    Talk about the fun police.
  2. Cap'n Piranha
    That should be correct, since if you're driving south from Minnesota, you end up in Louisiana, not Canada. Unless you have some sort of fancy boat-car, and you're attempting a North/South circumnavigation, in which case observation time is the critical factor.

    On the urinal subject, it's also important that if there are 3 of them, and all three are open, you must never choose the middle urinal. It is only polite to give another person the option to stand next to you, or not.

    Well Esco's not starting, so The Law of Eduardo forces Molitor's hand. He really has no choice.

    (In my best Chris Farley from the superfans sketch voice...) That was me.

    Twins don't want to give up that regular season championship belt! 1-1 in chances to claim it, 2-2 in defending it!
  7. Cap'n Piranha
    I would guess that the "braintrust" is familiar with UZR, but because it can't be scouted with the eye test, doesn't use it. I would also imagine that they remember very well what Hunter did in 2007, but figured the potential of a few thousand more tickets, jerseys, and concessions sold due to the homerism of rubes would more than offset that + the $10m they're paying him to be a mentor (which, given that Rosario, Buxton, and Hicks are all in the minors, apparently he's mentoring Schafer and Robinson).

    That's because the locals think UZR is a modified Israeli machine gun, and don't remember the first-rate donkey Hunter was on his way out of town in 2007. Every week, he appeared as a guest on the Dan Barreiro show to profess how much he wanted to be in Minnesota, but that is wasn't up to him. He claimed it was in the Twins best interest to talk to him as soon as possible, so when the FO offered to re-work his deal, he of course refused to even negotiate. And lo and behold, when he got his free agency, he rejected the Twins offer, and demonstrated that it WAS up to him. Now, I'm not saying Hunter should have taken 3 and 45 instead of the Angels' 5 and 90. I'm just saying be honest about what you're after, which in his case, was the money.

    Banishing Hunter from the lineup is a good start. Now how do we do the same with Schafer (without replacing him with Robinson)? Also, I'd like to order the Josmil Pinto for my starter at catcher please.

    0-3 against Detroit, 1-2 against the Whities, 2-1 against the Royals... Is there anyone in Vegas who will put a bet down on a sweep of the Tribe for me?
  11. Cap'n Piranha
    Make that 3/3 with 2 doubles and 2 RS...
  12. Cap'n Piranha
    Royals 2/2 with 2 doubles and 1 RS since those statements...
  13. Cap'n Piranha
    Cory Provus doing everything he can to jinx the Twins right now. "Escobar's last chance to extend his hitting streak" "Escobar's hitting streak will end" How dare he tempt fate!?!
  14. Cap'n Piranha
    If you're the one who wove the tale of a poor Missouri child, bed-ridden with a greivous ailment, bereft of cheer due to the Royal's inability to defeat the Twins, then yes. Yes it is.
  15. Cap'n Piranha
    Bawl those eyes out kid!
  16. Cap'n Piranha
    Well he brought in Stauffer, so I think we can safely assume Molitor either wants to lose today, or bet the over.
  17. Cap'n Piranha
    I'm guessing that sick kid feels much better now. The Minnesota Twins! Lifting the spirits of sick Missourians since 1961!

    Homer by Kennys DH!!!
  19. Cap'n Piranha
    You say this as though people wouldn't have just assumed it.
  20. Cap'n Piranha
    Wow, that CDH education REALLY didn't work out for Joe in the spelling department.
  21. Cap'n Piranha
    You're 2/3 of the way there. Get rid of the guy whose name starts with "R" and rhymes with "Zobinson", and I agree!
  22. Cap'n Piranha
    And the Twins pry the regular season championship belt from Kansas City's fingers!

    763% more of zero is still zero. Therefore, any Rihanna is infinitely more Rihanna than I would want. Also, what is the difference between American Oxygen, and say, Peruvian Oxygen?
  24. Cap'n Piranha
    Given that Cain murdered Abel, this post contains a certain amount of morbidity on your part.
  25. Cap'n Piranha
    On another note, how about some fun bets that are depressing at the same time! Which side are you on? Which will be greater... # of Twins hits, or # of KC runs # of K's by Twins pitchers, or # of XBH's by KC hitters # of walks by Twins batters, or # of errors by Twins fielders # of Twins runs, or # of KC home runs # of Twins hits, or # of IP by Kyle Gibson
