  1. My two sons both eschew Tabasco and the like in favor of sriracha. That sauce sounds yummy.
  2. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KxfEGF48WFg
  3. So which of these teams lost 103 games last year and which of these teams played in the postseason? Such is baseball.
  4. Now that I read the other posts I'll correct myself that it wasn't the last time we reached the WS.
  5. Actually it was the West Division but the rest is accurate. 85-77 regular season, fifth best in the league, then lucked into having the home field advantage in the playoffs and the WS because back then it rotated instead of being awarded based on the record. Flukiest World Championship team ever.
  6. Yawn, another typical line drive double to right by Mauer.
  7. That's big boy territory right there.
  8. You probably make an exception when Mauer is the batter.
  9. These nicknames hearken back to about 30 years ago when Chris Berman on ESPN was topical and funny. SportsCenter and Baseball Tonight were must-see back in the pre-internet days. His nicknames were not really nicknames but they were often entertaining. I always liked Bert "Be Home" Blyleven.
  10. Haven't read and probably won't read much of this. I was traveling during much of the game and listened to the Texas radio feed on Sirus/XM for most of the first few innings. There was something the Rangers announcers did correctly that none of the Twins announcers do. In Spanish s is pronounced s. Not z. One would think that the least someone making their living on the airwaves could do is make the effort to pronounce names correctly, especially baseball announcers saying Hispanic names. Minor issue, yes, but it bugs me.
  11. A reliever makes sense. They may have a lot of off days in the near future but they probably need another reliever today. I guess Boshers is the logical choice for a short-term bullpen guy, then when they need a fifth starter Berrios. At least that's who it better be. Another comment regarding Haley: I would guess that most teams probably have a very low threshold for injuries when it comes to DLing and reactivating Rule 5 guys. Keep them on the DL as long as possible so they can use someone else in games.
  12. He was ranked as the top high school senior in the country and signed a letter of intent to play quarterback at Florida State.
  13. NO. That would be worse than the red.
  14. Who are these guys scoring runs and what have they done with the Twins?
  15. If it were me I'd be breaking new wind.
  16. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eats,_Shoots_%26_Leaves
  17. Good read by Buck to tag on that.
  18. They'll be here the first weekend in August.
  19. April 16, 2018. You've got plenty of time.
  20. One atom of the ball was in the strike zone.
  21. Off topic (as is typical in game threads), I'm marching for science tomorrow.
