Oh man! The Mods deleted the comment that this was replying to. Should have let it live throughout history!

Strangest fan meltdown I've witnessed on TD... About something so meaningless too. To steal the popular phrase from Mike Sixel, Mind.Boggling. 

Reminds me of a certain meltdown over at BYTO, over someone talking about a Beatles cover band in a thread talking about a Beatles inspired play. That was truly the best thing ever.

I generally don't like how the strikeout is being dismissed for batters but rightfully so what most teams want from their pitching staffs.

At times it's almost seemed as if Twins have treated batter walks like little league walks, a sort of inadvertent, unavoidable delay in the contest that you simply have to put up with when a pitcher can't find the plate.  Hands were wrung off at the wrists over Aaron Hicks' excessive passivity at the plate, while Twins staff and media still celebrate Dan Gladden's storied career as a Twins leadoff man who would run into the stands to swing at an outside pitch.

 

Meanwhile, pitcher walks are still regarded as a kind of inappropriate baseball conduct that ought to require the offending pitcher to register with the league as a criminal strike zone offender.

I think I missed the real entertainment.

Thanks for pausing the game for me.

We're just getting started.  If FSN burns through its rain delay library, Dick's taking on Bert in what's sure to be a rousing game of PS4 MLB The Show.

Approx. restart time is 5:30 CT per Mike Berardino's Twitter account. Thinks both Santana and Tillman will be done for the day.

Nice, this is all playing right into our strength: Elite Bullpen depth.

Man waiting on rain delays sucks.......

 

 

I think it was Jean-Paul Sartre who said that.

 

Sort of lost interest in him after he left The Carpenters.

 

Hangin' around hanging around

 

Nothin' to do but frown.

 

Rain delays and Mondays always get me down.
