    Jorge!

    The way I remember it Sano was showing up the opposing team after homering. I think Smith was correct in teaching good sportsmanship to the young man.

    Right now I'm hoping for Kirk.

    The way this is going the three beers I had with lunch may not be enough. (Kidding about the first part but not about the second part.)
  5. spinowner
    Wish it could be Bob for once.

    Three batters in and I'm afraid I know the answer.

    This is an interesting point. HS hockey players can leave school for junior hockey. There are a number of private high schools that have missions to develop on-court skills for basketball players. I'm not aware of anything similar for baseball players.

    I think the Buxton Era started on June, 4, 2012. He has matured and improved since that date and that will continue. It's a process, but he will be a top-flight major leaguer.

    The point is well taken but I still won't wear the shirt after the 24th. And don't take my point as being real important. The shirt has no impact one way or the other about whether I'll go or how much I enjoy the event.

    That's so sinkerballer. When they are good they are very very good. And when they are bad they are horrid.

    One or five for each of us. If the attendance is 50 that means hoisting 50 or 250. Better get a winch.

    The one that drives Mrs. spinowner up the wall is: "I have throat cancer. Am I going to die?" She has threatened more than once to turn the game off.

    Neil Patrick Harris pinch running at first base.

    Just got around to reading this thread. I had seen the shirt design but hadn't stopped to think about it. I've always been a Twins fan, and it hurts to see them having such a bad year. I don't like dissing the team. I'll wear the shirt that day (I have my price, and free drinks meets my price) but after that it's going in the donate-to-charity pile.

    Yes, it's true that I have greater life experience than most who will attend.

    This is actually not far off. You remember Rafael Palmeiro doing ads for Viagra? One of the common side effects of overuse of steroids in males is atrophy of the gonads. It's not too often that an otherwise healthy man in his 30's has a problem that would make Viagra necessary. I'd call it a smoking gun but that image is pretty much the opposite of the actual situation.

    The you know what is something that is now randomly tested for in the major leagues.

    Dozier's first AB, solo HR. Dozier's second AB, 2-run HR. Now he's up with 2 runners on.

    Reminds me of the time Rosario stole third in Detroit when the shift was on. I thought it was a great heads-up play but he got criticized for it. This was a good heads-up play by Rosario and Glynn.
  20. spinowner
    If this continues Dozier may become the first non-juicer to hit 62.
  21. spinowner
    Are you kidding me!?
  22. spinowner
    Just like me. I may be short, but I'm slow.
  23. spinowner
    I hope it is something else and not this. We should not be thinking of Buxton as a power hitter, not at age 22. If he continues to hit well he needs to be at the top of the lineup. I could change my mind in a few years if he hits 25 or 30 dingers in a season, but even then I'd bat him third with Sano in the cleanup spot.
  24. spinowner
    Just watched the video of Sano's blast. There have been a dozen or so third deck dingers at Target Field but that one got there way faster than any of the other ones. I've said it before and I'll say it again. He will hit one over the third deck. He's only 23, so he doesn't even have his man-muscles yet!
  25. spinowner
    I guess it wasn't a bust. It was a flop. http://twinsdaily.com/topic/22046-sorrybuxton-is-a-flop/
