    Keep stringing those hits together, boys!
  2. spinowner
    Sanó hit that too hard.
  3. spinowner
    It's a first baseman thing tonight, apparently.
  4. spinowner
    Maybe not Machado.
  5. spinowner
    Roy, this isn't the disco era. Fasten another button.
  6. spinowner
    Point well taken. So whom do you think we could have traded for and at what cost?
  7. spinowner
    This is the bird I'm most interested in at the moment.

    They are very close to it. And they will probably pick up a couple pieces before the trading deadline to put the hammer down. At least I would if I were running that team. This is the year for them to go all in. And for that reason they would make a better offer than the Twins would for either of these pitchers. Or pretty much anyone else who is available.

    It's not so much what the FO was thinking. It's what the high-caliber relievers were thinking. And they were all thinking, "Twins? No thanks."

    I'm not real sure, but I think it may be a Vermilion Flycatcher.

    Those of us who actually live in Minnesota know it's the nickname for Minnesota United FC. (I haven't watched one bit of any of their games, even highlights.)

    Every GM/CBO (chief baseball officer) will make any trade involving any player at any time if he/she feels it will be a net gain for the organization. The Twins could probably come out ahead by trading Santana before August 1, but it all depends on the offer. This will be an interesting 4 weeks.

    OK, time for the offense to pick Ervin up here.
  14. spinowner
    Yep, this is on Ervin, part fielding and part pitching.
  15. spinowner
    Oh, FFS.

    You're doing it wrong. Look for barbecue and go to Hickory Park on Duff, just north of US30.

    House of Chen on East Lincoln Way.

    Interesting coincidence because Sunday is also middle day 2017. It's the 183rd day of the year, with 182 days before and 182 days after.

    My wife was born in and grew up in Ames. Her parents still live there. Her dad is a retired ISU aerospace engineering professor. We all await your apology.

    I don't know about you, but I'd much rather play baseball than football.

    At this point, it seems like a long-shot for him to make an appearance in the future.

    What's more difficult to measure is how good of a baserunner a player is. TK once said that Kent Hrbek was a very good baserunner, and I'm sure what he meant by that was that Hrbek could read batted balls well and could judge well whether he'd be able to take an extra base in any given situation. Of course there was that pickoff at second base in the 1987 WS... And when it comes to stolen bases knowing how large of a lead to take and when to make the move are critical skills to possess. Speed can compensate for deficiencies there but only to a limited extent.
  23. spinowner
    Well, certainly not that yellow snow.
  24. spinowner
    I may be totally wrong but I'm a dancing fool.

    Man, it was almost 7 AM CDT before this was posted. I was starting to worry.
