It is ridiculous that they put a Royal as one of the final 5 vote candidates.

 

I don't give a d*mn if it is Moustakas.

 

  I'm going to go out on a limb and infer that it's a Greek moustache.

Back in grade school, I was almost suicidal, if not homicidal, every time they played Summer Breeze on the radio. The first tune that air-time made me hate.

Wow, them's strong feelings...

 

I'm tryin' to think if i got songs i like that i don't appreciate...

 

I think the only thing comparable for me is when i had friends who played the dynasty warriors series of games for long periods of time and that sound track got on my nerves a bit.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Wait... Someone besides Dozier can hit a lead off homerun?

 

I thought he had that copyrighted or something.

[Jerr]

Not the start I was hoping for!

[jimmer]

No all star game for Dozier.

 

And Kershaw, who is 2nd in the NL in WAR for SP, did not make it either.

Seriously? Lead off home run? 

 

Come on, Hughes.

[Cap'n Piranha]

Dear Phil Hughes,

 

Please stop giving up home runs.  That is all.

 

Thank you,

 

A frustrated fan

[jimmer]

reminds me of Santana not winning the CY in 2005 because he wasn't quite as good as he was in 2004.

[drock2190]

I'm not sure Chris Davis could get a bigger dip in...

  It was a tad strong. The radio really messed up the Beatles, Zep, and God forbid Fleetwood Mac.

 

[Craig Arko]

Two Doors songs that remind me of this board and our bullpen.....go.

For the board, gotta be "People are Strange."

[Craig Arko]

Torii-Oreo!

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Torii-Oreo!

Concur.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

For the board, gotta be "People are Strange."

The song is inaccurate though.

 

If you are strange enough, people do tend to remember your name...

 

(have gotten by being remembered more often than remembering other folk)

[NoCryingInBaseball]

Did I hear Johnny Cash (I walk the Line)for Sano's walk up?

[SwainZag]

Sano wanted to place that one deep in the upper deck

[Craig Arko]

Captain Parmelee. (Props for whoever remembers where that came from).

[JB_Iowa]

Ye-Haw, Aaron!!

[SwainZag]

Hicksieeeeeeeeeeee!

[Cap'n Piranha]

I believe that had more to do with Trevor Plouffe's base on balls (he was literally walking the line).

[Cap'n Piranha]

Aaron Hicks playing well bodes ill for Oswaldo's chance to wear a Twins uniform next year.

[Monkeypaws]

Liking these signs of life from Hicks. He's been pretty good all around this latest call up.

[big dog]

I'm starting to get kind of excited about the Rosario-Buxton-Hicks outfield of 2016.

[Monkeypaws]

It will be a test of Oswaldo's work ethic. I'm rooting for him.

[drock2190]

This team hits lefties so much better then righties.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

CBU say

 

2 home runs are more than 1 home run.

 

2-1 heading into the 3rd.

[Craig Arko]

This team hits lefties so much better then righties.

Which is why I wouldn't count Arcia out yet.

[ashbury]

Oops, was looking for the Game Thread, wrong door.

We told you once already, this is the Argument Thread.

[Blake]

I see Hicks is going the opposite way this game. Rather than a spectacular play in the outfield and then a home run, Hicks decided to get take care of the home run first. 

 

I can hardly wait to see the catch.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

We are enjoyin' all the ex-twins on the Orioles, how many ex-Orioles do we got?
