  1. ANND Welcome Back! After taking the afternoon to celebrate National Beer Day, I come back to find the show derailing quickly. I'm glad we're back in the swing of things here on Minnesota Twins Whine Line! Politics, erections, SPORTS SPORTS SPORTS my whole life is SPORTS... I already had my cup of coffee, and I see there's some voice mails waiting for me!
  2. I'd put Gibson as a - ... His sinker looked good but was having problems locating his other pitches. Escobar deserves a ++ .... one of the few very bright spots on the team right now. Dozier deserves a - - .... I'm not expecting a .500 BA with 4 HRs already, but his at-bats have been brutal so far. Pressly +++ ... very impressed with him so far. Hope he can keep it up.
  3. Thanks for the updates Seth and others. I see Pat Dean's next in the rotation for Rochester. Berrios is Rochester's #3 in the rotation?
  4. To get you prepared for the weekend.... Saturday is National Cherish an Antique Day! So let's all try to be nice to Chief... Sunday is National Siblings Day! So call your sibling - maybe plan something with them.
  5. Hope you're enjoying some snow on the ground in the motherland this morning... Today is National Zoo Lovers Day! When was the last time you went to the zoo? They have a rather large Zoo in San Antonio that I went to one weekend.. A lot of exotic animals I haven't seen before. Today is also National Empanada Day! Can't say I have empanadas a lot, but whenever I do they're pretty tasty! Today is also National All is Ours Day! It's a day to recognize how wonderful nature is. So Mike, go on a hike and enjoy the Portland landscape!
  6. Missed the game tonight to celebrate National Beer Day instead! After browsing over the thread and checking the box score this was a good one to miss....
  7. Lots of talk of Nunez being insurance, and Santana is the insurance for the insurance. *Nationwide jingle tone* I just wish we had nice things. Carlos Quentin please come back.
  8. The intern brought up a great idea... Since the Twins refuse to use their bench, why not have 9 position players and 16 pitchers?? Considering the bullpen is already breaking down from overuse, I heavily endorse this move.. Your thoughts?
  9. Believe me ChiTown, the last thing I want to do is make this a political show.. I don't have the knowledge, energy, or willingness to do so... Back to the SCORCHING hot takes!
  10. Isn't this the same Ed Nunez who had the 2nd highest OPS on the team last season? I'm not claiming that you were one of the people advocating him to come back this season, but there were people who were. We heard all off-season how he's such a capable bench bat... Just trying to figure out what makes him a worse option than Suzuki.
  11. What are you talking about Mike? Of course you can run for office! I'm doing that right now! http://media.salon.com/2013/10/ted_cruz7.jpg
  12. Congratulations Platoon! You are caller #2!!! North will be driving down to Minnesota and personally take you out to McDonald's for lunch! I don't think it's EVER too early to over react. That's when we get our best scorching hot takes! Here's a personal favorite of mine that I just read this morning on the Star Tribune article.... The Twins just spent a month in FL where it's been 75-80 degrees. Now they're going to a place where it's 30 degrees cooler. No wonder why their bats haven't shown up! Makes PERFECT sense to me, considering the Twins are the only team that travels to a warm destination for ST!
  13. Thank you for the call, Mike. There are several reporters in Minnesota that ask the HEAVY hitting questions... I'm sure Sid Hartman is going to drill Molitor today! Or wait, Pat Reusse! Nah, not him either. Lavelle E Neal! Wait, he's dipped in the company ink.... Well, I guess we're out of options. It's tough to ask those heavy hitting questions when you have a cushy chair in the press box with pre-game food.... Minnesota Twins Whine Line has already sent in this wonderful book to Molitor to study up for the next game... http://media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/a9/a8/5a/a9a85a364e911c3ebba651ca7f3d6fa6.jpg
  14. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWMKWLY74do ANND Welcome Back! To Minnesota Twins Whine Line. It's been a rough couple of days here in the studio. The intern has refused to shower, change clothes, or leave the studio until the Twins get a win. I'm starting to worry about him... Anywho, Eduardo Escobar! He's pretty good, right? I also REALLY enjoyed watching Dozier bunt. He's taking the advice from this show that bunting every single at-bat = WS Championship!! We also have some VERY exciting news! Chief mentioned earlier that we don't have free swag to give away. Not so fast, my friend! The 2nd caller will receive a free McDonald's meal courtesy of North! What a kind gesture! I'm going to get some coffee, and we'll take calls in the order that they were received. You're on Minnesota Twins Whine Line, hello?
  15. Pictured: Miguel Sano in the OF last night....
  16. Snow in April... Ish. At least it's going to melt right away!
  17. I could think of 10+ reasons last night....
  18. It's here! It's finally here! National Beer Day! I will certainly be celebrating tonight after work. Ironically on National Beer Day we also have National Alcohol Screening Day... That's something you can hold off until after happy hour, right? Today is also National Coffee Cake Day! I love coffee cake. Cinnamon, sugar, and spice makes everything nice. Finally, today is National No Housework Day! So forget about washing those dishes, folding laundry, vacuuming.... Gross. Go do something fun instead!
  19. They could still be 0-2 no matter what they did. But IMO, better managerial decisions at the end of the game gives them a greater chance to win 1 if not both games so far...
  20. We can recycle game 1 (over) reaction thread points. I don't understand why he's hitting right now.
  21. Rickard is the 2016 Twins killer. First one since Konerko?
  22. Are we still doing phrasing?
  23. Nice one. I couldn't think of any recent guys who made that switch.
  24. I had no idea about Givens' back story as a converted infielder. That has to be pretty rare over the last 30-40 years, right?
