    Free idea for your War of the Worlds... The aliens look just like really nice washing machines, invading laundromats all over the world. At first it was just a stray sock, some underwear... Then dogs and cats, then people... Problem is, they do such a nice job getting stains out, you just hate to tell them they can't stay here on Earth... "But Garth, that thing ate my grandmother!" "I know Lydia, but have you seen my bluejeans? It actually got the grass stains out. They haven't looked this good in years!"

    It's always knuckle chewing time with Fien in there, but he got it done. Whew!

    Suzuki's taking a handful of pain killers. Get ready for a AAA call-up....

    Rosario's got to quit being such an easy out.

    Gotta tell you, Park looks every bit the hitter that Sano does. He can crush home runs and he can get oppo hits when the situation calls for it.

    Berrios 1,2,3 on ten pitches. Nice. Last guy throws his bat down in frustration. Even nicer!

    Good job by Berrios holding Houston to one run.

    And let him use Joe Mauer's goggles.

    Best Twins news of the season is Joe Mauer's comeback. Clearly he has regained his mastery of the strike zone, seeing the ball early and making tiny adjustments as the ball comes out of the pitcher's hand. Last year he was hesitating before he made the adjustments, with consequent failures. I'm in the combo camp; to me it looks like Mauer's recent success is part physical recovery, part going back to his original approach, and possibly part super goggles. Joe Mauer seems to have an excellent eye for figuring out the right way to do things. He has regressed back to his norm, which is a lot better than it sounds.

    Meyer was throwing his fastball same speed, no movement. Maybe Meyer is a candidate for a Walter Johnson conversion... Stride halfway between home and 3rd, pivot and sling the ball straight sidearm. With Meyer's long limbs, the ball would be coming from such a scary angle... Personally I think it's easier to control the height of a sidearm throw. You just slide your arm along a table top, roll your forearm. Like skipping stones for distance.

    Does Gonsalves actually have anything left to prove in A ball?

    Congratulations to JO Berrios. May the game of baseball be berry, berry good to you!

    Darn, now it won't go 16 innings. Okay, hurrah for Ozzie Arcia. He cranked a most palpable hit into the right field stands. Becoming a hitter?
  15. jimbo92107
    Most relievers get beat now and then. Pressley has a good, live arm and usually is effective.
  16. jimbo92107
    Maybe this game will go 16 innings too! Then we'd see Meyer, I bet...

    MLB's replay system does seem to work most of the time. Only a couple I've seen looked stupidly wrong.

    Everybody thought Jon Snow would wake up in a wolf's body. Imagine his surprise... :-)

    They lost me with the talking horse. I just can't suspend my disbelief that much. But I will admit, the Red Witch has an amazing beauty secret... ;-)

    Damn, Bert, you just gave away the secret of Oil of Olay.

    Duffey looks about the same as last season. Looks like he's trying to throw a few more change ups, but they're just get-me-over offerings, not corner-clipping heart breakers. His bread and butter still is his variety of curve balls. Even if batters are sitting on Duffey's curve, he throws them with enough variety and precision to make them pay. Meanwhile, if they sit on the curve too much, he can pop his so-so heater by them. It's a pretty good combination, certainly better than what Milone is doing these days.

    If you want to recall what it was like in Kindergarten, pick up a pen with the wrong hand and try to write your name, then draw a circle. Extra points if you can get the ends of the circle pretty close...

    Byron Buxton struck out just like the pitcher!
