In college, a buddy and I (both math/physics types) considered:

A: the women we liked
B: the women who liked us

We used this as an example of a disjoint set.

I was thinking Venn Diagram.

 

If they arent going to play arcia let him go so he can flourish somewhere else. I still cant figure out why he didnt pinch hit for suzuki last night. I think our mgmt might need to be drug tested

Arcia as a pinch hitter?  This year:  92 AB's  40 K's.  Not much to recommend him as a PH.

Either way, nether one of them is worth spending a lot of time on.

 

I say:  give him a pat on the back and a hearty 'Good Luck with your next job/team'

 

Well this thread is taking an odd turn, even by game thread standards.

It would be odder still if a game thread didn't take an odd turn. 

 

First you have me to deal with.

I believe everyone has a little bit of Rico Suavé in them. A&B are all up for grabs!

Wear a mask or something and fake your way through - it could work. That's all the advice I have.

Dozier and Plouffe batting 3 and 4 makes me shed a tear every single time I see the lineup. And presumably makes opposing pitchers shed tears of joy.

 

And on top of that, the Universe is not behaving as expected.

My favorite question: If the universe is expanding, what is it expanding in to?

Actually, if I want to feel better about my looks, I just stand next to "People of Walmart."

 

I suspect, though I've not proven, that I probably win in the eloquence and charm department also.

Agreed!

 

What are the Zephyrs up to now.  Being from Bear Town, I remember the prettiest girls were always across the lake.

I had a boat.  And a canoe.

The universe is not analogous to a big inflating balloon where the boundary keeps expanding. Rather, each point in the universe is continually getting farther away from every other point in the universe. And it's not because the points are in motion away from each other. Rather, more space keeps forming in between. I'm not an expert physicist or even an amateur one but I that's how I understand it. It sounds totally weird.

The game threads have standards?

Yes, three in fact. Low, lower, and _lowest.

We're complaining about Buxton getting on base the day after he goes 2 for 4 with a triple?

 

Ok.

I took a look and since his call-up he's batting .333, and with the extra base hits his OPS is .846.

 

It's just that when I watch him at bat, I can't help discounting the numbers a little.

 

That, plus his BABIP is merely .455 for this short period.

Growing up, it seemed the prettiest girls were always on the other side of the lake.

 

No matter which side of the lake I was on.

They had binoculars and good taste, both.

I can never remember, can a normal garden variety set, and the empty set, be considered disjoint?

Announcer said Twins have to take advantage of the schedule with so many games being played at TF in the next 3 weeks.  Then he said they've been playing very well at home.

 

I think I'll stop listening to him now.

Was I so tall, could reach the pole,

Or grasp the ocean with a span;

I would be measured by the soul,

The mind's the standard of the man.

I had a boat.  And a canoe.

Okay ... so ... did you actually have two boats then? Or just one, the boat and the canoe being one and the same?

This is what my oldest nephew's senior project was about! And that's about as much as I understood about it.

Twins last in team ERA in the AL.

Twins last in runs scored in the AL.

Twins 14th out of 15 in defensive runs saved in the AL.

My oldest nephew too! It's a small world. (But expanding.)

Yay! A run! I hope it's enough!

Hey, a 20-foot RBI!
