  1. I should have jumped on Legion earlier after y'all were raving about it. I'm completely bought in.
  2. Anybody there to give an update on Hughes' velocity readings?
  3. Dubs has been bad, very bad over this stretch of games. It's about time he takes a break for a while, and then he can be the primary goalie again in the playoffs. For the duration of the season, I would switch Kuemps with Dubs, and give him some rest until the playoff stretch.
  4. Hypothetically, since they're far away from being WS contenders, they'd have to go with the route the Royals took. Sacrificing prospects for good to great rentals to help them get over the hump. The best route IMO to finding a front line starter is through trade. It's not realistic to think that all of Gonsalves, Stewart, Romero, Jay, whoever else I'm forgetting will make an impact in the MLB. I'd gladly trade one or more to acquire someone who can provide an impact if they are close to being contenders.
  5. I nominate Dinger for a thread or 6.
  6. What have we been marinating for 2 years? Filet Mignon? NY Strip? Edit: If you can't tell I am starving right now.
  7. LOVE shepherd's pie.... One of my favorite things to order at the British Pubs down here in Austin.
  8. Just think of me as your recently divorced game threadin' dad... You'll only see once a month on the weekends, and others will have to keep you company the rest of the month!
  9. So, nothing to see here. Cool.
  10. Concur. They'll never be comfortable to hand out $100+ MM contracts to FA pitchers... It's a bit silly to think they'll be in contention of signing Cueto, Arietta, etc. Falvey was brought on to acquire talent in other ways besides opening up the checkbook and handing out 9 figure contracts. I'd like them to be buyers for sure, but through trades, international signings, and other routes. And like you, I'd rather they pony up and hand out lengthy extensions to Buxton, Sano, and whomever else breaks out in the future.
  11. Top O' the mornin' to ya! Hope you started off your day with a shot of Jameson or some Bailey's Irish coffee! Or maybe you started off your morning searching for a pot o' gold, eating some Lucky Charms! Either way, Happy St. Patty's Day to you all! It's also National Corned Beef and Cabbage Day if you really want to get in the spirit of things!
  12. There's no doubt we'll be selling something that day! I'll volunteer for other games soon.
  13. Well, as a positive, Pitino should be staying in Minnesota... That's usually the first fear we have, when X coach leaves for a better job.
  14. A new show that came out that is good so far is "Trial and Error" on NBC. It's a comedy, and produced in a mockumentary style similar to The Office and Parks and Recreation. They're basically making fun of "Making a Murderer", the Jinx, Serial, and all of the other crime TV shows out there.
  15. Rosario is always going to be one part intriguing, and another part frustrating. When he's on at the plate, he's tearing the cover off the ball. When he's off, he's a near automatic out. We saw that in April/May last year. That's the biggest concern since he doesn't draw walks. I don't expect him to draw a ton of walks, but it sure would make those slumps easier to handle if he did.
  16. The first 5 players in their lineup for sure. The last 4, can't say I've heard of them before. So your statement is valid!
  17. They're broadcasting gophers playing basketball? I mean, I've heard of the Puppy Bowl, but this is another level!
  18. The pie on your neighbor's windowsill two days ago. It was delicious!
  19. I think it's starting the year in AAA getting every day reps until my veteran C material becomes ineffective.
  20. Gotta save my A material for the regular season! Whine Line Game Thread Edition is hopefully going to start out on fire! Literally! http://archives.right-thinking.com/images/uploads/joker-burning-money.jpg
  21. Who's calling the game for the Twins? Bremer?
  22. While that sounds extremely interesting for a game thread topic.... I'm, uh, busy? And, um.... Just going to slowly.back.out.of.this.conversation..... http://gifrific.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/no-words-homer-into-brush.gif
  23. Hot off the presses at Fangraphs, "Spring Training Divisional Outlook: AL Central"
  24. Anybody but Vogelsong. Let's go Mejia!
