Just tuned in and see that our friend Kyle has dug us a hole. He is quickly becoming one of the starters to be worried about.

Buxton could have used that dinger. 

 

Welcome to the Major Leagues Kid

 

Sano used his left hand which was in a glove to make that catch!

 

That Sano is so athletic.

what's buxton have to do to get a homer. jeeze.

 

And the Younger Older Fans hate the Rangers the same way. 

There's a whole lotta hatin goin on.

I also just tuned in. It's a beautiful spring evening. The lawn looks good. In April! Which means it needed to be mowed. In April!

I did meet a guy (in his mid-sixties maybe) last fall who grew up in DC and it was fun that he grew up rooting for Killebrew and Allison etc. as Senators. Back when that wasn't a swear word, naturally. NATIONALS: Is that any for a team?

Someone Cue the Bobby McFerrin

 

Anyone got one of those singing fish. 

Every time I hear of Gio Gonzalez, I can't help but remember this horrendous game in twins infamy:

Get. the. ball. down. Gibson.

Wow, it seems like if often happens that a guy makes a great defensive play and then comes up second to bat in the next inning!

The over/under for runs in this game was 7.5.  Given that Gibson is still pitching, I'm assuming Molitor must have bet heavily on the over.

He got better while Blackburn did not

I'm checking in late today, but Riv, that has to be one of my fave opening salvos ever.

another 0-2 pitch RBI. Jose...jose jose jose!

You can see the challenge for Miguel Sano in right field. Every batter that hits the ball down the line will be looking to take second base on Sano. Every base runnier will be looking to advance on him. Sano has got to gun a few guys down before they stop taking liberties.

 

what's buxton have to do to get a homer. jeeze.

 

Either hit the ball over the fence and beyond the reach of any leaping outfielders, or complete a circuit of the bases before being tagged out on his batted ball.

 

Duh.

bobby Keppel, anyone?

Gibby's playing this game for free with all the 0-2 fines from Chief.

First post on here, got tired of the board i always frequented for the past decade. I'm sure if there's some from on there that are here, they know me. 

Anyway, 35 years old, been a twins fan my whole life, and big into fantasy baseball. I'm not an over the top homer, nor do i rip for the sake of ripping. 

 

Now get some f'n runs guys.

Welcome, this definitely isn't fantasy baseball. If it is, someone needs a new fantasy.

Put in Milone

We got a long reliever... Right?

Welcome MindFreak

 

Right now my sentiment is stop some f'n runs Gibson. 

Not looking to start something here, but if I'm understanding your first 4 points correctly, you have no problem with cheating so long as it's done in the pursuit of a dream with sizable financial upside.  So for example, you are all good with someone who's dream is to be President stuffing the ballot box in order to ensure election.

I thought he was saying he understood why a young, dumb person would fall for that temptation. I didn't notice so much as a hint that it was okay.
