    Well, I can’t keep putting off the laundry … I need to have underwear to wear to work tomorrow. I don’t do commando.
  2. Squirrel
    That is great all purpose usage there! For both the good and the bad! Lol!
  3. Squirrel
    Damn it … I missed it because I was putting clothes into the washing machine!
  4. Squirrel
    Well, that’s what happens when you put off for tomorrow what should have been done yesterday … lol
  5. Squirrel
    Sigh. Well, back to productivity … windows washed, balcony cleaned, outdoor furniture cleaned, now laundry

    There are people here who think using Duran anytime but the 9th is bad. Damned if you do, damned if you don’t.

    It’s the oldest DQ in Minnesota … lol. I used to live not far from there, east on Nebraska Ave, but closer to Lake Phalen. But that was almost 30 yrs ago
  8. Squirrel
    Not to change the topic from your great post, but you are near Lake Como? Ever go to that DQ on Lexington?

    My Dad was still Stateside when the war ended. He was in the Army-Air Corps training to be a bombardier. One of my uncles was a CB in the Navy. Was somewhere in the Pacific.

    Well, it’s the one thing they can praise, imo. The rest? And let the Lewis era begin! Came in from washing windows (that I didn’t do yesterday) just in time to see that. The spark is here.

    But, the thing is, we DO have above average starters, so not sure your point.

    Bottom line ... I don't like losing those who are hitting any more than the next person. I can't say how or why what decisions are made ... well above my pay grade ... doesn't mean I always like them, either. The only thing I can think is they didn't feel Wallner would get every day playing time (again, don't know why because I don't know the plan) and maybe they want him playing every day in St. Paul, knowing he will be back up soon? (When someone goes ... someone has to.) Just searching for rationale.

    The pitcher for Houston looks a little like Dobnak in that photo

    At this point, I'm more concerned that Miranda was a 'blip'. He didn't show a lot early on, then had a monster year in AAA, then a good rookie year for us last year. Now? I wonder if he was a blip. Hope not. But there is that possibility.
  15. Squirrel
    That's why I said, I'd rather have Wallner, for all you stated. I'd rather him up and hitting, because we need hitting. But, this is also the game. Players go up and down. While not what I would have done, it's not out of the realm of 'ordinary', and I don't think it sends a negative message to prospects as the poster I quoted stated.

    I posted this in the injuries update thread, but it’s pertinent here, too. Looks like no IL trip for now. But this tweet also signals they aren’t likely to go with 12 pitchers as @Hosken Bombo Disco suggested. If they do end up putting him on the IL not sure who there is to take his place. Trades need to happen, yet is it too soon for that?
  17. Squirrel
    FYI … in case some were wondering:
  18. Squirrel
    You are correct. Here’s the full transaction:
  19. Squirrel
    I’d rather have Wallner but it don’t think it sends a negative message, imo. I’m hoping Kepler is gone in a month or so, though.
  20. Squirrel
    Keep in mind he had to use his rifle arm because he misplayed a catchable ball. It worked out, because he has that arm. But we need his bat. I said in another thread about that same play. I’d rather have the bat and sacrifice a bit of the defense. I’m disappointed for Wallner, though, but he’d be sitting on a bench most days. I’m hoping that someone gets traded soon.
  21. Squirrel
    Not suggesting it is. Just trying to figure out how that fits in the moves to come if he moves to the IL
  22. Squirrel
    That was what they said in the game. Maybe I got that wrong. But whether arm or hip flexor, not sure he can stay off the IL
  23. Squirrel
    They said it was a hip flexor injury. But don’t know how serious
  24. Squirrel
    Someone has to be going on the 60-day or Garlick comes off the 40-man
  25. Squirrel
    Oh right. Totally forgot Larnach had pneumonia. I think Hosken’s suggestion has merit. Try one less pitcher. Although, until Pagán is put on the IL we are already down one
