gibson may actually get better, as he gains confidence in this more deceptive approach. Maybe there's no need to steer clear of guys like Machado. No more free passes, even for the best hitters. Time to get a little arrogant, Mr. Gibson!

    I re-watched the Duke past-ball play. Castro and Garver will need to work on their ball blocking skills because Duke gets guys out with that curve in the dirt. That's his money pitch. Other than clutch hitting, I saw a lot of promising stuff in that first game. The relief pitching (including Duke) looks much better, tho I have my doubts about Rodney's effectiveness. Odoreater looks like a guy that could throw several complete games, including a possible shutout. Let's hope some of his pitching acumen rubs off on the other guys.

    Sano will be fine. He's a very intelligent baseball player, very engaged in the game. Guys like that don't stay down for long.

    Sure, you can still come, and pay for the beer. But the Pohlads won't actually give you the beer. Curiously, the organ player stuck around, so there will be plenty of music...if you like Lady of Spain... ;-)

    The Minnesota Twins abruptly canceled the remainder of the 2018 season today after losing their opening game to the Baltimore Orioles, 3 to 2. "Crushing defeat," said Derek Falvey, who took the rap like a man. "I apologize to the Pohlad family for putting a losing squad on the field. I hereby submit my resignation." Falvey was quickly joined by the rest of the Front Office, plus all the Twins coaches and Paul Molitor, the team's Hall of Fame manager. Various players either simply left town or announced their retirement. Joe Mauer plans to start a trout fishing club, possibly hiring Kent Hrbek as coach and manager. "Fishing and golf are all baseball players know," said Mauer. "I'm too old to become a pro golfer, but I think I can still catch a fish." Fans concerned about refunds for season tickets are out of luck. The Pohlads are keeping the money.

    I'd still like to be able to throw a beach ball at 95....
  15. jimbo92107
    Wait a sec, let me look that up. Urban dictionary... Oh.
  16. jimbo92107
    Let's go Mauer Pauer!

    Grossman plays better in LF than RF.
  18. jimbo92107
    Odorizzi and Addison Reed. Two very good ads.
  19. jimbo92107
    Gotta play all sixty minutes, boys! Drop the puck, the fat lady is picking up a microphone!
  20. jimbo92107
    They had the right guy up - Grossman is the stingiest hitter on the team, and he WILL hit bloop singles!
  21. jimbo92107
    Wow, he walks 'em full. Drama!
  22. jimbo92107
    Unintentional trolling? That's five yards and loss of down!
  23. jimbo92107
    "...buy me some crickets and acrobats?"

    Turned off the audio feed. That 1.3 second delay was nasty, and the commercials were, too. Dick and Bert aren't that bad. And the radio guys aren't that good.
  25. jimbo92107
    Sano between Judge and Stanton would be revealing. Both guys out-slug Sano...so far.
