  1. Sano has to learn to hit singles more softly. Obviously something to work on.
  2. I'm not a moderator, but I want to jump in here - in the spirit of River Brian - and suggest that we all get in touch with our inner sense of humor.
  3. http://makemusicals.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/movie_usher.jpgAre the Twins about to usher the Angels into the playoffs? I'm irked.
  4. At least Sano came out of the showroom ready to go. imagine if both he and Buxton were failing offensively. Alas, small sample size. Youth. Patience required. Etc.
  5. But he is here, in the majors, so one expects (or hopes) that he hits like a major league player. Unfortunately, he's not ready. If he's a TK 1000 AB guy it's going to suck. We did expect more than that.
  6. Goose Island now owned, wouldn't you know it, by Anheuser-Busch InBev.
  7. Too bad Performance Enhancing Amphetamines (PEAs) aren't still in vogue. That woulda got him through the grind.
  8. Yonge Piggies? Everywhere there's lots of piggies Living piggy lives You can see them out for dinner With their piggy wives Clutching forks and knives - to eat - their - bacon
  9. No, the bottle is 1/4 full, not 3/4 empty. Please, have a little faith. There's magic in the night. She ain't a beauty, but hey she's all right. Oh, that's alright with me.
  10. I think the guy who wrote that forum has been hammered enough ... However, the Babe's training regime was lifting beers and flirting vigorously.
  11. Then bring them back to life, and kill them again!!
  12. I think you're wrong. I've been watching the games all year that have been played inside my computer, so there. (Alas, this one is not on my computer - I use an illicit website - so I am forced to actually do something useful as well. Have no lawn though.)
  13. Thanks? I browse stats, picking up little things that may be of interest.
  14. Buxton is hitting .438 in the eighth inning (7-16), but .161 in all other innings ... Clearly Molitor should just bat him in the 8th inning!
  15. When scoring 8 or more runs the 2015 Twins are now 22-1.
  16. Think Barry Zito (SFG), Johan Santana (NYM), Mike Hampton (CR), etc. Big splash #1 ace signings that fans go crazy for don't always work out. In fact, they most often don't. What then? You as a fan get pissed off at the GM for his foolish spending. It's hard to win in this GM free agent freaking game. See this article from US Today published earlier this year: "Massive contracts for starting pitchers almost never work out." http://ftw.usatoday.com/2015/01/max-scherzer-james-shields-free-agent-pitchers-contracts-100-million-mlb
  17. I lived in California for a long time and I still called it POP - just to annoy them.
  18. If Mauer was still at the top of his game he and Sano could be nicknamed the S&M Boys. I just thought of that.
  19. 7.5% of his hits go to right field. He has to be one of the most pull-happy batters in mlb.
  20. And on Hank Williams' birthday! Shameful!
  21. He may win AL Manager of the Year yet, if things go our way the next couple of weeks.
  22. I like the pissed off angry shouts from the fans. Warranted.
