This would be a good time for Buxton to remember how to hit.

Jeebus how can the Twins justify using Hunter when Hicks comes back? 

Buxton is in way over his head. He can't seem to recognize pitches at all. 

 

Dear whine line, first time caller first time listener, first time I didn't know the answer to a question, do you think Plouffes DP problems are related to hitting too many ground balls? Having runners on base in front of him? Or lack of foot speed?

Yes.

What's with everyone tonight? It should not take 21 minutes for someone to post that.

Remember the TV Brick? Sponge brick you could throw at the TV when pissed. I'd like one about now.

Was buxton supposed to be a good hitter or is looking completely overmatched on 70% of your ABs normal?

 

Pathetic inning after Houston gifted us a rally. How much longer will hunter be trotted out there to be an auto out?

I can't think of a reason. And there had better not be a contract offer for next year.

I also want a button on my clicker that makes people's heads explode on TV. That would be so cool...

Can someone for the love of GOD go hijack the sound board and BLAST "Careless Whisper" the next time he's at the plate??

Mentorin'...

 

It has it's drawbacks, i guess.

Vanimal.....how's the game¿ Sorry, I was golfing, then went to a couple breweries, then my neighbors threw a house warming, then I had to do laundry, since there is an open house here tomorrow.....so, how is the game? From the other comments, it seems boring.....

 

Yes.

When Chief's not here, we all get lazy.

It would appear he's been mentoring Buxton on the fine art of striking out.

For what he's been bringing offensively, he might as well be a coach.

I bought one of those... They sent me a real brick by mistake. But I got to upgrade to a 52 incher. So it all worked out.

ugh. too tired for this.

 

whine line? is it okay to whine and just turn off the game before the end?

If Bark was here... He could do that for us. 

Like carpentry?I think people get nonplussed if other animals start using tools.Alas, i don't have the right sized bit... I got 3/8th bolts, and the set of bits i have handy doesn't go up to that, and the random 1/2 bit i got a while ago is probably too big. (Sure it might work, but i don't want my work to rattle if i shake it)So i put it off until tomorrow...

If you don't have a 3/8" try a 9.5mm. If you don't have one, use a 9mm and shake the bit, or a 10mm, and don't shake the work!

 

Yes.

Too obvious.

But when you put it that way, yes.

Pelfrey or Berrios?

Yes, he was supposed to be, and it's far from decided yet that he won't be. That said, he needs to do something in his at bats soon if he wants to stay up for much longer. Keep in mind he's 21 years old and missed most of last year in the minors due to injuries. He hit very well in 2013 and hit well in AA and AAA this year. I don't really get what's happening to him now it seems like he has no clue what is being thrown.

We nominate you.    It's a good idea and we want to be there when you do it, so wake us up before you Go Go.

Go low tech, like that ol' Kids in the Hall bit. That is actually surprisingly satisfying.

Sooner or later you gonna meet them comin’ down"

Yes.

It takes that long for my brain to formulate rationale thoughts!

Well mike, the only thing to say is not good my friend, not good. The intern is more intent on watching the game than I am. The mimosa turned into a vodka later on in the day, and, well it's the weekend. Quite frankly I don't know if we're watching the game, or if he's playing MLB The Show to find more show material. The graphics are so realistic! Either way, you made the better choice of going to the breweries and house warming party.

The answer to all these posts ... YES?

If I ever go up... I'm heeding these words

I could get two of those Hulk Smash fists, hold them at arm's length...

... but watch out for the face pinch counterattack.
