You heard it here first.

 

"SPOILER ALERT"

 

I feel like Karma is kicking my ass right now. Ouch.

why is that?

 

Market Pantry Raspberry Blackberry Sparkling Water for me.

 

It doesn't taste bad but it also tastes like neither. 

I was having the same thing.  Mixed mine with vodka though.  Tasted better so I had some more.

Had free refills of mountain dew at a restaurant, with attention of wait staff as a limiting factor.

 

But drinking has never been a vital element to my capacity for strange and irrelevent comments.

Nettles had two errors in like 20 games at 3B for the Twins.  And this was back when scorers were much tougher than today.

 

Sano makes two errors in pre-game warm-ups :-)

If you quit eating that stuff you are likely to have fewer nightmares.

 

Sounds like the basis for another 3 way debate.

Another failed bunt.  :banghead:

Crasnick reported that the eight teams to which Lucroy could block a trade are the Indians, Tigers, Angels, Twins, A's, Padres, Mariners and Nationals.

now name all of the players who started out as crappy third basemen whose careers went nowhere :-)

 

1966 Bob Jones Third baseman (Dawson, Georgia) 20 [19]
1967 Steve Brye Third baseman St. Elizabeth High School
(Oakland, California) 17 [20]
1976 Jamie Allen* Third baseman Davis High School
(Yakima, Washington) 10 [29]
1981 Mike Sodders Third baseman Arizona State University
(Tempe, Arizona) 11 [34]
1991 Scott Stahoviak Third baseman Creighton University

Odd list.  At least 2 of those teams have big bucks to spend.

 

Not Twins.....

 

Suzuki pulled! I wonder who traded for him.

Make a prediction so you can have a chance at the Dairy Queen coupon.

List seems incomplete ;-)

I thought he said the Red Sox, too.

Impressive.

Bunt wasn't a bad option.  I just don't remember Buxton successfully executing one.
