  1. Yup—every 3rd/4th/5th starter approaching free agency secretly wants to murder Lance Lynn right now. Also Tony Clark.
  2. Nice as it is, I don’t think Detroit Lakes can fix Lynn.
  3. I’d say it’s looking like we’ll be sellers come August, except I have no idea what players on this team will draw any interest whatsoever. Reed? Pressly maybe?
  4. Dozier’s success is tied to hitting homers, which is less helpful hitting behind the worst hitters than the best. Even when he’s going great, it’s not a good spot for him. I would absolutely say Mauer is a better option to lead off, and to be perfectly honest, I’d put Escobar, Kepler, or even Grossman (assuming he’s going to play every day) there, and let Dozier hit his homers/popouts from the 3 hole.
  5. What if a ball hits the foul pole, and bounces back into fair territory? Common sense would dictate it’s foul, since it’s not the fair pole, I would think.
  6. I like to think that the ghosts actually thought it was hell (for obvious reasons), but asked the other way, like when someone seriously hurts them self and you immediately ask if they’re ok instead of if they’re hurt.
  7. 1960, two years after Iowa’s only title. On another note, how much fun must it have been to be a Minnesota sports fan in 1960? A natty, and two brand spanking new franchises.
  8. Dozier’s OBP down to .333, and average to .255. His BABIP is not too much out of line for his career norms. Remind me again why he’s at the top of the lineup.
  9. Gopher Football National Titles—7 Hawkeye Football National Titles—1 You were saying?
  10. This is an easy one. A ghost is simply the spirit of a deceased person who has not found rest. As in heavenly rest. The ghosts are asking if it’s heaven because they have no idea what heaven is like, having never been there.
  11. More questionable bullpen moves by Molitor. Reed gets guys 6, 7, and 8 in the 7th inning, which forces Rogers to take 9 through 5 in the 8th, 4 of which are righties. Somehow it only cost us a run—we got lucky.
  12. Because it's hard to get real deer to stand still. Duh.
  13. Gameday is having some issues right now.
  14. It;s now 4-0 Jets, 12 minutes into the game. In true Minnesota fashion; Fire Boudreau!
  15. The 4 pitch walk to Span wasn't concerning?
  16. Dan Gladden mentions that Archer has a 7.84 ERA. He's aware that its possible to update stats in real time, right?
  17. This game is on pace to be done in 2 hours and 15 minutes. Pace of play concerns my ass.
  18. In other MN sports news, Dubnyk has given up 2 goals on 4 shots. Are we sure his success isn't just a byproduct of Ryan Suter being good?
  19. That was very innovative in my office.
  20. What kind of name is Mallex? Also, understand who's on first Esco.
  21. Dazzle says Chris Archer's numbers will be better when he gets on a better team. It's true his ERA is way above his FIP and xFIP, but both his FIP and xFIP are at their highest level since 2013 (his rookie year). I think right now there is more wrong than the magic of a laundry change will fix.
  22. That's odd. The legions of Rays fans are known for vociferous and noisy support.
