August 18, 201511 yr Kyle the nibbler is out tonight I see. Oh Geeze, a set-up like that could easily garner me a warning point.
August 18, 201511 yr I should have been clearer...My bad.More generally, has anyone used a mop for curling?Or is it against the rules or something. Or would dragging a bucket and a squeezer on the ice be disadvantageous?(i can see i haven't thought out the implications of such a strategy at all, and perhaps i should do so before i post it... nah, this way's more fun.)Well, I tried the sites re: curling and all I got was beer sites
August 18, 201511 yr Author Oh Geeze, a set-up like that could easily garner me a warning point. We had determined earlier that the Dahli Lama was the nibbler.
August 18, 201511 yr Our golf sup up here curls and has gone to Worlds the last couple years. Scotland last year and she got to play St Andrews. Russia this year, and came in 3rd. It's a shame we can score all these runs to have Gibson give them back. Sit him down now and we win the bullpen battle.
August 18, 201511 yr Oh Geeze, a set-up like that could easily garner me a warning point.The Nibbler... a super villain that didn't quite make it on Batman.

August 18, 201511 yr or that report by Jeremy which said the Rockies asked for Gibson... So yeah, there was definitely smoke on this theory bud. His piece said their top target was Gibson and they also were interested in Sano. For all we know it could have been Gibson+Sano. They could have been willing to give up Gibson, but Sano was the deal breaker. Who knows. I just think saying the Twins wouldn't give up Gibson for Tulo is mis-informed and using a small piece of information to make assumption you couldn't possibly know the answer to.
August 18, 201511 yr The Nibbler... a super villain that didn't quite make it on Batman. We had a butt slasher when I lived in Chicago in the 70s.
August 18, 201511 yr or that report by Jeremy which said the Rockies asked for Gibson... So yeah, there was definitely smoke on this theory bud.Gibson and how many other guys? or was someone just smoking bud, bud?
August 18, 201511 yr Does anyone still want to see Arcia in the field?In right field about 50% of time? Yes
August 18, 201511 yr To be fair, your stats are assuming all teams have the same amount of 0-2 counts for and against. I wouldn't doubt if the Twins were also first (or last or whatever) in getting down 0-2. Also, I'm not confident our pitchers are frequently up 0-2. Perhaps 0-2 RBI percentage would be a better measure? Or are you saying that statisticians just see what they want to see? Also HICKS!!! Left handed! That's why the team hates platoons. You gotta learn sometime! The Twins are third in the league having 442 PA with 0-2 count this season. Leading this category Milwaukee with 454. Meanwhile on the other hand, Twins pitchers are right in the middle, getting to an 0-2 count 392 times, ranking them 16th in the league
August 18, 201511 yr Gibson and how many other guys? or was someone just smoking bud, bud? I'm not sure what that has to do with anything
August 18, 201511 yr First team to 10 wins?No. Play for 4 hours, whoever is leading at end of 4 hours, wins game
August 18, 201511 yr We had determined earlier that the Dahli Lama was the nibbler. Did he get the warning point, then?
August 18, 201511 yr I just think saying the Twins wouldn't give up Gibson for Tulo is mis-informed and using a small piece of information to make assumption you couldn't possibly know the answer to. Being misinformed and not knowing what we're talking about has never stopped any of us before.
August 18, 201511 yr Feels like there were more.....maybe its all the hits on a 0-2 count.There have been 15 HR allowed on 1-2 counts, might be why it feels like they've allowed more on 0-2
August 18, 201511 yr No. Play for 4 hours, whoever is leading at end of 4 hours, wins game Which is probably going to happen...and in spectacular fashion.
August 18, 201511 yr Twins Daily: Who needs facts when you can just get angry? http://stream1.gifsoup.com/view2/1873640/seinfeld-the-wrath-of-khan-o.gif
August 18, 201511 yr Author There have been 15 HR allowed on 1-2 counts, might be why it feels like they've allowed more on 0-2 All of them hit by Bautista
August 18, 201511 yr The Twins are third in the league having 442 PA with 0-2 count this season. Leading this category Milwaukee with 454. Meanwhile on the other hand, Twins pitchers are right in the middle, getting to an 0-2 count 392 times, ranking them 16th in the league So we're withing 3 of where you'd expect on each. I'd say we could improve on each!
