Sam Mele is a few months older than my father. Sam sounded good in his lengthy video tribute. But my dad does look better. :)

 

Hopefully your dad reads the gamethreads

    I'm not saying I hate Terry Ryan, but is it pure coincidence that every team in baseball except the Twins has a competent ball boy?  The Royals annually have ball *girls* of sparkling ability.  How ha

    Sorry about the delay. I am a fan of Kaat and I wanted to hear what he had to say.  

 

He may have dawdled. I'm not quite sure.

 

I wish I would they would have played a Camera angle of him out of the box.

  Yeah, he's been doing that since he was 2.

Welll... What do we do different?

 

Send Suzuki?

 

Bunt Escobar?

 

Hit and run Mauer?

  Yeah, he's been doing that since he was 2.

So, Gibby, how many drinks into your evening's quota are you, at this point? :)

 

C'mon Mauer. Start earning your job.

I think Joe earned his job, he really needs to earn his salary though

Not with X-rated comments about ball boys, he won't.

  Yeah, I've been at it since 10. One of those days. I reckon I'll bow out... before you bow me out. :)

 

Could somebody explain why Joe is still hitting in the 3 spot?

 

Cuz Dozier is in the 1 Spot

 

Could somebody explain why Joe is still hitting in the 3 spot?

Cuz he's Joe and Joe's making 23 million dollars a year.

Not at all. You are at your best when you are at your worst.

Sano grounds to 2nd as well, so not too much improvement over Mauer...

 

Plouffe does something with that ball though!

Come on Trev. You couldn't honor your new born with a HR. I am insulted by your triple. You are a bad dad.

Is it too much to ask that someone gets the ball to the outfield?

  That's what she said.

OK... No Boat... That's Cool... Yours is better. With him looking to the left like that... Have a bunch of fish jumping behind him... Dolphins... Tuna... Walleye... 

What's this? Plouffe said what? Background please.

During Plouffe's first AB, Morris said he talked to Ploufe today and implied that Plouffe didn't agree with some of his comments during last night's broadcast. I'm pretty sure Morris was talking about how not making trades was the right move last night.

 

Morris didn't say what the discussion was about, but I'd guess if Ploufee didn't agree about a critique of a teammates defense or something else trivial, he would have been more open about the contents of the discussion.

Twin's baseball!

Way to bring him in, Rosario!

 

Way to take the wild pitch!

So the Mariners do what the Twins can't do for themselves.

 

Whatever works, I guess.

Major League Players are probably OK with trading prospects who can take their job eventually for Major League Players who can help now... Unless they trade the prospects for someone who can play your position right now. Then they would rather keep the prospects.

Just no jumping sharks. We covered that already in the Simpsons thread.

That's playin' hard.

 

I'll respect Rosario bein' retired on a play like that.

And no one here better suggest he was lolligagin'...

Isn't that a classic strategy? Use the enemies' strength agin 'em?

Unless both the MLB player and the prospect play your position, in which case you complain that you've never seen umpiring worse than it is right now.
