  1. Nah, it's just "your" on public forums/social media.
  2. What about pitching a perfect game in your softball league? That seems nearly impossible to do!
  3. After cooling off a bit in May, Garver's bat is HEATING UP again during the month of June! June stats through 6/26: 19 games -- 76 AB -- .289/.368/.526 for an OPS of .894 -- 4 HR -- 9 RBI One sign of concern: He's striking out a lot more this month. 10 BB's to 27 K's.
  4. Since getting the call up to Rochester, Reed has made 2 scoreless appearances. 6/20: 1.1 IP -- 1 H -- 2 K -- 0 BB -- 26 pitches 18 strikes 6/23: 2.0 IP -- 0 H -- 1 K -- 0 BB -- 22 pitches 15 strikes
  5. And this is a video posted by Mike Berardino. Trevor's parents were in town, and he was able to tell them in person that he got the call to the majors. Very cool! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7hKk_FNNSc
  6. Here is the post-game interview after Hildenberger's MLB debut. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H0Np8Hj08qQ
  7. Thank you for clearing up the situation! I love reading your thoughts on injuries on this site. We're all cheering for Urias to make his return one day... From what you're saying it's a long road to recovery. It wouldn't be the first time baseball lost a young, exciting arm to injury. It certainly won't be the last time either.
  8. I'm very excited to watch this pitching duel tonight!!
  9. For those that jumped off the bandwagon last Sunday, your seats were saved. Feel free to jump back on, and let's get PUMPED UP around here! On to the next one.
  10. Boy, I like Kintzler, but not sure if I like him enough to give him $7 MM a season...
  11. Sigh.... The Vikings wrote a letter of support for Michael Floyd believing that he only drank Kombucha tea and it prompted the failed alcohol tests. That would be around 20 bottles of kombucha to reach the BAC level he was at.
  12. They've given several prospects a chance to prove themselves. Unfortunately the legit options (Chargois, Reed, Burdi) got hurt. Reed will probably make his debut in the next few weeks if he does well in AAA. I'm confused. Are you advocating calling up Hurlbut when he has mediocre stuff? I don't see much of a difference between him and a waiver wire pickup.
  13. Concur. My hope in this evaluation year is they would shuffle through and make decisions on all of the bubble players. They seem to be doing a fine job of doing that. Now they're getting an idea of just how many pitchers they need to sign in the off-season. And the answer is a baker's dozen.
  14. Cody Christie posted an article today "Get To Know Trevor Hildenberger"
  15. What reasons have they given to not be trusted? They see these players every day. We see stat lines.
  16. Couldn't disagree more. This FO is actually making decisions on players instead of waiting for them to run out of options without any plan of using them on the MLB roster. I get that we all have our favorite MiLB players to follow, but I trust them coming up with the conclusion that he's not an MLB caliber arm.
  17. That's fair. Even though there is plenty more fat to trim, I like the fact that they're making decisions on players who have been on the 40 man for 2-3 years. Better than continuing to hope some of these RP prospects are going to do something.
  18. I like that the FO is continuing to trim the fat on the 40 man roster. Can't say I'm that upset Melotakis is no longer on it.
  19. ANNND He gets the call up to Minnesota today! Let's hope he does well. As we all know, Minnesota needs all the help they can get in that bullpen.
  20. I guess I don't know what some expect at this point. They didn't sign anyone in the winter for the rotation. 1 MLB contract was offered with Belisle. They're going to have to keep throwing darts at the board picking up random pitchers off the waiver wire, or trade a couple of prospects to acquire an MLB caliber arm.
  21. Not a big basketball follower, however Butler sounds like a guy you give up the farm for. Even better if they don't have to include Wiggins in the deal. The Wolves may finally become relevant again....
  22. Yes, changing the subject is good.... Didn't mean to dive into the machismo gutter. The sweeter the cobbler, the better!
  23. This is why I need her to proofread my posts!
  24. Another huge difference in verbiage between sexes: Details. We were catching up with a few friends on our recent trip to Cancun.... My version: "It was great! Lots of drinking, pool time, great wedding, and phenominal weather." Miss Vanimal's version: "Let me start from the beginning at the airport. I was wearing this and we went to the airport bar where I met a person who does this! Etc. Etc. Etc. Etc. Etc." For 10 minutes. Women. Can't live with them, can't live without them.
