Oh my. Sano's attempt to field that play was unbelievably bad.

 

I still don't get why they moved Sano to RF and had him start practicing for the first time in Spring Training. The outrage on Twins Daily about this move has been justified, at least in my eyes.

I loved the job, but if you're not hooked into the voice over/commercial group, the pay is pretty poor.  Pretty much everything is automation now.  I miss John "Records" Landecker, Dr. Demento and The True Don Blue....

My daughter found that out. She was at several stations from MN to Oregon, and just could not make a living at it. I was amazed at the automation

 

If that's what I have to look forward to, I'm not ready to be a dad.

No one is ever ready to be a dad. You'll die of old age if you wait until you're ready to be a parent.

 

Fun fact of the day: Former Twins 3rd baseman Danny Valencia has the highest batting average on today's Oakland A's line-up (.328) and is batting clean up.

I'm over it

Can we please be done with Sano playing right field!

 

How many more runs are the twins going to allow sano to cost them before they end their experiment?

The Twins decision is costing us.  Sano is trying, he's just clearly not an OF, which was obvious before he ever got moved out there.

You'll die of middle age if you don't wait ...

 

I remember doing a fly in fishing trip as a kid into northern Ontario.  My dad brought a radio up with us just for fun to see if we could pick up something.  During the day we didn't but at night we listened to the Cardinals game.  Picked up a St. Louis station all the way in Ontario.  Can't remember if it was AM or FM.

 

Thought it was very cool.  No internet back then... 

 

Probably KMOX

It will stay that way until Molly is out of the dugout, and back as roving instructor.

and the scorekeeper called that a triple, right? How is that not a two base error?

On the radio in the south, there's not 1, not 2, not 3.... not 57, not 58.... not 182...

 

...religious firebrand stations

 

Except for the occasional country station, that's like all there is

You don't have to get too far either. It's awful hard to avoid in even SW Iowa already. They think NPR is Radio Pravda.

Trade Plouffe to the Mets and move the very athletic Sano to 3b.

 

not sure what THAT was, except an out for any somewhat decent outfielder.  Athletic play though. Corner OF defense hasn't cost us anything this year.

 

I remain OK with Sano in RF but even as I say that. 

 

Good God was that awful. 

A vintage Buxton AB.

I don't know how that is possible, but more power to you.

47

 

Or was that Rhetorical? 

Well, Men-Dozier's OBP went up a tick.  At least there's that outta the 2-hole.

 

47

IDK.  I'm pretty ambivalent to rhetorical's. 

Heh--  had an "oh sh..oot" moment there, but then realized it was Gene Glynn, and not Nunez that far off 3rd base... 

Kind of lost him among the seagulls there.

Dozier's best ABs these days are like Rudi from the Bad News Bears.

 

I wonder if this Twins team could be compared to the BNBs? . . .

 

I don't know how that is possible, but more power to you.

It is almost as if he has never played there before, and is not athletic enough to be there in the first place.

Those birds are about the size of our mosquitos.

Sano is hurt.

awesome play by Danny!

Ut oh

Well that's not good. 

 

On the bright side, Kepler might get another shot. 

This is not good.

Sweet. A Pulled hammy for Sano

Hammy.    That'll take a while to heal.   Them's are big hammy's   on Sano
