  1. I'm just gonna leave this here: Tillman getting super roughed up thru 1 inning...... by Tampa Bay. I don't think that means anything....... Right?
  2. I have an uncle that has a Polka Band in the Milwaukee area..... they specialize in playing gigs in the back of U-Hauls, Budget Trucks, etc. I haven't seen him in a quarter century, but you should look him up. Think his band goes by the name the Kenosha Kickers....... https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qil1dj2HKSA/maxresdefault.jpg
  3. It's going to be a long season w/ the pitiful ABs leading to a Twins record of K's for the season, while teams put pressure on us every inning. Thats just not fun baseball.
  4. Are Plungers considered tools???
  5. If only Rod Beck was still playing..... err maybe he'd only need to be alive (my apologies if you found that too morbid). http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2003-05-19/sports/0305190167_1_winnebago-autograph-triple-a-iowa-cubs
  6. A quick take on the difference between best and worst OF. I think 10 runs seems incredibly low over the course of the season (but I really have no idea). There is a big unknown in the cause and effect between the two. Take into factor, a 2 out gapper that the best OF tracks down. Out of the inning. The worst OF does not track down, even if no runners on and no runs scored, the rest of this inning is unknown, next guy up hits a 2 Run HR. Or our SP throws an extra 20 pitches in the inning, and need to go to bullpen at the start of a 10 day road trip w/ 0 off days. How many runs/W/L does that lead to.
  7. This sounds serious...... is this serious??? I'm 14 years removed from a C+ in Astronomy, and I didn't even know this. Do we need to petition NASA to start sending Astronauts back on the moon...... to ya know, add some extra weight to slow it down?
  8. I'd love to have a chance at DP. But I was responding to a post that brings up Pitcher A's lack of success in the post season as to why he shouldn't be considered, while clamoring for Pitcher B but ignoring that he has even less success than Pitcher A in the post season.
  9. And David Price has a sterling track record of pitching in the playoffs????
  10. Pretty sure thats Denver, with the North pictured at the bottom of the photo. I initially thought Tampa as well.
  11. Another Iowan and Twins draftee (did not sign) that I played against in HS that faired better, we were ahead 6-3 in the B7th vs Marshaltown HS. Non-conference game, so had our 2nd teir pitchers going, as the bases were loaded w/ 2 outs. Up comes Jeff Clemente (Sea & Pit), as he blasts one over the right feild fence for the walk off. I see he also took over the HS record for most HR's from a player that was already mentioned, Drew Henson. Great Game.
  12. Not much Iowa representation- I Struck out Ryan Sweeney when he was a 9th grader to my Sr year. So Ryan Sweeney.
  13. Gosh, all this time I used to hate other teams for manipulating the system, and acquiring players that help themselves make/win in the playoffs. Come to find out that's normal......? Time to rethink some of lifes certancies. *Are white cotton panties sexier undergarments than something I've never even heard of before? *Are sandwiches really the best food in the world? Whoa, that's all I can handle right now.
  14. Seems to me, that the BB/K ratio and BAPIP would directly correlate to OBP. A player w/ that large of a gap between K's and BB, means they would have to carry an incredible BAPIP to have a productive OPB. Now, in Sano, ABW case as has been stated, their OPB and run production is most likely going to be valued more than OBP, but at some point, those runners on 3rd w/ less than 2 outs have to be driven in, and that's not happening w/ a K.
  15. It would behoove me to turn Dick, Bert/Roy and Marnie down on the TV and follow here..... I laughed so hard I cried, which was a nice cover during the top of 8th..... crap..... and the 9th too.
  16. Obviously your not a bullpen arm
  17. Being a Cedar Rapidian I take offen....... ahhh Crap, I got nothing.
  18. Thinking exact same thing. Surely I respect Moli for not using him, but couldn't we fill that 25th spot w/ a better use?
