HYPOTHETICAL: 

Let's say you're Randy Rosario.. Maybe you'll have a good career. Maybe you'll only pitch 5 innings total in the majors. Would you groove a pitch to Pujols in order to be on his highlight reel for the 600th HR? 

Also, in this scenario, the bases are empty, and the Twins are up 27-0.

  • Or, just have one of the Twins relievers throw you toward home plate and let an Astros hitter launch you there for free. We have the technology.

Twins up 27-0? Yes, yes I would.

The two things I missed on my edits of the original. I flat out missed the wrong date. Heh. And the spelling of Wile. I knew it didn't look right in my first pass through and was going to check, then events at home made me forget.

 

Yeah and I basically threw the opener together in about 10 minutes. No time for a review. 

 

I shoulder the blame. 

 

Well me and whoever came up with the odd spelling of the Coyote and whoever insisted on 7 meaning July instead of June. 

 

 

Greatest/top angel of all time???? Farrah Fawcett HANDS DOWN!!!!!

Well played sir!

Good Hypothetical, except Molly's going with the experienced guy in that scenario......

Now if we were down 27, then your hypothetical applies

I think that's an old veteran kind of move. The competitive fire will still dominate the decision for a young'un.

 

I'd like to change my vote. I try to strike him out, and brag about it, never mentioning how old he was when I did so....

This is what I was going to go with too.  Who knows if I'd ever face him again.

I'd give him a little chin music first, hoping he'd throw out his back while dodging the bean ball. Then I'd give him heat away, hoping the sore back shortens his reach. Unless of course he attacks the mound with his bat in hand after that first pitch. In that case I'd ask him to sign my cast. Which I could probably sell on e-bay for a gazillion dollars, which of course I would have to give to the doctors who put me back together... Maybe I just walk the guy.

Is Craig Breslow available the next couple of days? He's wile e. enough of a veteran to pull this off.

That was back when domestic abuse was considered to be funny.

I aim for my catcher's glove. That's the best i can hope for.

 

In high school i got a well deserved nick name that reflected my barn door accuracy.

 

It might have improved somewhat by the time i would be called u, but i wouldn't count on it...

It's already been established that Molitor wouldn't use a player of Rosario's ilk in that situation.

 

Was anyone else disappointed that Busenitz wasn't called up to face the team that traded him away? We could almost have a reunion between Santiago, Busenitz, Meyer, and Nolasco.

 

The Angels have 2 MLB players, and the Twins only have 1 (!!!!!!) 

The Twins lost ANOTHER trade!

In the famous words of June Cleaver to her husband Ward - "Don't you think you were a little hard on the Beaver last night?" . Which got me thinking about...

Hey now. Children visit this site.

I think you're implying Mr. Breslow has an endless supply of pitches purchased from ACME. Right?

 

What is this "sense of humor" you speak of?

What's the dirtiest line delivered on television that wasn't censured? ... forget it, someone beat me to the punch...

I just noticed the Angels have 5 former Twins on their 25 man roster - Nolasco, Meyer, Revere, Robinson, and Guerra. None of them are doing that great, however.

If you're a GM with a good prospect at single-A, give FalVine a jingle and see what they say.

So a sense of humor... Is what they don't have?

 

I don't get it, big Dan.

Been a while since i wrote a jingle... Let's see what i got.

 

Ya throw the fast ball in

Ya throw the curveball out.

Ya spike a slider in the dirt

and ya strike the batter.

 

Ya wave the catcher off

while ignoring the dugout.

That's when they take you out!

 

Not my best, but it is kimda jinglish... Think they'll like it?

I don't get it, big Dan.

You questioned what a sense of humor was. Naturally, I assumed you were from the FBI and pulled up this clip of you in action.

Lot of admiration of Pujols, which is deserved, even though he is now a DH-only who has worse stats than Kennys Vargas, but note that he has four years at $24M per left on his contract after this year. Can you imagine how much criticism he'd get if he had only one more year at $23M?
