  1. Joey "Down Goes Frazier" Bats?
  2. If they've gotta go with vets, I want some that are mean and nasty, and not shy about dusting off opposing batters once in a while. Let's see... what are Goose Gossage or Al Hrabosky doing these days?
  3. Tangy choice. I'm not sour on this at all, I think it's a good dill. In fact, I hope he can make our club play more crisply, like they're full of p*ss and vinegar... Shall I stop now?

  5. That is a little funky delivery. I like even more how he gets it, and throws it, without a bunch of messing around.
  6. Zoiks. I'm kinda thinking this Eaton trade is going to be the Nats' version of the Wilson Ramos trade. Some kind of freaky karma there...

  8. On this issue, I'm always reminded of what the late, great Eddie Matthews said-- "I could hit a bullet if it's straight."

  10. Thanks. I had, until today.
  11. You know, back when they started messing around making May a reliever, I was wondering why they didn't do that with Gibby instead-- Still think it's a viable option for him. Hey, how about we flip-flop those two? How about it Falvey & co?
  12. Oh, fer.... New regime, typical Twins FO behavior. Letting potentially quality guys go for nothing. Well, at least we got a good look at him in September when... Oh, wait. We decided to ride GMan and Schafer instead of seeing what a young power bat that we had under team control could do. *sigh* Stuff like this, and keeping Molly around for another year of head-scratching decisions make me wonder why I even follow this team any more.
  13. Yeh. I guess the old 'rub some dirt on it' procedure may be passe by now.
  14. Yes, Dozey to 3B would be a great move.
  15. I agree that Maddon's bullpen moves in games 6 and 7 were illogical. And my tricorder went haywire on that bunt attempt.
  16. At last! Finally found a couple of pix from that magical night-- I know there are more around somewhere, but hey, that was life in the pre-digital age, eh?

  18. He is my GUY! I was really surprised to see English in the AFL, rather than Granite. I'm hoping for big things in Rochester for him, and maybe even a taste of the show. Speed guys, though, don't exactly have a long shelf life before it starts to diminish. I hope he plays is way into a role with the big club soon!
  19. Aye aye. Thing #1 has got to be stop making the incredibly stupid decisions they've undertaken the past couple of years- like Trevor May and Alex Meyer in the bullpen, and Mr. Sano to the OF- moves that even the most casual fan on the sidewalk would never consider. Like holding on to Mr. Plouffe way, way, way past his sell-by date. Like letting a solid catcher like John Hicks just fall through the AAA cracks, going on to post a +.900 OPS, through sheer not-paying-attention. Need I go on? I can, and that's the saddest part. Any question about pitchers who don't work out here, and go on to blossom elsewhere, as soon as they're out of the Twinkie tutelage? The utterly ridiculous grab-bag lineups that Molly threw out there day after day? The way he jerked around nearly every kid who came up to the bigs? OK, I'll stop now, but only because I'm tired, not because I ran out of stupid. So, how about it, new guy? Can you stop that fools' parade?
  20. Man! I am sure glad we gave that nice, long look in September to Logan Schafer, instead of wasting all those ABs on, oh, say.... ABW II. Pfft-- punk kid was something like Rochester's MVP, so what.... nothing to see here, folks. Gawd, this team, and the decisions they made this last couple of years. I am SO not on board with any of the dugout staff coming back next year.
