Hughes will be taking the mound in the bottom of the third.  Enjoy it while it lasts.  

See?  I KNEW it would last!!

Oh by the way.

 

Good job with the game thread intro!

 

Very noble.

Don't bench him. Cut him.

That's right. We are kings of the waiver wire.

 

Hope we can reel in a keeper.

What do you call a King's flatulence?

 

A Noble Gas.

hypothetical...Detroit puts Cabrera on waivers.  He's owed $184M over the 6 seasons following 2017, with two more $30M vesting options (based on MVP voting).

 

Do the Twins put in a claim?

A ham sandwich walks into a bar after a long day out in the sun.... 

He tells the bartender, "Give me a shot of your top shelf vodka, stat." 

The bartender says, "Sorry, we don't serve food here." 

I think the Twins should buy low.

If the Twins got Cabrera, they'd have nowhere obvious for him to play, so he'd have to go to Rochester to prove that he can still hit.

 

That's right. We are kings of the waiver wire.

Hope we can reel in a keeper.

 

I'm guessing this guy's available, but I'm not sure how effective he'd be.

Someone needs to hand Sano a book on Newton's three laws.

Okay, I may be proven wrong, but so far Giminez has looked. . . decent for a second catcher.

 

It's a joke Alexa told me recently. they are all like that....

Why did the elephant paint his toenails red?

 

So he can hide in the cherry tree.

why is Sano out? did he try to steal? Lead off too much? Inquiring minds want to know.

 

Someone needs to hand Sano a book on Newton's three laws.

1.  Never, under any circumstances, let yourself be talked into taking a physics class.

 

2.  In the impossibility that you did not follow the first of Newton's laws, make friends with the Asian kid.

 

3.  Don't slide late.

 

Did I get those correct?

Damnit you guys.... I burnt my Hawaiian pizza over the lunch hour. 




The oven needed to be on Aloha temperature..... 

I love physics. Just can't picture equations in 3D, or I'd probably be a physicist right now. Oh, and math, that part was hardish also. And the esoteric advanced parts, over my head. But ya, pretty sure I could be a physicist right now...

Or play "Paradise by the Dashboard Lights" for him. Miguel Sano learns from Meat Loaf!

Stay steady Eddie!

What did the teacher with googly eyes say? 

Buxton laid off a low breaking ball!

This has to be a historically bad start for Buck

I'm watching the Detroit broadcast.  Comedy of baserunning mistakes.

 

Sano had a lead, ball in the dirt.  Sano starts back to first, then notices the ball is rolling away behind the catcher.  Basically takes two steps in place, then runs to second.

 

Gets to second slightly ahead of a high throw slides under it.  Big sweep tag that ends up with the fielder holding the glove over his head, apparently yelling "Ole".

 

Sano overslides the bag by, oh, a couple of feet, then tries to slide backwards.  Fielder tries to tag him, then apparently hits is foot just before the foot finally makes contact again with the bag.

 

Not a pretty play.

Buxton is pulling his head. A lot. On every swing. And on non-swings he's not watching the ball either. He needs to sit until he can re-learn the "keep your eye on the ball" rule we all learn in Little League.

Then struck out on one

 

Yeah, one out of three is bad (even if it's progress).

Haha! 

He said "Darn it snydes, I just have no control over my pupils!"

Looks to me to be well on his way to a quality one...

few things on the baseball field are worse than stepping up to the plate thinking: i cannot strike out again.

No second Meat Loaf reference?  I'm disappointed.

Either he's going to have a short and bad career or a really unique one.
