  1. If I could speak all the languages of earth and of angels, but didn’t have pitching, I would only be a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 If I had the gift of prophecy, and if I understood all of God’s secret plans and possessed all knowledge, and if I had such faith that I could move mountains, but didn’t have pitching, I would be nothing. 3 If I gave everything I have to the poor and even sacrificed my body, I could boast about it; but if I didn’t have pitching, I would have gained nothing. 13 And now these three remain: hitting, fielding, and pitching. But the greatest of these is pitching.
  2. It's also interesting that if Boston wins the AL East these two teams probably will play each other again on Thursday in Houston.
  3. Yes. Twins fans should hope for a regular season tie between Boston and the Yankees. Make them use their best pitchers in the playoff game the day before we play the loser to open the postseason.
  4. And that's fine if that's what the manager and GM of a team decide, but my guess is that most teams would add a position player. I should have elaborated a little more on my other post regarding changes in the game. Pitching staffs have increased in size because pitchers are used much differently and more batters work deep counts now compared to 40 years ago. I think it would improve the game to give managers the increased flexibility of having one more player on the roster.
  5. I think for this year only, whoever is chosen by whatever voting system is used should have the title of Slightly-More-Valuable-Than-Several-Other-Players Player.
  6. This is just one of many pieces of evidence that make it obvious that pitching is where the Twins will be looking regarding trades and free agents. As an aside, I think it's time to acknowledge that the game has changed and increase the roster size to 26.
  7. Thank you for this grammatically impeccable opener!
  8. I think any baseball is OK, especially the finals of the state high school tournament. I guess other stuff helps pay the bills but I cringe thinking about despoiling a beautiful ballpark.
  9. I gave up all hope when Kintzler was traded.
  10. I've never made a mistake in my life. There was one time when I thought I had but it turned out I was mistaken.
  11. OK, well, occasionally restrain myself.
  12. Not in my humble opinion. Actually not humble, but I am usually able to restrain myself. Except when what should be McCoys is written McCoy's.
  13. I'm self-reporting hoping that the sanctions won't be as severe.
  14. Undecacycle. -1 for spelling error.
  15. Undacacycle includes error, catcher's interference and fielder's interference.
  16. Bud Grant would be rolling over in his grave. If he were dead.
  17. Subway commercial with the Ramones doing the Trashmen. Always loved that.
  18. That shot of the stands reveals that tonight is Twins' tuque night.
  19. One atom of that pitch was in the strike zone. Which is all that's required.
  20. The Tigers outfielder didn't catch it either.
  21. Can someone be a little emasculated?
  22. If Gibson pitched for the Tigers he'd be their ace. Unless he would have been traded away.
