Glad the Twins aren't playing the Sox under a full moon this series so Pedroia can't fully transform...

Was any player more disappointed when the Commissioner canceled plans for a 2017 MLB game in London?

That's a requirement in you're moms basement?

There we go. Someone got the joke. I was afraid my advanced age made the reference too old. 

"Reference too old" is not likely to be a problem here, friend.

[PDX Twin]

Only the opinion of an old fogy, but it seems like almost every team in MLB has a designated "Stupid Beard Guy." And every European football team has a "Stupid Hair Guy."

And if you want to back up your "advanced age" claim, be prepared to provide convincing details of your most memorable mastodon hunt.

Since I know that this girl exists and since I know that she can do this stuff. 

 

There is no excuse for Blair Walsh. 

[Aggies7]

Rosario has looked laughably overmatched at the plate

[PDX Twin]

And Eddie is playing tonight because ............

Coach who can't pronounce "offensive"

Well his defense saved 2 runs so...

[LaBombo]

There's swinging at a pitch out of the strike zone, and then there's swinging at a pitch out of your time zone. I think Rosario made up his mind to offer at that last Sale pitch during the flight to Boston last night.

Let's get this guy some runs

[Squirrel]

Yes it does.

 

But after all these years... I've decided that "Ish" is anything liquid like. If I'm wrong... It doesn't matter because I'm going with that so I don't end up diving back into that pool.

 

Diving into that liquid pool of ish?

 

Ick.

[Blake]

 

I gotta remember not to not check in on game threads until the third or fourth inning. You guys tend to get a little hysterical.

Yes, we do have, collectively, a great sense of humour.

[Darius]

I don't trust any statistic (defensive runs saved, per FSN broadcast) that tells me Mookie Betts is a better defender than Byron Buxton.

Greg "Pulled Quad" Coleman of the Vikes begs to differ.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Tuba concert?

Playing tuba. But just ordinary rehearsal. Where we get donuts and coffee at break, and i get to catch up score. I am but one of three tubaists...

Dick says Keuchel on the DL with neck strain. Beard too heavy?

DRS is a rolling one year window, while UZR is supposed to use multiple years of data.

 

Or something like that. Either way it's pretty clear that Buxton is better.

Swinging out of the ol shoes tonight
