    How many Scotches are you in?

    Team is saying Buxton has "right knee soreness" but is still being evaluated.
  3. wsnydes
    I'll repeat this, I never said that it couldn't be done. Only that it was more difficult than people around here make it. That's it.
  4. wsnydes
    And mess up the space/time continuum? ARE YOU NUTS?!
  5. wsnydes
    Yeth.

    This aged well.

    And I'm bringing @stringer bell with me!

    A cab on his way from St. Paul to Mpls?

    You...you get divots! Deep divots. Deep and plentiful divots!

    Hell of an inning for Ryan!
  11. wsnydes
    So now is the wrong time to ask for a raise?
  12. wsnydes
    I have some, but they're unrelated.

    All depends on whose ox is being gored.

    Awkward Buxton slide. He's out of the game.
  15. wsnydes
    6 games and 8 pitches.
  16. wsnydes
    So, it's your fault!

    All I'm saying is that it's a different skillset. Just like with anything, some won't have any issues with it, some will. I wish Buxton would employ the bunt for hit now and then. I think that'd be a pretty good weapon for him. I'll add that I hate the fact that more players don't bunt against the shift more. It drives me nuts. I just don't think it's as easy as many here make it out to be. And to me, it doesn't even matter whether it's harder than a full swing or not.

    Good day to mute the TV and put on some music! Welcome back to MN, by the way.

    I hope that your positivity is contagious!

    This team was outscored 14-2 in the two games against the Dodgers. I'm optimistic that they can improve upon that!

    They are two different skillsets, in my view. There's a reason that K rates are climbing, so clearly swinging and hitting a ball is becoming more difficult. That's partly approach, but also largely on the velocity and movement that pitchers possess. I'm not sure that gets any easier while bunting. It's a completely different motion and setup. I'm with you that there are probably many that would be able to do it with some practice, but I don't think all of them could. And regardless, I do wish that they would at least try. I'm onboard with that 100%. I just don't think it's as easy as it's made out to be in today's game.

    I understand completely. I got fit for clubs a month ago and not only do I not have them yet (thanks supply chain!), but I haven't touched my old clubs since.
  24. wsnydes
    Just for that, I rescind my invitation I extended a month or so ago to join me on your lawn. Just be thankful that I'll try not to take too deep a divot while practicing my pitch shots while I'm there! I can't make any promises though. ?
  25. wsnydes
    Definitely sunny here in the south suburbs. I haven't put my clubs in the car yet. Hasn't been nice enough to think about it. And I don't mind playing in the cold. It's the cold and WIND that gives me pause.
