  1. Hmm ... wouldn't expect that ... now ... if I ate my cbd lotion with thc, I could see that ... but I'm not going to be eating either. I'll save my stomach for that pan-fried catfish and rhubarb custard pie
  2. Tiger Balm ... I like the smell of it
  3. Interesting ... my feed tonight ... no commercials! Just silence with an image on the screen saying 'Commercial Break in Progress' ... not complaining ... just surprised
  4. Whoever is activated next it will be Miranda sent down. It's who is activated after that ... who goes down? Maybe a pitcher?
  5. Well, and then Correa, too ... gonna have a tough decision then
  6. Well ... or they could option Larnach down to get some playing time? He didn't make the trip with them, did he? I expect Correa to be activated this week, but not sure exactly when. And then Miranda goes down, I guess? It's going to be interesting and likely not what any of us thinks should happen ...
  7. Not sure if it was today or sometime this week. Garlick was the one activated today, and Contreras sent down, but the reports I read said sometime the week of the 16th.
  8. Btw ... lineups are in: TWINS 1. Byron Buxton (R) CF 2. Jorge Polanco (S) 2B 3. Kyle Garlick (R) DH 4. Gio Urshela (R) 3B 5. Gary Sanchez (R) C 6. Gilberto Celestino (R) RF 7. Jose Miranda (R) 1B 8. Royce Lewis (R) SS 9. Nick Gordon (L) LF A's 1. Tony Kemp (L) 2B 2. Jed Lowrie (S) DH 3. Ramon Laureano (R) RF 4. Seth Brown (L) 1B 5. Sean Murphy (R) C 6. Elvis Andrus (R) SS 7. Luis Barrera (L) LF 8. Kevin Smith (R) 3B 9. Cristian Pache (R) CF
  9. How can you call that ugly? I mean ... I have never seen such a big smile on a fish before as the photo you've posted. I mean ... and only such a beautiful smile could belong to a beautiful creature. It's not ugly.
  10. yeah ... when ordering it off a menu, I'm usually looking for the adjective 'farm raised' in there somewhere Catch them too big or too old, not as tasty
  11. Welcome to TD! We don't have a separate 'get to know you' thread running currently, but this, a game thread, is really the best place to jump in, with both feet! If you have any questions about posting and navigating on the site, just ask me or one of the other community leaders or moderators and we'll help you out. Oh, and if you want to start a game thread ... we are always looking for eager volunteer! Just hit up @stringer bell ... and he'll get you into the schedule and let you know what's what.
  12. Very cool, @Dave The Dastardly, on your book! And one thing I enjoy is pan fried catfish … yum! oh, and rhubarb! Rhubarb custard pie is great! Why do these threads always make me hungry?
  13. We’ve actually had quite the discussion in the forums the last couple of days.
  14. Reports were that both would be ready the week of the 16th, so … whoever is activated for today (and I’m assuming Garlick), I think both will be on the active roster soon
  15. Contreras officially optioned to St. Paul (we all knew he'd be the first to go) ... but I wonder if someone is being activated? Garlick, who did make the trip to Oakland with them? Correa is also on the trip, maybe he's ready?
  16. Work hardening is a thing. This can't be managed on the IL. And if he goes on the IL, who comes up? There's no one. So, let's work it this way. Work hardening is what my work does when a player comes off an injury and needs to rebuild strength without worry of reinjury. Just like pitchers build up to going more innings, maybe Buxton has to build up to play more games. However they manage to get him out there as many times as possible, I guess that's the answer. As frustrating as it is. I wanted to hope that we'd see him in 130 games this year. I guess that was an unrealistic goal. It is what it is. Thankfully, we seem to have adequate subs this year. And hopefully Buxton contributes to a win each and every time he is on the field. If we win the games he plays in and he plays in 100 games, that's a pretty good season, imho.
  17. I'm older than you and have been a Twins fan since the mid-60s. My recipe for winning is to score more than the other team, however you manage it. Some days you'll score a lot of runs and win; some days you won't score many but the pitching was great, so you still win. Winning is what matters to me. I don't care if they win scoring 1 run or 10. Just win. Again, I'm older than you.
  18. It's a long season with 162 games. Not every game thread can be 12 pages long. When it's nice outside, go outside and enjoy it! Glad you liked the poll!
  19. Oh come on stringer … lol … it’s NEGATIVE NELLIE … all caps and spelled correctly ? Dont poop on it.
  20. That 2nd inning in the White Sox game … fly out, fly out, single, lotta walks, WP … 1 hit, 3 runs
