  1. It all starts with the beef bone
  2. Pablito gets the 6th pho sho, the question is does he make it out?
  3. Dang big Jim Thome had 10 seasons with 600+ PA and 3 more with 500+.
  4. I see your Malört and raise you
  5. My last memory of Sonny was sitting in the stands in the playoff game against Houston and looking at the scoreboard in the 1st inning; Houston 4, Minnesota 0. Tough way to start. It was memorable how the fans stayed positive to the end.
  6. It was said that plica surgery has very high levels of success and it appears they were right. It took them a while to diagnose the problem, but that is common. Buxton is driven to go right by his contract and he just may do that.
  7. I sure messed up the punchline on this one. In my defense maybe baseball and Greek literature don't make a good comic combo. But as they say, if you have to explain your joke.....
  8. Very well said, there is no guarantee Louie succeeds in the pen. He had his moments in that role, but also have up some hard contact at times, walking a tightrope. On the positive side he does do well his first time facing a batter in either role.
  9. FTFY Leading by example is a better look for you. But if you prefer public chastising, how about spelling Varland's name correctly? Lol
  10. Hope not that's a cheesey way to upset the balance of power. Last year we got lucky that Giolito fell apart. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.
  11. Two games in Ricardo Olivar obviously masters AA. MOVE HIM UP, AAA is calling. FREE RICARDO OLIVAR!! September with the big club! The Twins can't let another MAJOR TALENT rot in the minors!
  12. According to Phil Miller of the Strib, Randy posted that he is back with the big club. No official announcement by the Twins yet. https://www.startribune.com/twins-trade-deadline-randy-dobnak-derek-falvey-mlb/600387585/
  13. I think you're right except on Varland, but now with Stewart not performing as you say, get Louie in the pen.
  14. The last 2 games could be explained just by the way the games went. They were not close enough for high leverage.
  15. That media disruption dispersion money is nowhere to be seen. It may not make it this year or at all. This seriously limits what this team can/will do at the deadline, hence crickets....
  16. When Joe took over they signed Correa to a large contract, had the best pitching staff in memory and looked poised to make a run. The new young man in charge was purportedly a baseball fan and would even have an office at the ballpark and would be there daily, lol. It was a new day in Twindom! Then what the hell happened? Best I can figure, the Twins had a poor first half and excitement was slow to build resulting in worse than expected attendance (possibly also due to long time fan emnity). The poorly run business and marketing wing (DSP) fell down on the marketing end and got caught with their pants down on the TV deal, lol. With payroll obligations rising in the future, the more conservative old guard of the Pohlad empire stepped in to reign in the young whippersnapper. Dave St Peter simply ducked under his desk.
  17. You do appear to have held on to your niceness
