August 18, 201511 yr Gibson and how many other guys? or was someone just smoking bud, bud?We also know how much Toronto ended up spending to get Tulowitski. And we know Colorado ended up taking back Reyes, who they didn't want, and who has, according to MLBTraderumors, sailed through waivers without a single team willing to risk getting stuck with him. So yeah...Gibson plus a couple minor leaguers, not including Sano, and not having to take back salary, seems like it would've been in Colorado's zone of expected return.
August 18, 201511 yr Rosie can hit this guy...I bet. Whoops, lost that bet. Edited August 18, 201511 yr by jimbo92107
August 18, 201511 yr Can you imagine the drama if this were a playoff game? This is the playoffs for the Twins
August 18, 201511 yr We also know how much Toronto ended up spending to get Tulowitski.

So yeah...Gibson plus a couple minor leaguers, not including Sano, and not having to take back salary, seems like it would've been in Colorado's zone of expected return.Are we sure Colorado didn't want Reyes? They talked to Toronto about him multiple times. Given the way that franchise is run, I wouldn't take anything for granted.
August 18, 201511 yr Maybe the Twins would have a better chance of winning if they didn't get 37 base runners thrown out stealing every inning.
August 18, 201511 yr Well, Poof made me eat my words a bit- (tasty!). But, guys, we're rocking the ball around the park tonight, and already gotten deep into their BP, why keep running ourselves out of innings? I didn't see Dozie, but come on, Torii- that was brutal. Be thinking out there, fer cryin' out loud.
August 18, 201511 yr Chief … talk to SwainZag … he wants to do a game thread … there … it's public … no backing out now!
August 18, 201511 yr is this an actual game thread happening? No. I believe you got turned around somewhere. http://gif.mocksession.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/DELMON-YOUNG.gif
August 18, 201511 yr what's going on here? is this an actual game thread happening? I think so. Maybe even an actual happening game thread. One can hope. And the game itself ain't bad neither... (Didn't like seein' Mitchell go...)
August 18, 201511 yr If the Twins played in Yankee stadium, I think Sano would hit 50 Hr a year easy. Plouffe and Dozier: over 30
August 18, 201511 yr Chief … talk to SwainZag … he wants to do a game thread … there … it's public … no backing out now! I already messaged him
August 18, 201511 yr Author Chief … talk to SwainZag … he wants to do a game thread … there … it's public … no backing out now! SwainZag would do an excellent job.
August 18, 201511 yr what's going on here? is this an actual game thread happening?Only if, you have something about hummingbirds to share.
August 18, 201511 yr Only if, you have something about hummingbirds to share.It's cool to watch them … hover. And they are usually pretty-colored. And their wings go really really fast … which is probably why they hover so well.
August 18, 201511 yr Well, Poof made me eat my words a bit- (tasty!). But, guys, we're rocking the ball around the park tonight, and already gotten deep into their BP, why keep running ourselves out of innings? I didn't see Dozie, but come on, Torii- that was brutal. so yeah, the Dozier caught stealing was absolutely brutal. Bad jump, it was a pitchout, and the shortstop was putting out his cigarette as he bent down to tag Dozier out. Dozier was yelling into the dugout as he jogged back. Teams have a "do not steal on this pitch!" sign, and Twins coaches need to learn when to use it!

August 18, 201511 yr what's going on here? is this an actual game thread happening? I don't think so -- there seems to be too much discussion about baseball and the actual game for this to be a game thread.
August 18, 201511 yr Just bought a shopping bag made of rip-stop nylon. Problem solved! http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GGXZVOU?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00 Baggin' it now, baby! Edited August 18, 201511 yr by jimbo92107
