  1. Yep. Stop getting down 0-2 in the count in your first 60 seconds at bat. Stop striking out and flying out and start hitting ground balls and learn how to bunt. If I remember correctly, Carlos Gomez set a team record for bunt singles in a season. At least he figured out how to use his speed to get on base by hitting the ball on the ground. Can't the coaches figure out how to help Byron accomplish this? (or is he just stubborn or sadly, just that bad of a hitter?)
  2. Speaking of the post-game interview with Sano, is the interpreter this year the same guy as last year?
  3. What's the point of switching pitchers for one out?
  4. I was fortunate enough to have friends that got on the phone and dialed and dialed and dialed and waited to get in, to buy tickets (no internet sales back then). I was at game 1 of the 87 ALCS and also game 7 of the World Series. After we won the World Series, I remember running around downtown Mpls high-fiving strangers and people hanging out of cars. My buddy and I had to drive back to Rochester and work the next day too! I also was lucky enough to have a friend take me to game 7 of the '91 World Series. I always remind my two boys that their "old man" was at both World Series game 7s. It's also easy for me to remember the years they were born (87 & 91)! So many memories!
  5. Provided we keep Dozier, will he be (or does he have the ability to be) our team leader in 2017? We need a Tori Hunter, Kirby Puckett, Kent Hrbek type in the club house. Is Dozier a leader, does he want to be a leader? Lord knows it ain't Mauer. Thoughts on this anyone?
  6. Saw on the post-game show that with Vargas' 10th homer last night, the Twins set a team record. 10 players with at least 10 or more homers. (a silver lining on this gloomy season)
  7. Wow--nice play Escobar for the DP.
  8. Hopefully Dick didn't just curse them by mentioning 3 shut out innings by the bullpen to close out the game.
  9. What did they do to Buxton's swing in the minors to produce all this power in the past couple of weeks?
  10. Yup, makes sense to me. Tough love.
  11. Fingernails down the chalk board (watching Gibby)
  12. This is typically the time in the Twin's game when my NetFlix trigger finger gets itchy. Narcos season 2 is out.........
  13. Why does he have an oven mitt on his left hand and is wearing slippers?!
  14. Haven't you noticed, there's an egg war going on out there?! Eating lots of eggs these days.
  15. Winner, winner, egg salad sandwich! On toast with a leaf of lettuce. (might as well live large)
  16. This may have been asked in another thread, but why don't you see players wearing those "Power Necklaces" any more? Were they just a fad, or did they not "work"?
  17. Tidy is as tidy does-----McHugh with a nice inning of his own.
  18. This is about the time Buxton would come to bat, and I'd go to grab a beer, come back and he would have already struck out.
  19. Nice tidy inning there for Duffy. Polanco looking sharp.
  20. Hitting the ball hard this inning!
