  1. Haha Well my lady friend does PR and 200 bucks an hour gets her in the door. I'll settle for a six pack and a crumpled wad of whatever ones and fives you crammed in your jeans pocket. Sixer must be at least one shelf below middle. No Schlitz. Contact Dynamo Logistics LLC PO Box 1147, Las Cruces, NM, 85304 for more information
  2. Dick totally went with the Corvair allusion. When did they stop making those things?
  3. I assume we will use Meyer in a low leverage situation later in this game when our exhausted bullpen has spotted five or six runs to Cleveland
  4. Who hits a major league home run in this season first. I should have been clear. I'm not sure it's Suzuki.
  5. Who hits a home run first? Suzuki or Buxton?
  6. I meant to add that it sure didn't look sold out on the telecast. Woops.
  7. The wrap informs me it was a "sellout" "crowd"
  8. The notion that learning right field will negatively affect Mr. Sano's hitting is an unconvincing assertion. At best it is an unproven assumption, at worst it is junk psychology.
  9. I'm in DC Metro. I saw today that Josh Willingham is at the Nationals's camp, and Jacque Jones is their assistant hitting coach
  10. I have the audio from the MLB At Bat app, but it ain't free
  11. John, the apparatus wherein a plastic bag is filled with legal and benign vapors is known as a volcano. It may be an instance of brand metonymy, as for example rollerblades standing in for inline skates generally. Twins go 78-84. Big fan of the show.
  12. Could you say a little more about changes to Buxton's mechanics? I hope it is not oracular that you included that paragraph in an article whose leader was the story of a highly regarded five tool outfield prospect who lost his swing when instructors tweaked his mechanics.
  13. Somebody posted Mauer's slash line with RISP earlier in the thread (thank you; I'm much too lazy to backscroll three or four pages). I've been wondering about how the defense has to play him with runners in scoring position. A lot of the Twins Daily write ups of his decline have asserted that he is losing hits to the aggressive shifts opposing teams put on him, which explains some of the decreased production. It seems reasonable that having runners on second or third or both would take away the infield shift, but would it affect the outfield shift? Does anyone who has been able to see more games than I have have eyes on how the defense aligns with risp? Does anybody who understands how on earth to use Fangraphs have any saberoptometry that evinces something? In a word, what situations make it too risky or too impractical to shift on Mauer in infield or outfield, and how much does that affect his "clutch" production or his otherwise production? Just a thought
  14. Why does May as starter have more inherent value than May as reliever? That is to say why is the perceived value of starters so much greater than that of relievers (except Mariano Rivera, Matt Capps, and other bullpen gods)? I assert that pitching roles are mere convention and that most excellent relievers would have been what this forum has often projected May to be:a middle of the rotation starter. Nobody ever said on TD that I remember reading that he was a staff ace to be. It seems that we have lots of pitchers in the same class as may. Caveat: I'm a philistine
  15. The Baltimore pundits frothed at the mouth over Duffey's curve. But they also noted that Miguel Gonzales had a great start to the year but couldn't keep it up. A lot of posters wanted Berrios. Now I'm curious about Duffey. That he is unknown must have been a benefit. Does his minor league history affirm that he's good enough to start indefinitely?
