  1. Tony Romo supposedly is hanging it up instead of playing for a different team. If I'm looking at the scoreboard correctly.... Father Time: 1,000,000,000,000 Every other athlete: 0
  2. Yeah the Shariff news puts a wrench in my idea.
  3. Ahh, AOL dial up... Get off the computer Disco, I need to make a phone call!
  4. I hope the FO dictates the battle between Vielma and Gordon for SS playing time. Vielma from all we've read is the better fielding SS right now, but long term Gordon is the better prospect. I'd like to read about Gordon starting at SS the majority of the season. Potential wins be damned.
  5. I'm not hoping they lose baseball games either. Literally a week ago the concensus on this site was this is a ~75 win team. So if that's the case, what good is it to have Erv Santana doing well on a 75 win team? He can provide real value in a trade getting MLB ready players in return. And the Twins get out before Santana's end of career decline. If they are above .500 and sniff a wild card on July 30, **** it and go for it. Until that happens I'm operating under the assumption that this is a non playoff 75 win team.
  6. Let's not get lost in the weeds. In the big picture theyre still multiple pitchers away from playoff contention. If Erv keeps it up, I sure would like a nice haul of prospects to help make the next step toward being a playoff team.
  7. And I appreciate that logic. Can't have it both ways where we say ST stats don't matter then get upset because Park did well in ST. Power hitters aren't viewed the same around the league. Chris Carter, Pedro Alvarez, etc. had a difficult time finding employment. Park's in the same boat as them IMO.
  8. Given the choice, I'm hoping for the latter to be honest.
  9. I actually don't mind Mauer in the 4 spot. Get on base so Sano can drive him in.
  10. It's always nice to plan ahead in life, but this ad I'm seeing for senior citizen independent living may be outside of my demographic....
  11. Uhhhhh, according to the TV broadcast, divide that number by 2... Then DOUBLE it. And divide it by 3 and that's the real attendance number.
  12. Blue Jays Cleveland Seattle Boston Houston Nationals Cubs Giants Dodgers Mets Dodgers over Boston
  13. This is my favorite stat of all time!
  14. That K rate for Sano is frightening.... Says negative nancies 3 days ago.
  15. Haven't been following the thread but in case if this is due, Happy Birthday Mike!
  16. Thanks Bark! We convinced our cousins to move over to the bar area and watch the game to escape family drama happening in the next room over. Best decision we've made today!
  17. Might as well shut down the lights. Season's over. First pitch is a ball.
  18. Pretty much. It's my first time seeing these guys this year.. Bert also has new glasses I see.
  19. Twins game is on at VFW where post memorial is at.. Sano looks good with dreads!
  20. Not gonna be on here today as it's my uncle's memorial service... 59 is too early to go and cancer is a *****... Have no fear, the Twins will win today because my uncle would want a win on this day. Enjoy opening day everyone.
  21. Happy birthday Mike! You don't look a day over sixt.... fift.... fourt.... 29! Enjoy the day!
  22. I agree that this is the strategy they're utilizing. However, I don't think this is the right way to operate... This organization is littered with so many middling players that haven't moved the organization forward. There should be no fear of losing guys like Tonkin, D Santana, Vargas, etc.
  23. Who had Bumgarner leading the league in HRs after today? Dude is a beast!
  24. Been flipping back and forth between hockey and baseball. Already I've seen 2 replay reviews in the Yankees Rays game. The process still takes longer than it should.
  25. Vargas has a long ways to go to prove he could be a full time DH. I doubt he's on this team next season. Park's projection is aggressive. Hope you're right. If Grossman is hitting at a .676 OPS clip, then he shouldn't get 200 ABs and should be released. His defense was/is horrendous. If he doesn't match his offensive performance last year he has negative value on this team.
