    What did they do?

    I wish that we could know what insurance the Twins have in place, and how this stacks up with other teams. For example, some real estate owners don't carry earthquake insurance because of the expense, some carry it because they are conservative, and some carry it but with a very high deductible to reduce the expense. Insurance companies probably make a big profit on this, so it might make sense to "self-insure", i.e. eat the losses when they occur. Unlike earthquake losses, the loss of a highly paid player can be covered with a replacement player who is paid the MLB minimum. I wish Hughes the best and hope that there is some insurance.

    The Mets have a young catcher who seems to have a high upside: Ali Sanchez. Per the Mets' website: "Sanchez made his United States debut in 2015 and performed well, particularly behind the plate. No one runs on him, with a strong arm and a quick release leading to him throwing out 48 percent of would-be basestealers in the Gulf Coast League. Sanchez is athletic and agile behind the plate, with soft hands and good blocking skills, showing an ability to work with pitchers that often doesn't come until later in development. He has tools to hit, with a solid approach and an understanding of what he still needs to work on. Sanchez's swing is contact-oriented now, but there should be power to come as he adds strength. Just 19 for all of the 2016 season, Sanchez still has a ways to go, particularly offensively. But with a floor of a very good backup and a ceiling of an everyday big league backstop, the Mets are eager to help him get there." Here is the link: http://m.mlb.com/prospects/2016?list=nym He is listed as the Mets' #15 prospect.

    It is difficult to imagine anything more putrid than last night's game. The Angels are a terrible team and they slaughtered the twins.

    DONE! Buxton's first homer.

    I will be at the game tonight. My flip phone is not capable of accessing TD but I will wave to all of you.

    Nice win for the Twins.

    8-154?

    For more than 30 years I have aspired to stand in front of Agnetha's house in rain, sleet and snow until she marries me.

    I would also like to hear more explanation of why the focus should not be on getting the best catcher available. We don't seem to be able to get outstanding catchers any other way.

    I don't see much downside to letting him play more, and I am worried that Zuke's option will vest if Murphy sits too much.

    I would like to see Sano pitch and strike out the side.
  14. glunn
    At least we are still in this.

    I think that Gibson may need some time on the DL.

    She would be valuable on a deserted tropical island.

    I am a vodka man, but tonight I feel like whatever Michael Jackson was using to sleep.

    I disagree about the AT&T spokeswoman. She has charisma.

    At least the first 9 games of the season were relatively close.
  20. glunn
    Game called! We win.
  21. glunn
    Great report Steve.
  22. glunn
    Amen.
  23. glunn
    Pinch hitting is allowed in this game?
  24. glunn
    uh oh
  25. glunn
    That was beautiful.
