    Well, you heard him, fellas. Let's none of us visit TwinsDaily for the next three weeks.

    Dude, like...man...

    I'm going to add Park to that list, courtesy of South Korean baseball fans.

    Unless, of course, all nine starters fall victim to nine separate misfortunes and are unable to play in April. But that will never happen. Three misfortunes, that's possible. Seven misfortunates, there's an outside chance. But nine misfortunes? I'd like to see that!

    Small sample, but oh yes he has. .400/.441/.545 in Rochester last year.

    Burd up.

    I sort of think Gossage's comments from yesterday are pretty sweet as well. One think I always liked about older generations of baseball and hockey is the way that players, in a way, really governed themselves. Honoring an unwritten code of respect is not some brutal, archaic practice. Everywhere you go in life, everything you do--you pay your dues. Having said that, I tend to agree with Harper's sentiments, particularly as a Twins fan. This has long been an extremely boring franchise. But, I think that it has more to do with the corporate culture/demeanor that ball players (and, really, all players in all pro sports nowadays) are compelled to exhibit. I'd like to see these guys be real guys, with real emotion, passion and opinions. I like Harper's sincerity. I like to see a guy like Gossage fly off the handle for the sake of his convictions. I also like Cespedes' rebuttal ("He's a pitcher, right?"). It sort of seems like everybody wants the same thing. This old guard versus young hotshots is a tired old story, and it's probably just a thing for people to write about.

    It's a position of need for the Dodgers. I think we should try and leverage Nolasco's early success and make a strong push for BBQ flavor.

    Who's this jerk? What did I miss?
  14. Pardon My Dinger
    Whatever. I was pretty sure he'd be a good 3B. If fat Pablo can do it (and he can--he's a good 3B), then Big Mig can do it. Having said that, I'm all done with the caring. Just let the kid be large and DH.

    Are people afraid to put Sano at 40? I think he'll get there.
  16. Pardon My Dinger
    The White Sox are going to be bad, man. Twins will have the better record. Head-to-Head, though, I think the series will be closer, since I doubt our guys will blast the unholy crap out of Sale every time they see him. Then again, his elbow is bound to snap into teeny tiny pieces any moment now, so maybe that won't be an issue.

    Here's what probably happened. Somebody got the impression that he doesn't want to play the field because his english is not perfect. He probably said something like "I just want to hit." i.e, it doesn't matter to me, as long as I'm in the lineup. This sort of thing happens all the time.
  18. Pardon My Dinger
    Beg pardon?

    I like the solid-red hat. I was afraid they'd go two-tone with a blue bill--an oft-used faux pas in my opinion. But, I hate when pants and jersey don't match, and the gold doesn't have the same pop on a red backdrop as it does with the whites.
  20. Pardon My Dinger
    They're going to be pretty bad. All due respect to Miggy, but this is pretty much the same bunch of used-up old codgers from last year. Then you consider that their LF out of the gate last year was Cespedes, and Upton doesn't look so hot anymore. Then, you try to imagine a universe where Zimmerman is anywhere remotely close to David Price's calibur, and all of a sudden, it's not looking good for the kitties.
  21. Pardon My Dinger
    I respectfully pass.

    Probably not a JR Graham autograph.

    Correction: four. I think you forgot 2016.

    Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa...whoa, hold on. The Maestro is back? That can't be right.

    Trevor May, 2016 All Star reliever. He's awesome coming out of the pen. It's less innings, yes, but I like the idea of having him contribute to way more games throughout the season.
