  1. I suppose Polanco scoring on the ground out = a manufactured run. This game is weird.
  2. I dig the radio commercials where Gladden sounds like he's voicing it in from radio-free Kerplunkistan or somewhere.
  3. An Astudillo walk. A non-Gordon stolen base. What-the-heck!
  4. Wonder what the Ober/Unber is for this game.
  5. We have a 2 run lead . . . we're speechless.
  6. Wait a minute, 2 guys up, 2 hits, and we score a run without a homerun. Nah.
  7. Lead off double by Polanco, we win! Oh, wait . . .
  8. It would be interesting to know what Tampa would trade Buxton for if they had him. Those guys really know how to assess player value both in terms of production and cost and build a competitive team. It's really impressive and I don't think you can really copy it effectively. Some of their trades seem misguided at first but then you see the results in the W/L column and you realize they've done it again. I hate em.
  9. The guy I wanted the Twins to sign was 28 year old former 1st round pick Taijuan Walker who signed a 2 year + option contract for $20 mil with the Mets. At 6-4, 235 lbs and fully recovered fro TJ surgery, could have been a solid rotation addition. He's pitched better than expectations so the Mets are happy.
  10. Mudcat fan here . . . '65 of course. After he lost his starter's mojo and bounced around a few teams he re-found his groove as a reliever and his last 2 seasons (1970-71) he was 14-6 with 34 saves and a 2.42 era then retired at age 35. RIP Mr. Grant.
  11. I'm not sure "Game Recap" is really appropriate for nights like this. "Massacre Recap" might better fit the occasion with maybe an FCC type rating to protect the more innocent of fans. ?
  12. Any self-respecting team does NOT trade Byron Buxton. He is worth more as a part time player than most full time players, and all players on this year's Twins. I'm sorry if you don't see it, but he is the straw that stirs the drink. When he is in the lineup he impacts a team more than any player in baseball outside of the juniors (Guerrero and Tatis), Trout, Acuna and Soto. Sign him to a contract and have a plan for when he is unable to play. I should add Betts in there.
  13. I would think if Jermaine Palacios continues his solid play at AA it should put him back on the Twins prospect list.
  14. Tigers beat the Royals, we're alone in last place.
  15. At least we got a Shaggy sighting.
