  1. Milone. The guy with 2 hits? :-)
  2. 'Show Dick some respect!'-John Bender
  3. Hasn't had even one year where he got paid that and only has two coming up for sure. In any event, that's not really much for a starting veteran player. How many All Star games does he have? How often is he on a top 10 CF list, etc?
  4. Then again, Richard called Trout 'Plouffe' when Trout was running down a ball in the OF, so cant expect much.
  5. 'Twins are one of only 4 teams to not have a pitcher hit a home run in inter-league play'--Dick Bremer. He says this as they show a graphic that lists the Twins AND four other teams. So that's 5 teams, Richard.
  6. Poor Span continues to be devalued by our fan base. One of the most under-rated players in the game and certainly under-rated by a huge chunk of the Twins fan base when he was here and now that he's gone.
  7. Today is 4 20. Everyone knows what that is, right? It's pot smoker day.
  8. It's exactly what he said in his chat. Exactly. 'michael: hey dave, saw you at pitch talks last week, you were hilarious. i absolutely loved the pujols reference. please come back…..Buxton or Conforto? Dave Cameron: Well, thanks! I’ll take Conforto. I’ve never been sold on the Buxton hype, and he doesn’t look close to big league ready at this point.' Not sure why it's laughable, either. Plenty of highly thought of prospects don't end up where people think they'll be. Anyway, the point was, there are plenty of well respected baseball people who don't stand with the majority in their opinions of how Buxton will be in the majors
  9. Doesn't small ball require guys who can get on base and a team that doesn't strike out a lot?
  10. Only for the last part because I know how much short sample size likes to be pointed out on those while short sample size seems okay for more traditional stats :-)
  11. Twins starters have the highest GB rate in the AL. Twins starters are 14th in the AL in K/9IP. 9th in FIP. Twins pitching staff 11th in K/9IP. 10th in FIP. 9th in DRS, 9th in UZR :-)
  12. Those fly balls are a big reason why his BABIP is so low.
  13. Arcia almost turned a can of corn into a double.
  14. http://www.fangraphs.com/community/when-slugging-percentage-beats-on-base-percentage/ I thought I'd share this and let everyone's head explode. :-)
  15. I wish I was allowed to comment about this.
  16. yeah, he knew he hadn't put together a team like that.
  17. Kind of messed up that my thread breaking this news, which was posted a half an hour before this one was made, gets locked.
  18. Bull Durham Major League The Sandlot Eight Men Out For Love of the Game Moneyball Pride of the Yankees
  19. the Rick Anderson one is a joke. Unfortunately the Gardy one is not.
  20. Rick Anderson was just hired as the Assistant to the Special Assistant to the GM :-)
