  1. You poor thing. How did you cope knowing that your future Olympic destiny as a soccer player was ruined because of a ball hitting you in the face?
  2. That's a disappointing start to his AA career. Was hoping for more from Jorge than being a pitch-to-contact guy.
  3. There may be something about this getting hit in the face thing... Have we forgotten about Henry Rowengartner? Pre catastrophic arm injury in the schoolyard he was a middling OF for a 14 year old town ball team. Post catastrophic arm injury in the schoolyard: 115 IP, 1.65 ERA, 14 K/9. Who's with me on hitting some liners towards Rosario?! Or... you know, you're probably right.
  4. So perhaps the answer to our problems is to hit Rosario in the face with another baseball so he can return to the days where he had plate discipline! At least that's what I've learned in the movies....
  5. Annnd now flashbacks from the high school spring dance are coming back....
  6. Fellas, fellas. You're both pretty enough to take to the dance.
  7. This team is between a rock and a hard place for the C position. Don't want to keep hitching our wagon to Suzuki every year, but there's nothing too intriguing available on the market, and I'm not sold on Murphy or Centeno. That being said, I'd be more intrigued with a Jason Castro or Nick Hundley signing and see who out of Garver/Turner/Centeno/Murphy steps up for the backup spot.
  8. 30+ HR hitters with good plate discipline don't grow on trees. If you think we hold a grudge about David Ortiz, imagine the grudge we'd have if Sano was traded.
  9. Absolutely not on tendering Plouffe. I'd be perfectly fine letting him go for nothing this off-season.
  10. Park's 1st year has been a disappointment. Hopefully that's not another remorseful signing from overseas. I think this infield roster crunch is going to solve itself one way or the other. Park could decide to go back to Korea, or Vargas could be sold to an overseas team. My prediction is one of them will be gone this off-season.
  11. Moving Plouffe is the highest priority. No reason at all for him to return in 2017, so get whatever you can for him. I'd also like for them to move Milone, and 1 of Boshers or Kintzler.
  12. http://www.kappit.com/img/pics/201501_2307_cbhdb_sm.jpg I don't want to think of an OF consisting of Danny Santana at all. Especially for more than a couple of months.
  13. Agreed. Buxton, Sano, and Kepler are IMO the most important players to the franchise. If Bruno can't find a way to get through to these players he has to go.
  14. Good God. What player would thrive in circumstances like that?
  15. George Carlin was a master at creating comedy bits about the English language. Wish I could post them on here, but they're littered with profanity.
  16. Guy is definitely a YMMV kind of guy. I've gone to a couple of places here in Austin that were featured on Diners, Drive Ins, and Dives. One was a very average BBQ place, and one was a brunch spot that was actually really good, but a terribly long wait to get a table.
  17. I'm currently at a bar where the game of the night is "Chicken S*** Bingo". There are live chickens here and a big playpen with a bingo board set up. If said chicken s's on your number, mark it down. It's the simple things in life! How's the game?
  18. Sounds like we found the next Ben Revere for the organization!
  19. The 2010 Santiago Supercharger is having performance issues already? Sorry Ash, all sales are final!
  20. I did have a dream that I was an owner/operator of a used car lot last weekend... Or was that real?
  21. I'm not sure if it's a blessing or a curse to remember dreams. For me I remember maybe 1-2 dreams a year. The rest of the time, I have no clue if I dream, or what the dreams are about.
  22. Revere 2.0 wouldn't be so bad considering the Twins are lacking a true leadoff hitter.
  23. Just looking at Granite's numbers he reminds me of Ben Revere. What's his defense like? Hopefully a little better than Revere's arm!
  24. How else do you think Matt LeCroy beat out David Ortiz for the DH spot initially?
  25. Santiago could be dreadful for all I know. I will still appreciate watching him pitch over Ricky Nolasco any day of the week.
