Yeah he probably looked around and said Tampa you play good baseball, WHY NO FANS?

If ever a franchise deserved to relocate it is the Tampa bay Rays. They move to Nashville even playing in a football stadium temporarily they would draw a ton more fans there. Nashville would probably build them a baseball only stadium, if baseball would approve them to move. 

Or Portland.

One BILLION dollars.

Would we get a mini Sano too?

Except Nashville just opened a brand-new park for their AAA team this season.  Soooo, just expand it!!

How about getting caught in the rain?

I'm ok with it, but I'm not into yoga.

But do you have half a brain?.....................

[Cap'n Piranha]

Dan Gladden goes out on a limb, and postulates that Buxton would be a hard guy to get at first to complete a double play.  Bold, Danny.

Oh my gosh, so many questions!!!  What's an Escobear?  Do they come in lots of colors?  What's their main habitat?  And most importantly, do they like beets or Battlestar Galactica?

I do, but what I do at midnight at the dunes by the cape is my business, and not yours, thank you very much.

One colour, nomadic, typically inhabiting LF, SS OR 3B, mostly like plantains.

Whew, was worried it was going there.

Until the other day when we got 5", we'd been really low on rain this summer.

 

I'd have not only liked getting caught in it but Dancing in it!!

Sano fans in the stands? Lots of cheers for the HR.

 

There's no way their play by play guy isn't at least considering doing the fake crowd noise thing like Ueck in Major League.

Keeeee-rap

http://content.internetvideoarchive.com/content/photos/062/002625_22.jpgI have such a bad feeling.

[Squirrel]

Keeeee-rap

This.

[USAFChief]

Not to worry.  As long as Sano hits a 3 run HR every PA we'll be fine.

[LaBombo]

 

That Sano kid might be a keeper. Time will tell.

No way to know, but I can't help but think that if Gardenhire were still here there would've been a lengthy debate about whether Sano's defense should keep him in the minors.

[NorthwestTwinsFan]

Man, I'm glad Santana is only signed for 4 years instead of 5. Because that could've been bad.

[twinsnorth49]

Not fooling anyone, good grief.

[ScrapTheNickname]

Does anyone else think Mauer didn't t stretch and extend his glove toward the ball there? I've noticed it before.

This was well-spent money.  I wonder what we can get for Santana in the offseason.  Gonna need a lot of offense tonight as long as he stays in this game.

[twinsnorth49]

Buck just about ran right past the damn thing.

That, and three-run dingers aren't the Twins Way.

[twinsnorth49]

Still the best Grady.

Is that Grady Sizemore? I thought for sure he was forced to retire after bilateral leg amputation.

[ScrapTheNickname]

The Twins lead!
