"Khannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn!"

This little opposite field loop to right field that he has found has completely changed his value, IMHO. He could suddenly be a .270 hitter instead of a .230 hitter and not completely worthless against right-handers. A guy with his profile who hits .270 is Michael Cuddyer at third base.

 

He's also hit 3 to the RF wall and Trevor is Brooks Robinson at 3rd compared to Cuddy.

Their shortstop sucks.

I never thought I'd detest a Twins middle infielder more than Punto, but Florimon now takes it. Punto's 'heart' and defense were also over-rated, but at least he could make the all the routine plays.

 

At this point, Petey is little more than "Dead Man Walking"....

Escobar is making progress...

 

He struggled with dive

Solved that and then struggled with the throw.

 

when he gets the throw thing figured out... We are in trouble.

At this point, Petey is little more than "Dead Man Walking"....

 

"You sold Petey to the Blind Kid?"

Their shortstop sucks.

 

He's a top 3 defensive SS in the AL.

"In the service, one must always choose the lesser of two weevils"

I stepped out of the lurking shadows just to point out that Kubel is tied for the league lead in three-baggers. I don't know what to do with this information.

"I especially liked that move in the 7th when you scratched yourself for an hour"

He's a top 3 defensive SS in the AL.

 

Just ahead of Florimon. But it was a joke.

go back in time and get a bet down.

"All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain."

"You mean you're not picking her 'cause she ain't pretty?"

"I"ll have what she's having" ... Best movie line ever?

Yes, yes, yes!

"In the service, one must always choose the lesser of two weevils"

 

"Always with the negative waves Moriarty, ALWAYS with the negative waves!"

"Don't worry... As long as you hit that wire with the connecting hook at precisely 88 miles per hour... the instant the lightning strikes the tower... everything will be fine".

Anyone else having miserable luck with the mlb.com feed?

I'll take "freaking auto correct" for 200, Alex.

A couple of quote candidates: "What we have is a fail-yah to communicate" and "the truth! You can't handle the truth!"

My favorites are all obscure Chevy Chase lines. This is #2:

 

Rusty Griswold: Wow dad, we must have jumped that rail by like 50 yards.

Clark: Nothing to be proud of Russ...

[pauses as Rusty walks away]

Clark: [proudly] ... 50 yards...

 

"Oh, the silent majesty of a winter's morn... the clean, cool chill of the holiday air... an ******* in his bathrobe, emptying a chemical toilet into my sewer..."

Steinie just texted Gardy "Gibby battling tail off"

Fletch: Can't do that, Frank. Fat Sam isn't the story, there's a source behind him.

Frank Walker: Who?

Fletch: Well, there we're in kind of a grey area.

Frank Walker: How grey?

Fletch: Charcoal.

"It must be nice to always believe you know better... to always think you're the smartest person in the room".

 

 

"No. It's awful".

So Hammer on the DL... What's the word with Oswaldo?

 

Are you asking Where's Oswaldo?

If you're going to do quotes, you have to get a bit creative. Quoting quotes from movies everyone has seen and everyone knows isn't original. C'mon man.

 

(I'm a bit of a movie buff and a quote snob)

pinto!!!

What was that about Pinto at DH?

Note to self -- in order to achieve my goal of being an efficient TwinsDaily poster, not only need to brush up on baseball stats, but movie quotes . . .
