  1. 1. Molitor hasn't seen your charts. 2. Pressly's arm hasn't fallen off yet. That's all I have.
  2. It had to be the throw. He had at least half a step on your grandmother.
  3. I gre up about half-way between Boston and New York. I didn't hate the Red Sox or their fans, but Yankee fans were just obnoxious. It helped that Red Sox fans could be reigned in by mentioning 1918 - very convenient for a Vikings fan.
  4. Those all sound like coin-flip propositions. The odds of heads coming up 5 times in a row is 1/32. Therefore, our pitchers should be throwing 5 no-hitters a year. I think we need to fire the pitching coach.
  5. So now that he's back in low-A, where isheon our prospects list?
  6. And lying down on the job - get up, Joe.
  7. I stumbled across a YouTube video titled "Think You Can Hit a Big League Pitcher?" It was video from a GoPro mounted on a catcher for a bullpen session with Dillon Gee. I was ready to grab a bat.
  8. At least you stored it appropriately.
  9. So you're saying just watching Belisle pitch will make our hitters start hitting? I guess it seemed to work for the batters he has faced this year... OK, cheap shot not based in fact. He had barely pitched and hasn't been horrible, and the ERA of 5.06 is probably more SSS than actual performance.
  10. The only base I remember him stealing is the one he took from Ron Gant.
  11. I skipped 2 and went part way to 3 - Lou Brock has to be in there, and I would probably drop Wilson.
  12. I would drop Mota and add Tim Raines. And then think some more. And then cheat. (I haven't done the last two yet, but I'm about to.)
  13. In the photo, it looks he got into position and then timed his jump well. That's very unlike his usual technique, which is to run back at full speed, leap with total disregard to the location of the wall, and then crash awkwardly with bone-jarring force. Maybe DHS has better coaching (except for that wall direction thing).
  14. For his long-term health, he needs to stay away from walls.
  15. Sano finally manages to lay off the pitch down and away, and it gets called a strike.
  16. I didn't realize it was an early game until a couple of minutes ago. Is it too late to grab a wing?
  17. It wouldn't be too much of a stretch to have a pitcher pinch-hit for the catcher and then have Garver go behind the plate.
  18. That's not necessarily an either/or situation. Some can do both at the same time. (For the record, I'm not drunk.)
  19. I remember hearing about that. I think the ADA announced they were dropping the recommendation because the studies hadn't actually been done to confirm the benefit. I assumed it was so obviously a good practice that he studies weren't needed. It's like telling kids "don't put your hand on the hot stove or you will get burned." "I'm not sure I believe you, dad. Have the double-blind studies been done to verify that" "Fine, I'm dropping my recommendation."
  20. She has to take some time off to nag, doesn't she?
  21. I thought we sent your jokes back down to Rochester after the doubleheader yesterday. (That one was pretty darned funny, but I will probably end up sharing it with my wife and she won't find it funny at all.)
  22. The last 2B from A&M I remember the Twins drafting worked out pretty well (for a while.)
  23. Maybe we can spot them 7 so we can win by 1 instead of losing by 1.
  24. It was spent, then in-spent. Now it only helps if it's (wisely) re-spent.
