  1. Jorge, Jorge, Jorge!!!!!!!
  2. half a step to his right and glove down. fairly routine for a decent 3B. don't get me wrong, happy he made the play. but I think we've gotten to the point where we're just happy when our guys make any plays :-)
  3. When did TD start allowing White Sox fans to start game day threads? :-)
  4. I'm just really happy to see him doing really well now that he's back.
  5. Does Dick realize Sano DHd most of last season when he tore up the league?
  6. yeah, I've missed people calling him a bust. I've seen discussion on what expectations he'd have to get to in order to not be considered a bust (expectations keep lowering), but I haven't seen anyone say he's a bust. So, I guess I'll keep a lookout better for that.
  7. I love how excited our announcers get over relatively routine plays.
  8. we all know how a few PAs can turn 350+ PAs irrelevant :-) Also, has anyone actually called him a bust or have people said that so far he's been disappointing?
  9. it happened during the rockies/ cubs series a couple weekends ago
  10. Lincecum is pitching for the Bees this Sunday. Might go see him,
  11. I think we probably have enough info to say that should happen regardless.
  12. when Shaun Hill is expected to be your starter, getting Sam Bradford deserves a congrats :-)
  13. I'm just glad Nolasco is gone.
  14. I don't think he ends up being a #2 type, or even very good as a starter, but I hope he does well.
  15. Watched him pitch on Thursday live. He looked really good.
  16. Congrats on getting Sam Bradford.
  17. Be a nice way to start the college season.
  18. We remember things very differently. I remember plenty of commentators blaming Smith for the pipeline and then praising Ryan for coming in and fixing it, making it one of the highest, if not the highest, ranked systems while ignoring that many of the prospects giving us hope were players acquired from when Smith was in the GM chair. And plenty of those were also convinced, like Ryan and Pohlad, that we'd do better this year based on last year and some of the rookies having some experience behind them. Some went so far as saying the rebuild was done. In any event, a lot of people from this site have been optimistic about our prospects, not just Shane. I, personally, like the prospect info Shane gives. Unfortunately, now many are lowering their expectations of some of the ones considered, for quite some time, as our best ones. For example, the level of play now acceptable for Buxton to achieve without being considered a disappointment now seems to be somewhere between Gomez and Maybin.
  19. Seems like a lot of people were praising the FO just last year on their making of such a great farm system (one that Smith supposedly left in ruins) claiming were going to take the next step with the prospects leading the way. So yeah, many people are ready, if not eager, to be optimistic for a variety of reasons.
  20. yes, exactly. Should have been traded last offseason.
  21. just trying to remember when they traded any quality prospects for proven quality MLB players
  22. that would be a very unusual move for the Twins.
  23. maybe we can get a 5 tool talent like Buxton.
